You still have nothing.

Tricky word games and name-calling to the contrary.

A friend of mine does with his hands what you do with your keyboard. It's called misdirection, but in his case he uses it to entertain people with card tricks, for which hobby he is paid. He makes people look elsewhere to disguise his real action. You play little word games to disguise the fact that you have nothing to contribute to the conversation. Someone may even find it entertaining, though I doubt anyone will ever pay you for it.

Perhaps you will learn not to come into other people's neighborhoods and jump into an intellectual exchange with personal attacks. Perhaps you will learn to discuss the subject, not the speaker, of whose character you are totally ignorant. I doubt it, but hope springs eternal.

If you would like the last word, you may have it. You are no longer worth my time.
