It was an honest mistake. Whether you want to believe me or not is your choice. Block or not your choice, too. But one thing is not your choice: you can't deny that I am an independent thinker. Otherwise you would not have conversed with me for quite a bit in the past. Do you honestly think that I care whether someone takes me as male or female? And do you really think someone with an independent but quite self-assured mindset cares at all whether they represent themselves to others as male or female? I for one could not care less whether you are male or female. This closes the case for me, do whatever you have to do. Despite our sometimes fierce disagreements I do value your take on many things.
How do you make a mistake like that unless you can’t keep track of your online story. You aren’t independent. You are like a hipster. You think you are independent but you are cookie cutter, you just don’t know the shape. I don’t care what you are. I do care when you pretend to be something you aren’t on an online forum. It shows a lack of integrity- which is fine but means nothing you say can be treated as true if you lie about something basic and largely trivial
I don't apologize for anything in case you are expecting that. You can drag this out or put me on ignore. Your choice. I mentioned the error. I don't owe you an explanation. If you truly believe others on online forums and how they present themselves then you are much more naive than I thought. By such expectation you would probably need to put 95% of folks on ignore. I stay home when I like. I go fishing when I like and weather permits. I work on my trading models when I like. I live with family in paradise and feel incredibly privileged. I have not watched TV in over 15 years. I choose my own news sources. I disagree with most bullshit in life. I am extremely truth and fact driven, something that nowadays causes you to collide with a majority of people. If that's not independent for someone under 50 then I don't know what is. Anyway feel free to do what you must do, just don't drag this on. I said my piece.
I don’t expect you to apologize. You are dishonest in your representation here which makes you no better than the degenerates on this site. Your ideas aren’t original regardless of how much time you fish. They’ve been spouted on here before by people with suspiciously similar writing style as you.
Come off your little arrogant and egotistical horse. As if you are the one with innovative or refreshing ideas. You are not, you are just a little too full of yourself. Treat others with the respect they deserve and you get the respect. But in most threads you come across as highly abrasive. I am as well, but the difference is that you can't take it and commit character assassination and lose yourself.
Arrogant? I never claimed to be “an independent thinker.” I also have never told a lie on this forum.
