To clarify the sentence containing the word 'malicious', I said it only feels that way. You are in no way responsible for my own feelings.

I only recently read the phrase 'malicious misunderstanding' yesterday. And then I heard it again, immediately after, in a song. You see, I'm not a very original thinker. A lot of thoughts I've had, many others have had before me. Most of the time, I'm trying to understand what's going on.

I watch two people argue, and saw one I wished to aspire to be more like, and one I wished to stop being like. I hope I can change to be more like the OP, whose article brought me down this little rabbit hole.

I am not selling anything. I don't sell things. Quite fanatically. I am also not better than you, MM. In no way, shape, or form am I a better person, more eloquent, more capable at writing.

Your words FELT like deliberate misrepresentation (thus the use of the word malicious misunderstanding, as per how I understand the phrase) to me, because of the use of hysteria, because of the attacks and belittling. You are allowed to do things, I'm allowed to feel things, we're both allowed to express then, and respond, etc, of course, of course, yet....

I really don't know what you're trying to saw beyond 'I am transparent' and it seems like you're implying I'm not being truthful, or I'm being deceitful. Maybe I'm /only/ inferring that. It's hard to tell. Either way, you are allowed to mistranslate me. If you'd like confirmation that I'm not perfect, or if you'd like some weaknesses and mistakes of mine to compare to your own self, here you go:

Never finished hs

Never finished a suicide attempt (just a little truthful humor)

Most of my teeth are missing. including front teeth

I have gaping, seeping wounds on my buttocks and coccyx,

I have a cyst growing on my pineal gland, putting pressure on my brain

I'm afraid of men who are larger than me

I bingewatch tv constantly and procrastinate things of dire importance.

This should be enough ammunition that you should feel well armed, and capable of destroying me through comments. Active defense often begs an offense, but you can just have all my arms.
