Sure, because your sarcastic "I'm making my own peak oil story [wherein peak oil is not bad at all!]" wasn't meant to goad him or get a reaction at all.
The only reaction I wanted was an interest in reading my fucking story, which In fact I first began talking about several weeks before I ever mentioned it here. If I had wanted to argue about shit, I would have fucking started it in the proper forum.
Tell me, since when is an oil spill covering thousands of square miles a good thing? Since when the global cooling killing off the world food supply a good thing? Since when is sea level dropping, crippling the entire world system of sea based trade a good thing? In fact my peak oil story would have presented a world that is even worse off then in this one.
My story had and has no political point. I am simply taking several issues which have existed in history before, in the form of ice ages (cooling + sea level drop) and massive industrial pollution (oil bubbling out of the ground really happened in some areas) and exaggerating them for dramatic effect.
Of course you didn’t care about any of that and certainly didn’t even begin to think about the implications of the world I laid out. You just wanted to look righteous by butting into a conversation that does not involve you in any way shape or form.
You
could just accept Nit's admonishment and apologize, you know. Machismo isn't lost at all.
How about no. How about instead you apologize for your attempt to slander me by misrepresenting my work, which you could not possibly have ever seen.
And Nitram, you can just delete or split all this if you want, it would be better for the thread.
