i've noticed that most people that would correct the way others present most corrections like this basically say: "I'm sooOOoo ignorant of my hypocrisy." that's something you are drawing attention to.
That isn't what I said.
This is where elaboration and clear communication are useful.:)
considering i have linked to such posts, that post itself fulfills all necessary requirements of ignorant hypocrisy
No, pasting what I already said is not an explanation.
offering a correction to someone for offering a correction, and stating that you would not bring attention to offering such corrections, as you come off as "sooOOoo smart"
I didn't offer a correction. I also didn't try to come off as 'smart'. I also didn't make an editorial comment, nor did I say editorial comments are useless.
Oh, come on, I've already susssed that it was you. I can hear you banging away at your keyboard in the next room. I'm just glad it sounds like both hands are working the kb this time.
Stating facts? I dunno about that. You're repeating yourself a lot, but the word 'fact' doesn't carry any meaning until you can clearly articulate your thoughts.
Ah, so you mean you did reply to the wrong guy and now you can't find a way to twist what you originally said into something that sounds like it belongs in the context of what I said.

Warfare? Nice! Haha
I'm not gonna help you when Mom wants to know why you're up so late.
It's pretty clear why you don't wanna answer.
Heh. *clickity clickity click* *mouseclick* *your reply shows up under my post*
Maybe you should wait 10 minutes between typing and clicking submit.
Seriously Tim, that's our mom we're talking about. You're gonna regret it.

Now we're back at the beginning again. Clarify.
Right, you've said that. Why?
Oh, come on, I've already susssed that it was you. I can hear you banging away at your keyboard in the next room. I'm just glad it sounds like both hands are working the kb this time.
Oh, good, you've found proof then?
You would have successfully proven that I was an ignorant hypocrite, if only you had linked to a post where I was being an ignorant hypocrite.
That'd be less disturbing if you weren't my brother.
Yep, quite possibly. But your post still wasn't clear, could you elaborate?
you responded to someone making editorial comments with an editorial comment claiming editorial comments are useless
^^ I still didn't do this.
and nothing something that you would do.
Seriously, is English your native language?

Well it's hard to not be ignorant, I still haven't been able to decipher your point!
(psst, you still haven't gotten to my other reply here...)
Well I do have one thing going for me, I can communicate clearly. ;)
Didn't like where the other conversation was going?
Uh, yeah, I understand what *I* said. Heh.
Is english your native language? I'm just asking, I think we're just having a translation issue, here.
Oh yes, I worked that out ages ago. I'm just having a little fun. :)
I do appreciate the heads up, though.
i mean exactly what i said, and always have.
It's the 'what you said' bit that's unclear.
you responded to someone making editorial comments with an editorial comment claiming editorial comments are useless
Actually, no, I didn't. Heh.
Ah, so you mean you did reply to the wrong guy and now you can't find a way to twist what you originally said into something that sounds like it belongs in the context of what I said.
Okie, we'z all clear now. Thanks!
Okay, thanks for clarifying that. I'm still not sure what you meant in your first post. Could you elaborate?
perhaps you haven't even yet realized the hypocrisy you are actively ignoring...
Nice attempt at pulling up... Heh.
