2. I don't find it hard to believe.
You have a brilliant, creative mind.

However, your penchant for revenge on a very specific demographic is disturbing.

3. Of all the science teachers in the world...
Edited on Tue Jul-22-08 05:51 PM by Kutjara
...the fascist Irish ones are definitely the worst. She's quite right to single them out.

5. Being Irish is not a bad thing, nor is being a science teacher.
Those are merely catagories used to narrow down the number of fascists implied in my "Take that!" remark. Of the three things I used to classify this particular person, only "fascist" is a bad one.

9. Well, I'm Irish* and I once taught science...
...so I know whereof I speak. :evilgrin:

* Actually, I'm only half Irish, but it's the bad half.

4. All fascists suck.
However, one fascist who is also an Irish science teacher particularly sucks. I thought that by including nationality and occupation I could narrow down the number of people included in the category; in fact, for all I know, he might be the only fascist Irish science teacher in the world. And I would also say that succeeding in getting published is one of the less-destructive and less-distubing forms of revenge. Don'cha think? :shrug:

7. True.
Many people go farther than "Take that!"

I retract my implication and commend you instead.
