Quote Wombat: How pompous of you to believe that your approval is what validates another's reasoned argument!
Quote Housemate: I'm not suggesting you 'need' or seek anyones approval but I do respect fully what you have said and how you have said it.
You made a good case ... I would respond with my input but do not want to be accused of ... allsorts as has happened in the recent past.

Quote Wombat: I find it very tedious that if I state to you a few 'home truths' it is overbearing and rude - but when you do the same to me - it is simply putting a little upstart in their place! I do detest such double-standards!
Housemate: LOL!!

Quote Wombat: Oh - and the 10,000 posts thing still stands - so you will be pleased to hear that you will be rid of me sooner rather than later! That should help make things considerably less tedious for you!
Housemate: Why do you imagine (apart from as explained previously) I am indulging you so avidly?
