In any given conversation, there is a specific floor level in which you would jump out the window to escape.

This is a 1.5 floor level conversation. It’s not even a conversation, really — you’ve assumed we’re all having a homogenous argument about the validity of the epipen and the brown paper bag, and you’re informing us of our wrongness about something we do not even assert.

But the worst part of it is, you’ve replaced the original poster with me, replying to my comment — which was merely intended to correct a harmless misunderstanding you’ve made — as though I posted the original thought.

What is it you expect me to reply with here? A defense thesis for the original poster? An acceptance that the original poster’s opinion is crushed because of the science you supposedly brought to the table?

I have no doubt that whatever response you have cooking up now will turn this into a 2nd floor one. I’ll be on my way while I can make a soft safe landing, but good luck with whatever it is you hoped to do here.



Perhaps in the format of linear conversation the response was not directed at you but simply continuing the train of thought of the original with respect to the original poster.

But you do you.
