Heh. Oops. Rightfully called on that mis-used turn of phrase. The thought I meant to convey was "make yourself feel better". A subtle but very significant difference, I think.
In any case - yeah, I am trying to ascribe motives to your actions. I'm trying things on to see if they fit, because the obvious-to-me interpretations just aren't flattering and I really want to think better of you than that. In fact I generally do think better of you than the reactions I've been having to this thread. So I'm trying to figure out the disconnect.
Unfortunately, this is pretty clearly well passed the point of rational discussion. Sorry that I managed to push your buttons quite so far. I admit to intentionally pushing, it's how I interact with the world, but I didn't intend to get you quite so lathered up, and for that much, I apologize.
