    I’m not angry, despite how desperately you want me to be, nothing in my responses even shows signs of anger.

    And I dontbhage you, despite how much you want me to, I just pity you.

    If you really have a family you are happy with, would you not rather spend your time with them? Making nice memories instead of trying to get a reaction out of strangers on the internet?

    And I’m not going to block you just yet because I feel like there is a chance, however small, that I can actually get through to you, even if you want admit it to me directly, and make you realise that annoying strangers on the internet is not a productive use of your time and that you could be doing something better. Something that makes you and others actually happier and more content instead of just spreading mild annoyance eith your ““debates””

      I post on an internet forum when I’m alone after work. Lots of people do that, except you’re trying to paint it as a moral fault just because you don’t like the topics I am discussing. Cut out the preachy “I’m just trying to make you a better person” bullshit that you’re trying to use as justification for continuing to respond to me. You haven’t made one salient point other than whining. And I had you on the mark about poor impulse control.
