    There is also this other type of nt person-- the kind who has got the Debate Brain. They’re rhetorically inclined, if you know know I mean.

    They will listen to your entire account and then locate the one word which, if misconstrued, would spin the meaning of your account to the most uncharitable interpretation possible. They will focus on that ONE word, ignoring all of the surrounding context as just… be such a bother.

    I believe these people are either deeply hurt or some pathetic form of social vampire.

    Thank you for reading my rant.

      Interact with these people the same way as you would interact with the police. Stay superficially polite, but also be as unhelpful to them as you can get away with.

      Also, the sentiment that they are bastards applies. (sorry, you triggered my emotions somehow and now i’m angry)
