the term “cake day” just makes me think of r*ddit. I’ve seen Lemon Day going around, but we probably want to avoid affiliation with lemon party.

not that we can tell anybody what to do anyway, and each instance could even have its own. anyway, it needs to be something that obviously means “anniversary” and doesn’t require explanation otherwise it’ll just be annoying

    you’re acting like you just started with “it doesn’t matter”. that’s not where we started. you walked in here telling people to “be normal”, so you opened with a factually incorrect statement followed by condescension.

    your answer can be whatever you want it to be. but if you proclaim “i don’t care” & then continue to engage on the topic, including doing additional research, for the next 14 hours, people are going to notice that you do actually care.

      dude you’re the one continuing the engagement. you’re counting hours and shit like I’ve been constantly thinking about this when in reality i made a comment and was ready to forget this insignificant fucking thing but you’re the one who keeps prolonging the thread. you ask additional questions and when i try to answer them it’s supposedly me being engaged and caring so much for x hours, x being updated with every subsequent comment of yours, that I’m doing additional research. it’s called looking it up in the dictionary because someone specifically asked and not finding an entry.

      turns out i was right in being condescending. just be normal dude, either carry a conversation or don’t. but don’t come out here with inane shit and then exclaim how it’s me who’s invested … for replying to your comments that you commented.

        you’re an insulting little shit. I was vaguely entertained, but now you’re like a rock in my shoe. you were factually incorrect, and you were condescending about it. go fuck yourself

        dude you’re typing paragraphs at a time trying to convince somebody, yourself apparently, that you’re not the one driving engagement here. I don’t even know what you’re talking about at this point but it takes two to tango bro

          I’m verbose, what can I say…

          also at least i type one comment at a time, eh. I’d say you have to give up the claim that the other party is driving the engagement once you reply to the same comment twice.
