### - lol you're an idiot thang, and so 'literal' that the 'subtlety' of
the conversation he and i are having is completely beyond your
understanding/ken (which btw is nothing even remotely like what you're
suggesting)

being entirely literal (and i mean entirely lol) you take everything
literally, there's only black & white for you, and, as a result, you often
miss the whole point completely because very standard human things like
sarcasm, irony & satire (to name just a few from that whole spectrum)
aren't at all in your vocabulary, so you misunderstand and end up looking
like a complete moron every time talking shit while everyone else stands
there scratching their heads wondering wtf he's going-on about now ffs
haha :)))

and while i fully realise that it's not your personal fault that you're
like this and have this life-long handicap to deal with, after ALL these
years you STILL make NO effort whatsoever to compensate for your
blindness, which after a while just becomes lameness mate... boring even?

the solution for which is actually very simple: if you DON'T understand
something then ALL ya have to do is fucking... ASK!

ASK what people MEAN and they might TELL you!!! and if it's NOT different
from what you FIRST thought/imagined THEN have a perhaps more justified go
at them!

the alternative is to just leap the the wrong conclusion 99.9% of the
time, as you continually do, and thus always end up looking like some
half-demented ignorant flag-waving arsehole haha :D
