It's like a poorly-veiled 'humble brag' @MLClark
"Because I'm a self-proclaimed expert at this, let me share my knowledge with you, and show you what a genius I am!" ๐
๐ฏ. Although, when it happens, I also find myself worrying about whether *I* come off like that to any others. I hope not, but tripping into error is always a possibility.
(So do feel free to swat me with a newspaper if you ever catch me doing that here, eh? Or a spritz bottle! ๐ "It knocks it off with the ego-driven commentary on someone else's creative content, or else it gets the hose again!")
So far, so good, @MLClark ๐ ๐
@cmskiera
It REALLY is!
But also - why let the person giving it live rent-free in my head? Being insulted by it just means letting them take up even more of my precious time and energy than their original comment already did. ๐
