Actually, it's for the same reason that you and everyone else here posts anything at all: boredom/procrastination. Just another in a long line of attempts to avoid responsibility.

I was pointing out the irony. :) Especially the most ironic part: my point wasn't supposed to be "mostly about Heywood," as others think, but others turned it into that. And with no help from Heywood himself, save the initial reaction. To me, that is the most amusing part of this whole debacle, if you can even call it that.

Other ironic points that others seem to have missed:

"I never called him names" -- until after he called me a "career politician," so I called my posts an unofficial CI/S op and then named him and others as "subversive elements"

name-calling a mentality left behind in Kindergarten, followed by "tactless little shit"

"fucking _vulgar_" -- perhaps the most sig-worthy?

Anyway, Vanessa is correct: this is spam compared to the constructive solution of merely discussing GAFF itself (i.e., badfic). So, here ends this line of thought.
