(2,570 posts)and since that is all in the form of "last word" efforts, all that leads back to is the point where your impotence first materialized.
just because you blazed a trail hardly means the destination you arrived at was worth the effort, and if your last response could be considered that destination, then indeed, it's been a wasted one on your part.
Just because you didn't feel the sting like someone suffering from a congenital insensitivity to pain of the physical kind, hardly means that one didn't occur before or with this effort. The racist is pretty immune to that charge/use of that label in terms of a "sting" value, but that hardly undermines the validity of the charge.
I'd guess when you were a little boy you did stupid things like kick a big rock that stubbed your toe and made you cry, whereupon you declared to those laughing at you that it "didn't hurt" too, no?
well, you're doing something similar here.
The "last word" game usually represents the tears and the denials to be found in that scenario, and is usually generated by the same sense of impotence that results in the subject change/kicking of the rock that you own here.
well done "sir"
have a good day
