"I can't believe everyone is taking this comment seriously."

They didn't. My comment wasn't an argument, it just stated my position. Someone else replied with a different position, and I explained further. In an ideal world, I would've fully explained my position in the first place, but it wasn't worth the time if no one disagreed.

I do call things "silly" too much.

Well, terribly sorry if I called it wrong. In any case I think it came out a bit meaner than I had intended. I dunno...it can be tricky deciding what's safe to assume and what has to be fully worded and explained out....
