You are trying way too hard to sound smart. It's too much. I can't take it seriously. Stop trying so hard. A lot of your wordage is redundant and over extended. Some of your sentences completely contradict themselves. It looks like a sincere attempt to sound intelligent and educated but it's quite painful to read.

Three things:
a) I write on the fly here quite a bit. It’s kind of impossible to be “trying too hard” when you’re writing a lengthy response in a short amount of time with little to no editing.
b) Because my initial post was a personal musing framed for a larger social context, I was very careful in response to separate myself from that consideration. So yes, I can see why someone who is only skeptically reading half the post would find my words redundant. I make no claims that this is my best writing nor peer-reviewed journal worthy.
c) If my stream of consciousness came out far too wordy for your post-doctorate level of perfection, take my disclaimer or leave it. I’m sorry we all can’t be so refined. I’ll be sure to send over a rough draft next time — if you care to present a name or face to the discussion table, anon.
- I suppose it would be beating the point to death to illustrate the ironic inability in taking someone seriously when criticism is presented behind the curtain of anonymity.

Don’t waste your time replying to anons because if they really had any heart, they’d reveal themselves. Trains of thought captured whilst on the fly are both intriguing and powerful, we get what your doing so never feel like you need to explain to an anon
