laughing at people isn't having a different opinion, it's being juvenile and a bully

I was an early campaigner for VG to be RMer of the year based purely on his wanton enthusiasm for art that he loves. You're a sensitive idiot!
oops, mask slipped? I don't care if you voted for an RMer to be president, you're still laughing at people for liking things, then saying you're only expressing opinions; ehen someone says you're talking out of your backside, you call them "sensitive"

ball busting is my love language, and I bust VG's often because he's one of my hands-down favorite posters. But nice of you to try and stick up for him I guess?
of course, I'm a human being, it's what I do

MH is right- this is classic bully behavior. Dude with 45,000 posts who knows he has a crew who will defend him laughs at people expressing an alternative opinion. Sure, it's not going to hurt VG at all, but it's going to affect other posters who are more sensitive to that, and who have multiple times made that clear. Get over yourself, trag. When you talk about what you know, we listen, but you are better than this.

It's funny... this song keeps getting better for me, too. And it was no more apparent than listening to Running and then without any prompting Dark Matter just started playing and I was like, "oh hell yeah!"

Which, again, is not a slight on Running (which I like). Just funny because I don't think I realized how much I like DM.
