Jeez, where's Alicorn when you need her? We need someone to make a point about how, "Just because a woman sleeps with you once, doesn't meen she's inconsistent by ..." and then show the mapping to the logic being used here.

What, exactly, are you trying to accomplish here? Your last interaction with Alicorn made it pretty clear that projecting non-sequitur sexual references onto her was unwelcome. Are you trolling?

The sexual references in particular are a subset of a broad class of things from SilasBarta that I do not welcome. That class of things is "anything involving me and SilasBarta directly interacting ever again". Just so no one interprets that last interaction too finely.
