He clearly indicated that his use of such language was intentional. He also admitted to lying in an attempt to harm my reputation. So while I cannot be sure - no one can be except himself - a Bayesian approach would point to probabilistic likelihood of deliberate use of provocative ad hominem language as a trolling technique.

LOL. You're on LW, y'know, not Lifehack. People like me will look at you taking a random collection of keywords, throwing them all into a blender set on high, and then regurgitating them onto a page -- and be not impressed.

To quote My Cousin Vinny, "...everything that guy just said is bullshit" X-)

Don't be dismissive. If you disagree, make an actual argument and lay out your disagreements. Thanks!

Don't be dismissive.

Why not? A lot of things ought be dismissed.
