<p>Ah the irony!</p>
<p>Gambadent - This thread, you rightfully asserted, did have as its purpose a light hearted intent. There are two type of posts here. One is the type that complains about chocolate syrup caps. The other well…I’ll let you speak for yourselves…</p>

<p>Who’s being “needlessly antagonistic” again?</p>
<p>The reason I said that the posts were semi-illiterate and I questioned whether they had read Rand is because…they were! Expletives, half-formed opinions, and no explanations as to <em>why</em> you hated her turns this into an orgy of hate without a rational basis. Those that smeared her writing use words like “crap”, “stupid”, “****ing” etc. People form opinions all the time without having knowledge of what they feel so passionate about. The reason I responded at all to this “outpouring” as you called it, was because I have a rather high opinion of her and I was genuinely surprised at your reactions. If you believe I was insulting you I apologize. I would truly enjoy having a rational discussion with you about the merits of Rand, her works, and your opinions. Just not an unexplained hate fest. If you would like to start another thread about it, if you feel that it would be inappropriate in this one, by all means do so. If you don’t want to continue this discussion that’s fine too.</p>
