You can't hear contempt in your own voice?

To be perfectly frank (yeah, I'm sure you appreciate it...) I hear contempt in the voices of almost everyone in these threads.  I'll include myself in that, even though I did -and continue to- suggest everyone could be a bit more humble.  

I'm not entirely sure what has provoked it, or how much of it is a defensiveness-projection thing, but if we had a smug-o-meter handy right now, the needle would be off the charts.  At this point I've become too annoyed with everyone to care what their original stance was.  See, now I am being smug...  This diary is a smug-magnet.  I suggest everyone slowly back away from it.

Come, my friends, 'Tis not too late to seek a newer world.

Yeah, I suggested that in the last thread, for all the good it did.
