      But let me guess, were wrong.

      Considering there are 3 of you and you all have different explanations, at least 2 have to be wrong. But I gave you the link to their reasoning, which is not what any of the three have said.

          The display was made for the sole purpose of being destroyed.

          So it was made for a sole purpose, but now multiple reasons can be right. You’re now contradicting yourself.

          The problem isn’t that I’m trolling, it’s that you’re too busy trying to be right rather than trying to figure out what’s right.

              I’m too busy trying to be right?

              You literally just claimed that it was for a sole purpose, and then when I pointed out that that can’t be true if something else is also it’s intent, you belittled me and claimed I must be trolling…so yes. It’s so hard for you to admit you are wrong that you have to claim this very straightforward point based on your straightforward language is “mental gymnastics.”

              But don’t worry, you’re so far committed to me being stupid that it would be absolutely shocking for you to admit that I might be right here, so I don’t expect you to do so. I’m just wondering how long you’ll try to pretend you didn’t contradict, instead of just slinking off.

                  We can all improve in that area, so I will certainly work on it.

                  However, I don’t see what that has to do with this conversation.
