Let me get this straight. You think "Reality check time" is "a rather
nice way"?!?

Maybe there's a regional language difference at work here. Maybe
there's a generation gap at work here. I can't really say about that.
What I CAN say is "Reality Check" comes across to me as a HUGE insult.
It's not just a mild "You're a bit off target here" or even a flat
"You're wrong", it's "YOU ARE SO F**KING MESSED UP THAT YOU ARE OUT OF
TOUCH WITH REALITY, I.E. YOU ARE CRAZY".

It's also a HELL of a condescending attitude - that he gets to define
what reality actually is. It says it's over and done with, that no
discussion is allowed and that my opinion is worthless.

Well, enough is enough. It doesn't even matter at this point who is
right and who is wrong. It doesn't matter if it's a regional
difference in language, a generation gap or something else. It's clear
that I won't find the type of support and encouragement that I'm
looking for in this newsgroup. I'll look elsewhere.
