Alan,

Well, I must say I hardly expect YOU to feel differently. After all, you have 
been the target of it so often it must really bite (the origin of the word 
"mordant") by this point. 

I would congratulate you on your capacity for self-parody, but alas, that 
appears to be a natural gift, and one that is practiced without intent.
