Well, I'll skip the link, but I gather you have caught me out: reading your input with compassion, when it was designed to waste my and the rest of the lists time. Touche. You do choose peculiar victories.
It seems you have graduated from being a poser to hurtful deception. (your hate has made you strong, you jedi) Sut Tzu's art of war (at least the PDA version :) starts with the sentence "Deception is the basis of all warfare". I'll decline the offer to war -- who knows, you might even get me to decline any other type engagement for fear of another trap.
