No seriously...
I was warned at one point that we were not playing well together and that I needed to check myself. How does that insinuate anything negative against you? You've got a reasonably stellar reputation around this place as far as I can tell - it is only in your dealings with me that things ever get a little less than professional - whereas I'm prone to inciting this kind of behavior from readers other than you. I think the conclusions there are easy to draw and wouldn't deny those obvious implications anyhow. But believe me - I try to keep it light and relatively positive and tongue in cheek with you because otherwise, neither one of us seems to know when to stop. I bring out the worst in you. When it blows up past a certain point, I genuinely and generally regret it. I think it damages our reputation the both of us. Most of the posts where we've gone at it in a particular viscous fashion, they're not my highest read posts according to the score-cards, and when they show up linked outside of TR, it is never at sites with very positive opinions or outlooks.
