Well, it may be worth another shot. Perhaps the neighbors think so
too. Perhaps you've swaddled yourself in a touch too much Smug.

And yet you get to church. Or is it an internet church?
Your circumstances about having a car available to you don't have much
to do with your profound laziness and people's general apathy about
responding to your whims.

And as you can see, I'm not talking much about the facts that are
available for you to look up. Exactly as I said I'm doing, I'm
pointing out that your statements are not only incorrect but foolishly
so, and I'm pointing out in a minimal way the facts that show that and
telling you where you can look up those facts to verify them for
yourself. I think that is sufficient attention to be paid to you.

Yes, it is. And so you see, the railroad tracks, which are connected
to the moving earth, are also moving. Don't you think so too?
