Personally I think starting this thread, and then running away and not answering questions that were directed at him makes DD seem either a coward, which I'm guessing he isn't, or someone trying to troll for a reaction 
Possibly, although he is responding to other threads (which I see popping up in my "Unread Posts" screen). Maybe he's just busy.
Of course, you are correct.
I do have two young children that still expect their only daddy to read to them in all of his mysterious stage drama-trained voices as they prepare for bed.
I would not miss this amazing and absolutely engaging daily experience/adventure for any amount of passing forum thread activity.
I did keep about ten or so threads open, active and methodically journeyed through them as the night progressed.
I am back again for the evening, but in about twenty minutes the same daily event will begin.
Yes. You had no time to reply. That's why you're posting in tons of other threads 
I chose my time, in my own way.
I generally do not read your posts. Lets us get one thing out into the open, shall we?
I rarely read your posts, and most especially never those directed at me, for obvious reasons. I do not like anything that you post and I have a gut feeling that, if I met you you, I would not like anything about you. I do not think I can gain from reading your posts and I follow my gut in this matter.
I did see, in a few of those who I do read who quoted you, that you are expecting something from me.
I can only say that, if you are such a smart person, you have already made up your mind. Nothing I can say will set or settle your mind for you.
If all that shows just how ignorant I truly am, then I am quite safe from your brand of intellect.
The funny thing is, I haven't made up my mind about you. I dislike a certain part of your behaviour, but I've seen some parts of you that make me think you could be a decent person. If I'm honest I would like to hear why you adopt such an aggressive posting style towards people you disagree with. If I understood that maybe I might be better placed to make up my mind about you.
And forget the callout if you want. I'm happy to speak to you here.
But just so that you know that, even though I have stated quite concisely how little respect I hold for some of your views, I do not automatically disregard most people, outright.
I was reading to my daughter tonight and she wanted to make another choice of reading material, aside from what we were already reading - she wanted to read from a huge artful book I have by a photographer named,
Anne Geddes. It is one of the books with babies in unbelievable circumstances as the subjects. When my daughter was a bit younger, we would look at Anne's work and I would read the captions to her in a kind of Fantasy or elfin voice that I drew from the art itself, then we would both make cooing baby sounds to match the photos, imagining what sounds such a comfortable baby would make, as pictured on each page of the artwork.
(I know,
... but she is MY daughter!)
Out of the fucking blue, my daughter wanted to show me her very favorite of all of Anne Geddes' work. She chose, as her very favorite, the image of a sleeping baby with a butterfly having landed upon its upper back as it dreamt soundly within the comfort of the pristine, full blossomed petals of a purple-heart, phalaenopsis orchid.
The caption was an intriguing notion:
“There are no seven wonders of the world in the eyes of a child. There are seven million.”
This all happened earlier this evening. Honestly, I seldom ignore such parallels. (... also, she has never seen a single page of this forum, either. This occurred merely as an interesting coincidence.)
I would not have shared this with you if I thought it had no meaning. I am still trying to work out the meaning, however.
