It's just that Ullr read this thread today and pointed it out, which made me notice it, which made me curious as to the reason. yeah, bullshit. No really. I have developmental disorder that causes me to do that. I'm not going to go into the details of which one, and never will in public, because it's none of anybody's business, but for the sake of this specific point, it's functionally very similar to Asperger's (though it's not Asperger's), in that I have a very strong tendency to disregard tonal inflections, and other emotional content out of language, and tend to totally ignore it as irrelevant. Of course you're right that, "not noticing" is an overstatement. I had noticed it, in the sense that I'd observed it. It's just that I didn't attach any functional relevance to it, and so didn't factor it as being noteworthy. Especially not seeing that I often swear myself, just to provide emphasis, and when it provides a more pleasing cadence to the sentence, and so I wrote it off as 'filler' of that sort. Either way, it still doesn't alter my opinion of you, because my opinion of you is not based on what your opinion about me is.
