I assumed sentience, sure. I mean you can understand my error, right? It
walks, it talks, it vomits forth blind ideology. It _seemed_ to be
thinking on some very low level. But as with the knee jerk following of
dogma, I guess it was all just purely instinctive trolling :-D

This thread is an absolutely classic example of how libbies operate.

Y'all form up and circle the wagons-- all the while spouting the party 
line orthodoxy. When facts or opinions contrary it-- or even just ideas 
which you just don't like are expressed-- you gang-up on the offender. A 
unified clacking chorus of raucous name-calling and derision ensues.

Within the next few posts, the bunch of you will likely degenerate to 
shouting things like: racist, elitist, homophobe, one percenter, fat 
cat, global warming denier, haters gonna hate, or some other of your 
silly ad hominum slogans and shibboleths...

At this point, I think y'all have beaten this horse beyond mortality-- 
so basta and bye...

Being liberals we're just as likely to disagree with each other and 
accept that fact as normal to the human condition.  Liberals do not have 
"party line orthodoxy" - that nonsense belongs to Tea Baggers.

Let's break that down for you, like a fraction.

1. It wasn't a non-sequitur.  It was a carefully studied and adroitly 
put rhetorical insult.

2. Your reply proved that you don't think.  So it had a great degree of 
intended and effective prophetic humour.

 Or perhaps his comment on the insult was truly deep and funny? On the
order of the insult itself but mirroring its meaning back at the
insulter.
 Seeing it that way is very charitable, I agree, but it is always
possible he put a lot of effort into it and it could be read as a
quite amusing response. 
 Or do I have a weird sense of humour? [That's a given but is it *so*
