Hm. You were seemingly abandoning the thread until I pestered you, so you didn’t seem all that motivated to add context. You hadn’t really fulfilled any goal of having detail until I pressed for it as well. Your memory of how this exchange went is very different from mine.
I’m sure being the first asshole does get results sometimes. My proposal is that you could have also achieved those results not being a firey asshole.
Whatever floats your boat, if you want to believe I was the asshole first go ahead. It's another funny incongruence that you'll give such leeway to the guy who stole your bike/bought a stolen bike, but apparently think someone disrespecting you back after you disrespect them is somehow the original asshole.
And to me the whole thing was a cohesive argument at the point I disengaged. Everything after that was just a mixture of reading comprehension tutorial for yourself, rehashing the original points in a more verbose, hand holding way, an etiquette lesson on spamming people for replies, and addressing a small assortment of new non-sequiturs.

And you seem to be misunderstanding, my perspective is the result here is nil. You have been entirely intractable about both the general negative points of choosing to believe in fairy tale outcomes of real world events as an adult. And the inappropriateness of constantly inserting yourself into people's notifications for your own entertainment/ego-padding, to which I'm not even the first person in this thread to point that pattern of behavior put to you. So I guess technically I could have got the same result by not trying, yes, but that info is not nearly so useful to me as you think it should be.

lol sorry, where did I disrespect you? By saying you don’t need to be the asshole when you said sometimes you have to be the asshole? Or something else?

The “negative outcomes” you’ve listed (not taking proper action after the theft, not being more vigilant about if/when it happens in the future, etc) are things that aren’t happening here, so now I’m confused again about what negative points you’re referring to. Whatever clarity you think you’ve brought to the argument is muddied again.
