The wonderful thing about "big words" is that they are more concise, meaning that they can be more accurate than other choices. "Obdurate" means more than just stubborn. There is also a connotation that there is some denial or avoidance in what is considered in order to hold onto a challenged perspective. What other word would fit?
Does my vocabulary insult you? I would not have assumed that big words would be a problem. Avoid the questions. Rant about how you have been so reasonable if that helps you maintain your obdurance. Still you are ducking the issue, too bad... so much for real conversations.
Why? Why why why do you have to always be so freakin complicated?
If your intellect is that great that you can throw out big words all the time, kudos to you. Mine isn't. I personally don't want to have to go searching to understand wth you are saying. You could have very easily made your point by using the common english language. Or are you too good for that?
That was my point in leaving you that last message in a foreign language. Do you enjoy having to search wth I said? Ohhh wait! Maybe your intellect is so high that you actually understood everything I said there without looking it up. If so, once again kudos to you.
Your vocabulary doesn't insult me. Why should it? If you and I meet face to face and you used the word obdurate or one of your other big words you would leave me with a big wth is he talking about look on my face. I would never want to keep carrying a conversation with you. There would be no hatred towards you or anything along that line but personally I wouldn't want to be friends with a person that speaks like that.
If I spoke to you in a foreign language all the time would you actually want to continue conversations with me? And I am talking about if we met in person. Well I will let all this go. I am just being as ignorant I as am. Sorry my intellect doesn't match yours.
Then you always have to create more drama on the scene. I know you will say that you don't but believe me you do. What's wrong with you man? Once again you have to go and throw out smart aleck remarks...

You're talking trash to me and then you really want me to answer you? Come on man. Are you out of your freakin mind?
I was going to answer everything you brought up in that other post. Excuse me that my family got together for New Year's and I had to go. I kindly left you a message that I would reply to it but then you leave this kind of a post. That's why I am gonna (oops..is gonna beneath your standards in the engilsh vocabulary?) leave you hanging and not answer to that post.
You are exactly like EAGLE. You both are great players of the game. You both leave some very intellectual responses on forum. You both have some valid points to make. Both of you have some things to say that can be very helpful. Heck, there are even times you both can be quite funny. Problem is that you both can also be azzes.
If either one of you spoke like that to me or anyone I knew in person believe you me I would not talk to either one of you. So why should I here? Here's my point. I am not avoiding or ducking any questions. I just simply do not like people like you. Period! That's it! Nothing more to it!
The worst part of it all McFate is that you and I started off this way when our paths crossed. Then an issue arised and you went out of your way to be cool with me. I appreciated that and I believe I showed the same towards you. Am I right in saying that? Things were going great between us. I thought, wow cool, McFate and I can actually get along.
Now I see that is not possible because you are an obdurate azz.
