I love mini rule books (like the soft covers 40K had before) and really might want this...

I feel if multiple people are picking up the same vibe from your posts, you may want to consider your posting style rather than complaining about how people are interpreting your posts.
It may be they are being uncharitable, but at least a moment of introspection could be good.

Cultural differences can be a thing too, you know.

Crushed my cleaning, feels good. Checked on my book (Monster Overhaul) that was shipped again as the first was lost.

1. It will arrive Mon/Tue!
2. Thanks to Tariff Nonsense, its DOUBLED IN PRICE WITH IMPORT FEES!

Yes. But introspection doesn't mean "admit you're wrong." It just means "take a step back and look at what's going on."

It may be that the answer is that there's a cultural disconnect.

But it could also be that the speaker isn't thinking about how they're presenting their point of view and that people's reaction to it may be a reflection of their approach.

In ancient times posters were shrouded in smoke, and mystery.

Neurological differences, worldview differences, etc.

Or your perception of a core element of the discussion is so different you're effectively having two different discussions.

I feel like this is the root of at least 50% of issues here and maybe in life generally.

There have been a number of times I've found myself in an argument with my wife and we eventually stop and go, "wait a second, what exactly do you think we're arguing about?"

Being old enough to see my generation cast as the out of touch bad guys who just don't understand the world today is a new development and I do not like it.
