Fun game. Trying to say "you are wrong" in the most polite way possible. I still cannot get anything above 70.

Thanks for your interesting comment! If you would, please allow me to follow your replies, if only to see your outragous commentary and enjoy the reactions of fellow readers. :-)

How to come across as a dickless pushover for dummies.

Seriously though I think it's bad to encourage people to pepper their comments with such trite. I would rather read a brief, sincere message than a longwinded weak one.
