Take a tip from grandpappy MDK. Lay off the debates for a while. I get into them because I care about whatever issue -- but then all people saw of me for a long time was 'look at this dude, all he does is rant about OT shit for hours.' That's not all I did, but how was anybody supposed to know better? People see the image we project, whether we mean to project it or not. And interderpbates tend to involve a lot of image-projection. So I laid back for a while and chilled out, and now I'm seen as less of a total cunt. I could write you a ten-page thesis on all the reasons I wasn't actually a cunt, but that's kind of the self-defeating. Just chill for a while. Chilling is good for you, and for some stupid reason people like you better afterwards.

Those people have short memories, then.

Though I do see the humor in you summing up your behavior as 'ranting'. That's some creative recollecting.
