It ran its course when you said allergies are a choice. You’re literally telling me that you choose to be allergic, and that I choose to not be allergic. What the fuck do I say to that? So, I tried to highlight how alien and impossible to understand you are to me.

So I chose not to be allergic? Interesting! Why did you choose to be allergic? Are you stupid? Is it a fetish?
Do you choose to die when you get shot?
Given that this has moved from discussing the topic to personal attacks, I’d say this conversation has run its course.
Sorry, too far?
