Yes, I am so insecure. You are right, I am going to kill myself just now.

Old sayings like this are usually stupid.

Until now, I was professional and managed to ignore this thread 
completely. But you just had to pull the Windows card. You were trying 
to convince people that you were right by telling them "either you agree 
with me or you are just another Windows user who doesn't want to pay". 
That is not acceptable and breaks the rules of any discussion between 
grown-ups.
Again: Comparisons like that just mean you are out of arguments and are 
still trying to convince people. Tell me why you think what we do is bad 
without mentioning Windows or Ubuntu or any comparison to anything and 
we can talk professionally.

Okay okay okay, after this e-mail I will definitely kill myself, sorry 
for keeping you waiting.

Don't bother - all I will do is be an ass about it every time.
