[MD] now it comes

[Platt]
Your entire bloviated, smoke-filled, what-my-daughter-thinks excuse boils down
to, "I made a mistake." ...

[Arlo]
Which was the FIRST THING I WROTE IN RESPONSE. You are right, I said, I
should've use single quotes and not double quotes. How can it "boil down to"
that when it is the FIRST THING I SAID.

Idiot.

[Platt]
I leave it to the jury to judge your credibility. 

[Arlo]
Please do. I'm interested if any one else on the list was befuddled by the
context into not understanding it was a parody. Or in any of the 'other times'
you mentioned (but did not cite) when you think I was trying to pin a verbatim
quote on you. (See, I used single-quotes for you there, your little hardwired
brain should've understood my meaning now, right?)
