Ok. Have fun playing dumb, but I'm not going to keep responding to it

Haha, that looks funny in the eyes of anyone who understands the subject.

But okay. I believe that regardless of how many questions I pose in order to find out if your case makes any semblance of sense, I won't find out whether it does.

I'll just assume you are clueless without noticing it yourself. That's okay.
