oh, and by the way, there's an important object lesson here...

it's fine to put someone in your spam folder -- i do it myself --
but you should then remember that you are _not_ hearing the
whole conversation, and therefore probably should refrain from
commenting on any bits and pieces of text from the person who
you are ignoring, because you're likely to miss something vital,
and end up making yourself look silly.

and what makes this doubly ironic is that -- when that other
person who you are ignoring corrects you -- you won't hear
that correction.  but everybody else will, so you won't know
that the other person made you look silly, but everyone else
will know, and then -- down the line -- when everyone else
knows that the person had made you look silly, you will make
yourself look even sillier when you say you are ignoring them.
