It's not so much about them getting to me. However, if I annoy them with my presence (which is why I can figure they are being 'mean'), I hardly see the point in me being here. I am far from the type of person who gets pleasure out of irritating others.
My tastes are a whole different story.. I don't believe all that many people could easily relate to them. So you are not alone in that.
Anyhow, thank you. It's nice to have someone actually provide me with some decent insight, you certainly have my respect.
