Yes, I was already born. But you are telling a fib about hearing Jumping Jack Flash on a jukebox in 1965. So, do your beliefs preclude you from liking any Rolling Stones songs?
Not fibbing. The sixties was a blurr. Seventies too. I got the year right I know because I was on the east coast at that time. I'm trying to remember now the song I heard in that time and place. I could have sworn it was Jumping Jack Flash. I was hopping back and forth across this country so often I can't always remember clearly what I heard and where I had heard it.

Nevertheless Jumpling Jack Flash is probably my all time favorite. The song that is! I'm not so impressed with The Rolling Stones.

No. I don't think that your memory is your problem. I think it's your pride. And not just in this matter. Furthermore, how can Jumping Jack Flash be your favourite Rolling Stones track when they also had the song Wild Horses? 😉

Why would you think pride is at issue? I spoke honestly when I said I was obviously mistaken about the year, and I told you why too.

I guess being critical about individuals motives feeds your ego.

Pride is your problem here, generally speaking, is what I meant. Furthermore, I'd say you probably have a more obvious problem with your ego in terms of the way you behave here than I do with mine. You have been hypercritical of my motives here for years - stridently so - about which I have no complaints, but it does make your last sentence (above) kind of odd and revealing.

You're just being silly now.

Oh? And what does being critical about individuals do for your ego?

Probably the same as it does for yours.

Huh? So, you accept that you yourself are just feeding your ego?

Then you admit that that's what you're doing here? Feeding you ego?
