Well, bugger me sideways, with a pitchfork!

I never expected this response from my #newsteemparadigm initiative.

Shocked, I tell ya's!
(and fucking mightily pissed off, I might add).

Here's the conversation - to date, concerning this ..(not including the response - that's lower down in the post)

Here is the response I've just received from @sunlit....!

So basically you, of your own choosing, was going to take what was made in upvotes, invest it then return part of the profits to those who follow you out of the kindness of your heart with no strings attached. You "somehow" managed to forget about me and now you would like me to work for something like thirty cents a half hour to get my share of something I never asked you for in the first place.
lol.
Really dude?
I'd been more apt to help you out if you'd just asked then tried to bribe me with something that was "supposedly" already mine. I've done more for a lot less but your approach was way off and lacking in sincerity for the intended purpose you put forth in your endeavor. In other words apologize for insulting my intelligence (what's left of it for still being on this site) and we may be able to move past this and reconsider your request.

And here is my reply.

Am I missing something, here?

This is what I have been doing. Precisely this.!

You "somehow" managed to forget about me

Yes, i forgot about you.

now you would like me to work for something like thirty cents a half hour to get my share of something I never asked you for in the first place.

It's called helping out each other.

to get my share of something I never asked you for in the first place.

Yet you bring up me forgetting you?

I'd been more apt to help you out if you'd just asked then tried to bribe me with something that was "supposedly" already mine.

..and yet I've already asked people to help with this, and you've never offered...?
It wasn't a bribe, it was a way to help.
Believe it or not- I can quite easily do it myself, as I have been doing by myself so far with 4 payouts (or it is 3? bad memory)
It was never 'yours'.
As you well know, I pick 10 people and distribute out as i see fit.
(feeling entitled, much?)

It was totally sincere - how you choose to be offended by me offering you something, is up to you.
There was no 'approach' - it was what it was.

You insult your own intelligence by framing my offer as you do. I never apologize for doing something I think is a nice gesture.

I'll never be offering this offer again to you, so don't you worry about it - I wouldn't want to offend you.
I'll send you tokens some anyway. (one steem for each brain cell).
A parting gift, if you will.

and we may be able to move past this and reconsider your request.

I'll save you the mental turmoil...
Consider any 'reconsidering' forever, and utterly, out of the question.

You idiot.lol
