I believe it should concern you.  I believe it contributed to what  
happened here.  I believe you would have a much more pleasant time on  
internet forums (in general) if you took it on board (not that I have any  
evidence that you don't, however can you honestly say this is the first  
time this has happened to you?)

Side-note; it should not matter to you "who" is giving the advice, you  
should judge the advice on it's merits, or evaluate it yourself.

I understand, you're blowing off steam.  You're directing it in the wrong  
direction here however.  To the point being made; 1 person cannot define  
the "norm", you cannot redefine "asshole" all by yourself in any  
meaningful way - that was the point I was making, and the distinction  
which is important here.
