    You typed this reply without seeing I actually mentioned that? I am willing to take criticism about my writing style, but don’t reply snarkily without actually reading.

    Of course, fuck them cars, and children should not go to school so early.

      The cause of those things is that school starts when it’s still dark, and has nothing to do with the number displayed on the clock.

      Your sentence doesn’t state that, and given the context of the rest of your comment I think it’s pretty reasonable to assume that’s not what you meant.

        Is this Reddit? With those snarky replies that misconstrue comments, it sure feels like it.

        I just wrote “kids should not go to school so early.” Did I need to be more precise? Write five paragraphs to explain my ideas? I tried to keep it as short and simple as possible. I was hoping it would be enough to avoid impertinent and rude replies, looks like I was wrong.

        Your tone is unwelcome. It’s possible that I wasn’t clear or that we misunderstood each other, but you didn’t need to write your initial response that way, really.
