In acknowledging what others may or may not think you pay them homage in the form of time, which could be used on being productive. Love yourself and be happy with that. Judge not, for in doing so you are creating an issue where you may not otherwise find one.
Sometimes though there's the matter of if what they say, think or do goes unchallenged it then thinks itself as right because there is no opposition, and then goes free to do and influence whoever it wants.
In the case of this thread though that's not what's happening, I simply made a reply in jest. And then other people replied such as Kaga a bit confused as to what I interpreted and then your question about accepting and preferences.

I just love that he made this huge thing out of me calling him a nerd.You know, the thing spammers have been calling each other the last 3 months.
Actually my response to you was very brief.
It was my response to others that went on for a bit.
