Keep on raging, I guess

I don't think my tone was 'raging'. Very strange takeaway - but also interesting...

"Keep raging" is a good example of what's known as a "thought terminating cliche". You might not want to terminate your thoughts so easily.

That, or just a way to save face: when you can't argue the point, argue the tone... If that's what you were going for - do you feel like it worked?
