Any criticism is "whining." Nothing valid about it; nothing factual about it; just "whining" in order to avoid criticism and having to justify ones "opinion." It's the bully's response to challenge.

I presented you with your argument from the other extreme, since you appear to deal in and understand only extremes.

Painful, huh?
