Wow, I am impressed, you have read all 6668 responses and 202 original stories I have written.

I guess you missed the ones where I have praised or thanked people for what they have written.

Don't like what I write it is ok to say so, I read everyone's comments. Nobody makes you read it. I am not trying to be popular; I don't make a cent from Medium; I pay a membership and I my writing is free to everyone.

Oh, I don't think my stories are dismissive or mocking. That is mostly my responses to other people's posts. I have over 200 original stories I have written.
