57. True, I make it a point to shamelessly brag about my modesty every chance I get.

Just like never being wrong, it is but one out of my vast inventory of virtues. You may find it fascinating, but, being so modest, I would rather not focus on endless discussions of my precious self. You don't mind, do you?

So enough about me, who do YOU think is responsible for proof of evidence, someone who pulls data out of their hat insisting it is accurate, or someone who looks into that hat and finds nothing of the sort in it? If, on closer examination long overdue, the proverbial hat turns out to be data aggregator and not data provider, who just made a false claim?

Any guesses? That's right, as much as I regret to concede the fact, it's all about you, not me. In this light, it would be a wise decision indeed to not respond any further.
