WTF does your experience in HS have to do with the smug, arrogant, condescending tone of your, "Good boy, Fido," comments now? I'm trying very hard to establish whatever connection you are trying to make and the penny isn't dropping.

Are you saying that it's OK for you to be smug, arrogant, and condescending now because your life sucked back then?

Since as I indicated, I belonged to a church youth group with an out gay VP, and part of a statewide youth council with a black VP, do I get a pat on the head and a, "Good boy, Fido," too?

I think I have an idea of what you may be trying to say. But the words and expressions you are using don't get you there, so I'm not sure.
