I see your point, of course, but in reply I could also write "Exactly."
That kind of response can go both ways when it comes to this ban on goldfish
bowls.
A.A. As W.C. Fields said, not the way I play it. I don't see how my response
can go both ways. When you say "exactly", you mean that the goldfish could
feel nothing, so it's fine for us to do what we want with it. That's what we
assume about each other too.
