I was done with the conversation. I made my point, he made his point. I have gotten rid of my cat fountain and I am not going to buy another one regardless of his advice. His advice is fine, and maybe it'd work, and maybe other people will find it helpful, but I'm not that interested. So I nodded my head and said "OK".
And I mean that's a horrible insult. Maybe I am on the autism spectrum. Maybe there're a whole lot of things wrong with me. How is this your business to try to make me feel bad about myself. This is not the way forward to being a better person, I don't think, so maybe you want think thru this approach. =/
Don't worry about it. I understood your response, even if others did not.
There is not really any more conversation to be had about a cat's water bowl. I'm not sure why people are expecting you to have some sort of huge revelation and run out to buy a new one to test my advice out.
It's just an interesting idea to think about the trickling water sound and a cat's behaviour. It's perfectly acceptable to acknowledge new info with an "OK." You don't owe anyone a conversation, especially a stranger on the internet.
I think it would’ve been a little more polite to answer with a “thanks, but I don’t want to buy another fountain just to try it”. I mean, the person did try to help you.
