...you have got to be shitting me.

I'm breaking my neck trying to just break onto the level y'all naturally reside in - just trying to be a tad more normal - and you're giving me shit because you jimmies got rustled over getting asked a fucking question about your extensive education?

"More neutral language".

Lemme break it down for you.

"You lay out quite a lot of experience". Premise. Expression of admiration for knowledge.

"Did you read about all of this?". Question.

"I seem to remember your official education being something in design and/or construction and/or engineering". Reason for questioning.

"More neutral language" my ass. Turn this more neutral - you'll end up with binary. Have to tiptoe around your landmine already just to get a fucking answer out of you - and that still ain't good enough.

Fuck this shit. Can't catch a break worth a dime for being myself.
