my guy "similar definitions though not identical" is the definition of synonym. it appears you are the one who does not know what words mean. also why are you being defensive and trying to act strong with "only as far as you know". dude chill you are not tough, you are having a completely pointless, nonsense conversation on the internet.

Wow you are pitiful, my dude. Apparently I need to define these words for you. Yes, shortsighted can mean not able to see far. However, there is a second definition meaning lack of foresight. Nearsighted has only the one definition. Thus, the two terms are not interchangeable. Anger is the base emotion of displeasure, usually stemming of antagonism. Rage is the same emotion scaled exponentially into a violent state. Anger can exist without violence while rage cannot. Again, the two terms are not interchangeable.
And I'm not attempting to appear tough. I was merely refuting your statement of "sole instance", which for some reason happened after I told you I use the expletive several times daily.
Pointless? I don't know about you but I'm having a ball proving how wrong you are. Also because I'm the kind of asshole who needs to have the last word.
The length of my responses are simply to illustrate a given point. And I've already proven how I don't feel the conversation is pointless. The point is I'm having fun holding up a mirror to your stupidity as you call the conversation pointless yet continue to engage.
And yes, I'm not trying to seem tough. I only call myself an asshole because I know I'm an asshole for things like needing the last word.
