The question didn't even bother me that much. It was the disavowal of the implications of it afterward. You can't honestly believe that asking the question:
"Premium Tequila, Diamond Jigsaw makes me...wonder if Karl's drinking again?"
has no inferences? You tried to brush it off as "What? I'm just asking a simple question?" But it's not even the same as asking something like "I wonder if Karl drank milk for breakfast this morning?" or even "I wonder what guitar Karl played on Diamond Jigsaw?"

What is it that you think I was inferring? Yes, I had asked if Karl has as of late been drinking alcoholic beverages. I just don't understand what you think that I was inferring when I asked.
Because the problem is, I wasn't inferring anything. I hadn't came to any conclusions. Before I do that, I like to ask questions, collect data, not jump to conclusions. Karl is on record as saying that a majority of his lyrics (though not all!) are snapshots if you will of things happening around him. So I asked. The problem arose when you started digging around, thinking that I
had to have been up to something deceitful.
If you are thinking that I was trying to start some rumor that Karl was drinking, I can't help you with that. I just wanted to know if the lyric was autobiographical. I've already explained myself through and through. And you'd be wrong to think I'm trying to implicate Karl on anything, for your information. I'm not however going to own up to anything that I didn't do. If I had to guess, you're probably mad that I asked the question at all, which I think that I handled the subject matter very gently without judgment, implication or painting Karl in a bad light. And if you are, that's fine, just stop playing the idea that I had some ulterior motive because it's insulting and untrue.
Anymore of this, please see me in private. We can continue to squabble out here but others are already complaining and I'm not going to stop defending myself because tbh what you're trying to hang on me makes me look bad and I don't appreciate it.
