I thought gleefully, “Oh dear God: PLEASE continue to let my market trades enter stock markets filled with people like this discussing inanely obvious crap amongst themselves! (So I can continue to out-trade them and take their money)”
I just turned away from the pointless banter, and went and bought my oil at that price. Now this week we find oil is over $40/bbl and I’ve made loads of money again.

I particularly enjoyed the over-the-top self aggrandizement. I must assume that it’s therapeutic in some manner. (Seriously, is there any successful trader on the planet who doesn’t show a great deal of humility as a result of battle scars? I’ve never met one that didn’t.)
But you hit the nail on the head with the last bit: “Good God. Spare me.” I won’t argue you with you there.
