I can admit my feelings get hurt when someone gets mad at me for something I didn’t say.
Can you admit your failure in reading comprehension?
Can you at least point out where you think I said that strawberry “seeds” aren’t the actual fruit, so that I can know how I was unclear about it?
I didn’t mean literally mad. I mean people are telling me something that I’m wrong for something that I didn’t say, and that I went out of my way to make clear I wasn’t saying, and they’re doing it in a belittling way. So yes, my feelings are hurt.
But meanwhile I still didn’t say it, and I made clear I wasn’t saying it, and you’re still being belittling and telling me that’s what I said.
Maybe the problem isn’t that I’m wrong about what a fruit is, and the problem is that you (and whoever else) misread what I wrote. In which case, why are you still telling me I’m wrong about what a fruit is? And if that’s not what you’re doing, then what are you doing?

Nobody is mad at you. You’re the one mad at other people. It’s all in your own head.
Look here, pedantry is my business.
