The figure of speech - rest my case
was actually directed to somebody else
where you was tagged as an example

So my case that I "rested" was directed at @vapesmarter not you
you was simply the example in that case or point I was making in that post

but by trying to use this as a response, when it was not actually responding to you
you have in fact proven my point further by not being able comprehend the point being made

the "case" being rested was directed to @vapesmarter - not you

you really should get an early night to catch up on some sleep

I seem to remember things like the mmr vaccine having an effective rate against mumps in the high 80's and flu jabs being much lower, so 90+% is pretty bloody good.
it's an incredible achievement all round really.
 

OK now let's put this into FULL context a bit...
(rather than a snapshot of the last part of the post I made)

I was initially responding to @vapesmarter as I said...

As I was finishing off the reply to him - ping your post came through at 7:12
So I then decided to tag or quote you as an example as I said
when I posted the reply at 7:15, 3 minutes later...

You was simply brought in as an example like I said to prove my point
(which is what the figure of speech "I rest my case" means)

If I was responding directly to you, I almost certainly would have posted a response to you and you alone, and likely produced a more lengthy reply. Though I have replied to a couple of people at once, the vast majority of my replies are 1-1
and even on this thread I think I have responded on a 1-1 basis...
Here is an example of me doing this one post to @vapesmarter & another to @Crewella 2 mins later...

(Crewella's post ping came through just prior to me posting - like this post where you was used as an example
I could have incorporated my response to Crewella in the previous post but chose to post them 1-1 as I usually do)
You may find some exceptions to this - but in general I respond directly to people on a 1-1 basis
You was merely being used as an example, the "rest my case/point proven" was not actually meant for you
but as an example in my response to Vapesmarter

You simply was tagged/quoted as an example to prove my point I was making to @vapesmarter as I have tried to explain

You can interpret it differently if you wish, your own perception, but you simply was brought in as an example like I said in a post I directed at somebody else

Hope you had a good nights sleep
