Find the guys that were quoted in it, Re-Open CP Chat for Game Days, take up a collection to provide them with drinks get them logged into CP chat or a live-stream and just wind 'em up and let 'em go!
Hell...a big reason I watch a lot of these games alone isnt just because of convenience.
I mean...we have to take a sense of humour about this at some point. We're passionate, every little mistake or call that doesnt go your way is amplified by x1000 but you're on the internet! Who cares? You're not hurting anyone, you're just venting.
And then to have that thrown back at you later? Its an opportunity to either laugh at yourself (important skill!) or if you must, learn to tone it down.
Or not. It is still supposed to be fun.

Yeah. Honestly with some of these rather poor arguments against it (cause they think it's somehow rude or a personal slight to repost something they knowingly said) I feel almost tempted to make it even more cheeky and ruthless (I won't though.. for now). Yet to hear an argument that isn't just an overblown, personal overreaction.
As you said, its such an essential skill to be able to be a little self depricating from time to time and not take yourself too seriously.
I mean ####.. it's only life. We were made with emotions and it makes us say dumb things sometimes. How about we embrace that and laugh at it, rather than perpetually live with our defenses up towards anything that can even slightly taken the wrong way.
