       Your quote above proves that quality means nothing to you, Goo.

       I proved that you give no consideration to the part about quality of life   
   by   
   posting your quotes Goob. You have confirmed that it means nothing to you, but   
   I   
   proved it to begin with by quoting you specifically saying so.
