* Am I just being contrarian?

* Am I just being contrarian?
* Do I already have a relationship with this person, or am I being inappropriately familiar?
* Am I "ironically" doing exactly what this person just said not to do?
* Am I derailing another legitimate discussion in order to get on my own favourite hobby-horse or to one-up this person in my knowledge of social issues?
* Am I saying "Are you surprised?" when they're disappointed?
* Am I providing unsolicited advice?

@researchfairy Great checklist! This should show up every time you start composing a reply.

@researchfairy
* Would I say the same thing out loud if the person I am replying to would stand right in front of me?
