What I read:

Interesting conclusion to draw from what I said. I guess you're free to treat the internet like old media if you like, but I think that wastes a lot of potential in a medium where you can blend in visual metaphor as much as you like. After all, it's an informal setting where we have the pleasure to worry more about having fun than trying to come across as intellectuals.

While we're at it, you should change your avatar to the words:

"Look, I made a painting, I'm a unique and creative individual"

as I feel language better represents your creativity than a small, badly made self portrait that barely makes any sense.
