When I was younger, my friends and I agreed that any behaviour, no matter how inappropriate, could be excused so long as the perpetrator of said behaviour was sufficiently drunk. "Hey, fuck it, I was drunk," became the all-purpose "Get Out Of Jail Free" card we each carried wherever we went.
In your case, I'd suggest a bit of a twist to the phrase - "Hey, fuck it, I was on INTERNET" - and a little less concern about it all. Nobody really gives a shit anyway, and it's not as though Convict is going to show up on your doorstep one day to punch you out for being an asshole.
ulterior motive: i'm encouraging the "don't worry about it" approach at least in part because your IED-like outbursts can be hilariously entertaining, and I'd hate to see this place get dull because everyone starts behaving rationally all of a sudden.
Seriously, if you don't want to be a dick online, then... don't be a dick online.

Nobody thinks you're an asshole.
We all think you're just a putz.

Kind of reminds me of that Goofy cartoon where he's usually pleasant, loving Mr. Walker, but then whenever he starts driving a car, he turns into the murderous MR. WHEELER.

things like this are why we must abandon the reification of the episteme of cartesian rationality :cool:
edit: because nobody is ever entirely rational and always at some point ends up regretting things they said which at the time they considered to demonstrate absolute certainty and truth beyond any and all doubt

Or, more simply:
"Were you smart ten years back? No, you were a fucking idiot. So ten years from now, when you look back, ..."
(paraphrased from memory out of my currently terribly sleep-deprived brain)

's okay, StD. You're just passionate about your convictions, that's all. We learn from our mistakes, right?
It's easy to forgive your faux pas because you have cute dimples.
