An Adult conversation
I don't see how I'm not being the adult here.
Hym "I don't think you want to have an adult conversation. I think you want to sit me down as though you are the principal of my high-school or my shrink and you want to walk me though the shit I said that you don't like but we would be doing that for YOU to feel better about it and you don't need to feel better about it as a prerequisite for ME getting what to which I HAVE A RIGHT. You don't need to feel good about it. I do not need to assuage your cognitive dissonance.

'Yes Hym. They are harassing you. Yes Hym. It resemble the delusions of reference commonly associated with schizophrenia and NO that is not your mind. It IS a problem that people are doing that to people. We are going to go investigate that and make sure we aren't misdiagnosing people with schizophrenia and causing mass murders because that NOT YOUR JOB. Yes Hym. Your dissertation did contribute to the current model of artificial intelligence. Here is your your royalty check. This is Dr. Shit-for-brains. He is going to test you for neurocystcerosis because if you were right and you were losing a lot of weight and experiencing prurtitus and you were right about having worms 7 years ago and the doctor to whom you went overlooked it, it could have progressed into neurocystcerosis. And we are going to check that white build-up on your gum above the tooth with a hole in it because your filling crumbled out years ago because we can't give you an anti-inflamatory for your brain-cysts if you have an infection.' THAT is what YOU being an adult looks like. That is what an adult conversation looks like for you. YOU being an adult does not look like 'BuT yOu SaId ThIs! BuT yOu SaId ThAt! BuT wHaT aBoUt ThE tHiNg YoU sAiD!?' That is you being a pedantic child while I die."
