I'm not going to lie to him and say it's any other way, even if it should be.

Being a dick about something and later coming back and saying "wow I've been a dick about this, sorry guys, my bad" already strikes me as a great deal more mature than going "hey this guy's been a dick a few times let's remind everyone of it again and again and again." You can't very well "earn your respect"
*(a pretty bullshit concept in itself) if there's always someone guaranteed to quote your old stupid posts at you no matter what you say.
