They're not that either.

Because both are an expression of apathy, ignoring or minimizing the hurt of someone else. If you were doing the banging on purpose, I'd have to believe you don't care about or don't believe it's truly harmful for you to do that to Arthur.

The only difference is that you were pointedly told not to do it and why before you did it again. Based purely on the facts, I have less reason to believe you than you have to believe me.

Again, I'm trying to point out similarities and differences. I'm not trying to accuse you. I believe you that you got carried away and didn't realize.
