Whose being hypersensitive? I'll make it more obvious next time that I'm
joking about being offended. No one on the list will actually know if i
drank 17 shots of tequila last night...but the idea of being forced to
do so to sooth my bruise ego over an insulted in a mailinglist, was
funny to me.
Mike V. had a good reason for doing what he did, and you could be a
little forgiving of the fact that he didn't do it in quite the way you
liked.
I'm not saying is reason wasn't valid...but his actions are short
sighted. I did give advice on how to handle it better in the future. I'm
trying to be helpful...though I think I'll go back to trying to be funny
since I clearly need more practice at that.
