I guess my frustration is only about our inability to discern the threads that demand serious response from the ones that do not. If he were selling a car I could care less, and maybe such light-hearted humor based on grammatical error could be laughed upon or overlooked. And I respect the root cause behind your humor but I wonder if the original poster is perceptive enough to figure it out.

Again, as I say this I have nothing against such humors; actually I have nothing against any kind of humor. My only point is, maybe it was a wrong thread and the quipping reply was from a person who is far too classy to post something trivial. And the reason I spoke about sexism, and racism and prejudice is because there have been replies like those, unlike yours, where we fervidly expressed our ideas in the most combative fashion to get our point across, or for the sake of humor for that reason. I cannot say of you, but I could speak about myself for which I am not proud about. However, during those times such scathing words were perhaps obligatory.

Now the part about me being up in the arms about criticism and humor, you have known whatever little history I have here based on which I'd let you decide.

Cheer up! It is Friday and we both seem to have lots of time in our hands.
