> I wasn't insulted by 3 Beer Effect's comment about "snobby a*sholes" - I knew he was just joking. Being a young guy, I know you joke a little cruder than I do, but still wasn't upset by it at all.
>
> It's so hard (as sid has mentioned in another thread) to gauge what frame of mind & what intentions a person has when they post a message. I'm not so thin-skinned that every comment sets me off. A very good friend who is Ukrainian loves nothing more than collecting Ukrainian jokes. She laughs harder at them than anyone else.
>
> I've often said that if I'm going to be offended by someone's comment, they really need to direct it just at me & make sure it's obviously insulting. And then if it really is insulting, I consider that person to be beneath my attention & simply refuse to be insulted by such a fool.
>
> So far, I've yet to be insulted here. Any such insulting posts, I just ignore & don't post an answer.
