Strong & Alive, your point is well taken. Still . . .

"Honey, I think X."
"But I think Y."
"Honey, you have completely missed the point. You totally ignored A, B and C. Look here, and here and here. X is the only possible answer."
[Whether or not X is objectively right, Honey now feels that you think she's an idiot.]
I can certainly understand that difference. On the other hand, I wasn't the one who told someone he "completely missed the point" or accused someone else of deliberately misunderstanding. Those things were said to me, not by me. I still don't quite get why two people disagreed about something (rather mildly, in point of fact) and only one has the bad attitude, but we could pick nits all night.
I'm on call until 6:0 a.m. my time, so that's not an idle threat. I think instead I'll just stop hijacking DQ's sex blog now.
