I apologize if I missed the humor or lack the history on this site to understand the context of the comment.

I guess I am so defensive due to the fact that I felt so isolated in my situation and was truly looking for empathy and understanding.

I will do my rest to read more posts on this site so that I can better understand everyone's personalities.

I am really not a stick in the mud and do have a sense of humor (at least I think so). But even as a "Junior Member" I am direct and tend to take things at face value. Just give me a hint if you are being symbolic, illustrative or otherwise "deep".
