After all that, I'm just a little curious what a european grocery store is like
Some Jim Butcher (he writes a fantasy mystery series called the Dresden Files, I think that's the name of the series, anyway) unfunny for you.

Oy vey.

I will concede this to Butcher: I can see how one could take the use of an F-bomb directed at them somewhat personally. I too have a tendency to take negative responses to my statements rather personally.

But did he have to keep going on about it? Even if he was still angry, that's what stepping away from the computer to seethe for a bit is for (something I've also done when I feel overwhelmed during online interactions).

On the bright side, new Dresden Files book out. Yay?

	I will admit I do "get" thinking that "Fuck you" is meant in an insulting way. But whining about that and not paying any attention to the fact that people are frustrated for a reason is just "Hi there, tone argument." (Reply to this)(Parent)
