Bc you read entirely into that wrong 100%. You for some reason I can't fathom take offense at a very common phrase that I've used since I was about 8 and l learned it from Felix Unger on the odd couple. It's my contention that you really have no reason to have thought that was overly un-nice.

I was offended by you taking offense and making my own stand not related to other people. I re-used the phrase on purpose to make a point it it not a derogatory phrase it's merely the expected phrase for the exact circumstance.

What I *implied* was actually nothing at all. What I literally said was that we are ALL guilty of being moronic but only specifically applying that to myself (and my brothers who on occasion as myself deserved the moniker). Example : brother thought it would be funny to touch my neck with a donut just pulled out of hot oil. That is "being a dumbass" and he deserved to be called out on it. Having 7 younger brothers and about to turn 50; there were countless examples when each of my brothers and myself have earned the title.

You I don't know well enough and it would be moronic on MY part to attempt such a misjudgment (to call you dumb or even imply it). I only sense there was some misunderstanding and also that for as I said some reason I can't fathom thought that phrase was meant to be more disparaging than literal.

I did say that maybe you goofed and sent us down a rabbit hole implying that one key test was performed that possibly wasn't and should be verified before going on. Dumb? No not at all. Goof? Oversight ? Sure. I make mine daily nobody's perfect.
