To be fair to mfm, telling him “it’s a good thing you don’t have kids” is kind of a shitty thing to say. Apparently it was a joke (I guess?) but it didn’t come off that way.
Yes, it was a shitty thing to say.
It still didn’t need the ‘fuck you’ response.
It did need that response. Had anyone other than Handman or another friendly user said it, I’d have responded even more harshly.
Maybe a response something like ‘What the fuck? That’s a shitty thing to say - where’s that come from?’ would have been a more apt response? and may have also got you some info on why/what caused Handman to say it?
