Your joke sucked, dude. If you're gonna go over the top, GO OVER THE TOP. Your "joke" sounded like 95% of the posts here. It's not my fault I misunderstood you, although I apologize for that. If you're going to mock ridiculous garbage like that, you have to MOCK it, not just imitate it dryly. You've got to figure out a way to MAKE your words into that cymbal and rim-shot. I'm not a frigging IDIOT for misunderstanding you, so don't condescend like I am.
I didn't over-react. It was a plain reaction. People act as if directness is substitute for rudeness. It's not. I just think mincing words is a waste of time.
