" you might be my boss but you are a total wanker"
That's disrespect and insulting at the same time. Direspect includes insulting or rude behaviour. One would think if you called someone a wanker often enough you are really showing them disrespect. Disrespect being the total opposite of respect.
But really it is quite easy to get the gyst of what F&D meant without getting so upset, I am sure he wasn't insulting your intelligence, which you yourself did to him in your response.
Eskimo joe, sorry pal, but what are you jabbering on about?
Quote from me which you used in an attempt to make a point
“ you might be my boss but you are a total wanker”
This clearly was not aimed at anyone in particular, it was intended to be a an innocuous comment. How the Fuck did you conflate my attempted humorous list of the use of the work ‘fuck’ with an attack on F&D???????
You then make some feeble attempt to merge disrespect and insult into a synonym. In my opinion, this clearly demonstrates to me that your grasp of English literature and language is weak.
Quote “That's disrespect and insulting at the same time. Direspect includes insulting or rude behaviour. One would think if you called someone a wanker often enough you are really showing them disrespect. Disrespect being the total opposite of respect.”
At this point I believe that you had lost the plot if indeed you ever understood the intention of our exchange of subjective opinions.
And finally, you offer the following very weak and confused advice to me:
Quote: “But really it is quite easy to get the gyst of what F&D meant without getting so upset, I am sure he wasn't insulting your intelligence, which you yourself did to him in your response”
More confused logic from you. Explain?
Finally, it is regrettable that this exchange of opinions with you has downwardly spiralled into the this irritating impasse. In the future, I will engage in discussion with you with a cautious sense of due dread.
