The more hyperbole you use doesn't make it so. I'm not even certain there was yelling? But I don't recall; were capitals used? Anyway, I won't. Come crying to you I mean. Like the man said, if you talk to someone in any way, or use a word that they haven't asked to be clarified, you don't know if you're going to offend them. Life isn't about second guessing if you write or speak to someone if they will take offence surely? Isn't it so that you say your piece and people can take it or leave it. It's up to them. Yes, It's up to them and if they're children, maybe their Mum. Did the OP take offence, and if they did, it's their fault. You only take what you can handle. But your opinion is not lesser than any other.
