With all due respect, I feel I must suggest that it was not the nature of
your profession that offended quite so much as the manner in which you
alluded to it.
But the moment I let a

To whit: you did not so much let slip the information that you work in the
entertainment industry as much as you did trumpet the fact. Sadly the
unpleasant reputation that the film business has for being full of
self-promoting schmucks, which may or may not be deserved, was then invoked.
>his insults in thin vails of bitter wit (quite MOD indeed!)
I'm increasingly tired of whining along these lines. Bitter sarcasm is not
an intrinsic part of modernism. A low tolerance for folly is. Every time
someone gets slated they do that "oh how very mod of you" comment which only
serves to show how desperately in need of a backbone they are.
>What he doesn't realize is that he is just flaring,
Well I hope it's no more than 15 inches or I'll have the trouser committee
on his ass for sure.
