Ah silky,

You must have a huge target painted on you with a little picture of a
flame in the middle :)

Not that I want to take sides here but the OP didn't seem to take
offense to the "offending" comment so there's no need to pounce on
someone in that regard.  I highly recommend making sure you understand
the mood of the comment (eg light hearted) and then decided to pounce
with flame throwers a blazing.

Then we can all be smiles and sunshine :)  <cue hippy song>
