Actually I don't. I hadn't realised that when a person believes that somebody has made an especially clever, witty, insightful or fun remark, that's actually a put-down of all the other people whose remarks weren't quite as clever, witty, insightful or fun. But now that I've had this pointed out to me, why, I see insults everywhere!
