It doesn't matter if you don't understand why I consider it an insult, merely that you know I do. Ivor

What insult has been levelled at you?

You are being unspeakably rude and insulting merely by calling me what I am not and what I have repeatedly asked you not to. My only problem is constantly having to defend myself against unwarranted insults. It doesn't matter that you don't understand why it is an insult. If you had the slightest speck of human decency in you, you would stop and apologise, but I'm not holding my breath. Ivor |
