It's not. I've noticed this misunderstanding before and it's very frustrating. Not every word with a negative connotation is an insult.


It is. The comment provides it's own context to show it. It is not internally consistent any other way. See my other response. I likewise am frustrated by things, like lobbing such casual insults and then playing dumb/innocent when called on it.

"what's wrong with weird?" Nothing is, and they know that's a misdirected disingenuous question.


This is ascribing an incredibly negative attitude to me and frankly it is unnecessary. I don't deserve to be attacked just because I do not understand what you meant, especially because I took the time to ask you for clarification.

Clearly I feel like what you have to say could have merit and I would like to know what that merit is.
