Okay, we'd all get on much nicer if we all used the following phrases to express or decode our true feelings:
“Dear esteemed colleague” = You flaming goose.
“Perhaps I misunderstood” = You write gibberish. It’s so incoherent you must be an idiot.
“If you had read my original post…” = You moron, you can’t even read.
“… I think you would understand my point.” = Sheesh, you can’t even follow an argument.
“I respect your opinion.” = You might be retarded but I’m still a nice guy. I'll only patronize you a little bit.
“Actually, I have professional experience in this field.” = By the way, I’m important…
“I actually studied this.” = And I’m clever.
“I know because I repeatedly visit many countries.” = And I’m rich. Nyah nyah na nyah nyah…
Love you all. (= This crowd looks dangerous.)
