Earnest. You really have acted like a massive bell. If you thought you were being clever, you are wrong. You have simply revealed your malice. If you thought you were being funny, you are wrong. You have revealed your lack of empathy. Your attempts to justify your grotesque insensitivity are as cringeworthy as a dog humping a wheelie-bin. The only appropriate action would be a sincere apology to @lauralemons and to head back under the rock from whence you crawled. Until such time as you have a more developed sense of empathy and decorum. Good day.
