true, I posted an email on another forum last week, I was truly joking and put an LOL on the end.
Some big mouth son of a gun, wrote back telling me how rude I was and that just because I put an LOL on the end does not hide the fact I was insulting.
the real truth was that I was indeed trying to make a joke. The joke was not even directed to her it was to one of the guys and they did not say anything about it.
