I believe he is referring to everyone in general. Not any a specific person. :)

And I agree GIA99, we need to be careful when making hasty posts, because we could end up regretting it or hurting others.

I read my posts through at least ten to twenty times, write no less than seven drafts, cross-reference my content with at least five other sources to verify its validity, and consult an English major graduate before I click submit.

Lol, I'm not. I thought what Jelly said combined with what you said(sounding like you thought he was serious) combined with Jelly's response to that made something that I thought was funny. xD That's all. :)

Haha, Jelly. I saw the opportunity and was going to make a post like that, but I decided to keep away from this topic..

Your's turned out better than mind would have, though. :p

May I ask why you felt the need to include that? Just out of curiosity. (Because we are very hesitant with the delete button here.)
