Whoosh.

(You say "A", I say (trying to be sarcastic, like the condescending
twad I am) "oh of course, A" and then you come back with "wrong, not
A".
Seriously?
I admit that sarcasm is hard to read in email, but the consequences
are evidently sometimes humorous.)

Anyway, this beaten horse is lucky to even be glue at this point.

My statement was actually a continuation of my sarcasm ... and
certainly not a personal attack.

I do see that there can be difficulty in interpreting sarcasm in
email, so I guess I should have been clearer.
