i didn't know you were joking. i didn't see that. guess we all have different ways of joking. in this type of environment without having the non-verbal stuff to go by, well, i think it's good to try to get across that you're joking. you know...use a smiley face or say LOL or something like that. ya know? plus you're new to us here. we don't know you. people who are regulars here, well, we learn to understand each other's humor. and even then it sometimes get misinterpreted. now just me...i wouldn't be calling a complete stranger an a-hole. that's just me though....
