and I was just stating my feelings about what looked much like an attempt by a merchant to make good free things look bad. like, its dangerous to get free things, they have licenses (buy mine instead).

looks even more that way since she couldnt resist ridiculing the person who made the freebie, and i quote "I don't want to be responsible for giving this poor guy a coronary"

I don't think I "jumped her", I pointed out what I perceived as a flaw in her logic and a rather pointless insult of someone who is just being generous.

i sure didnt "pass" on the guitar
i'll take my chances with that dangerous license
