Jul 31, 2020 at 20:56 comment added Rubiksmoose @HarryWilson It's not imagined, there were 4+ flags on this post indicating that people found it rude. It's good to remember that just because you don't see the evidence does not mean it isn't or wasn't there. If you have a serious issue with the request, please feel free to bring it up on Meta because further discussion of the issue is not appropriate to have in the comments.
Jul 31, 2020 at 20:55 comment added Harry Wilson Why should it? Why should someone censor themselves just because some people think he's being rude -- not even truly offensive, just potentially offensive to some imagined third party? What's more, there's no any evidence large numbers of people thought his comment was rude.
Jul 31, 2020 at 20:42 comment added Rubiksmoose @HarryWilson Funny and rude are not mutually exclusive. Humor is also very tricky over the internet. If a significant number of people are interpreting something as rude, it doesn't matter if you intended it to be only humorous and it should be changed. That is what happened here.
Jul 31, 2020 at 20:40 comment added Harry Wilson The original is much better: it wasn't rude, just funny.
Jul 31, 2020 at 15:55 comment added Rubiksmoose Your last sentence was flippant to the point of being rude. So I subbed it for a more neutral phrasing. Feel free to find a better wording that suits you and is tone-appropriate but don't revert to the previous wording.
