60. In this case it's one and the same
Do you think this is a civil way to speak to someone?

I drove too. . .you don't like the generalization, tough

Where I come from, that would be considered a smart aleck, disrespectful way to speak to anyone.


People have this idiotic notion that if they have some experience at one thing or another, it gives them the right to lump everything they know about the subject(even though their knowledge is minimal) into one category and express sarcastic criticism.

Some examples really reared their ugly heads under this administration.
Remember freedom fries?
Turns out the french were correct. They're not all asshoiles after all, like some right wingers tried to tell us they ALL were.

Please show me the difference between not being civil, and being offensive. I really am having a hard time seeing this difference you report.
