If you ask an sensible question, why do people feel the need to stick their oar in, without actually answering the question but with their own stupid remarks????? If you dont know, dont answer! Idiots!
i think that you are probably over-reacting girly, though I have to say that the particular aber who "answered" your question seems to get peoples backs up from time to time(my own included) I don't think that it is meant, I do believe that they are trying to be helpful, they just have a funny (strange) manner. Actually reminds me of my sons Primary teacher - I want to strangle her on a regular basis, but she means well! ;0)
I think you should go back and read the point you were trying to get answered in this question as reading here it looks like you have included your own remarks.
