well done, thanks for insulting another poster!

Do you fail to see the irony in calling Incognito crass?

White Rabbit's post was insulting, uncalled for, and is being deleted. That's a CRASS way to welcome a new poster.

I must say that I don't really mind insults, though personally I don't really consider this an insult. Rather, I would say that your criticism is simply lacking any thoughtfulness.

crass

1 a: gross 6a; especially : having or indicating such grossness of mind as precludes delicacy and discrimination b: being beneath one's dignity <crass concerns of daily life> c—used as a pejorative intensifier <crass flattery><crass propaganda>2: guided by or indicative of base or materialistic values
crass - Definition from the Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary

I am not sure why affording the same liberties to everyone is gross or indicates grossness of mind, and I fail to see how it is indicative of materialistic values.

Secondly, you offer nothing of value to back up your simplistic argument. You simply make a statement with no supportive evidence. I suppose that simply because you say it is so we are expected to accept it as fact.

Seeing as how I welcome an argument and different viewpoints, would you be so kind as to elucidate on why you think I failed, why it was crass, and why it didn't make much sense? Thanks in advance.
