Yup!!

You got it. I'm much more at ease with subtle irony.

Why yes, you do seem to have a knack for it.

(was that subtle enough for you?)

That wasn't subtle at all! That was blatant sycophanchy!!

Hardly. It was irony: derisive.

I took it as a compliment. You really don't know how to deliver an insult.


I'd have preferred it if you hadn't learned your place so quickly.

I'd have preferred it if you had a clue. But reality seldom meets
expectations.

You are absolutely correct. Your "expectations" led you to believe that you
had insulted me. The reality is that you paid me a compliment.

I like you. You're nice, but a little bit dim.


Regards


Donal
