Sorry.

Sometimes when I type on IRC I forget that the text is just that. Text.
It has no inflection and if the person to whom it is directed does not know me that well They might infer a meaning that I did not mean to imply. Tonight I called Toggy an asshole in the channel. I was joking. I did not mean it. I was trying to keep up with the “clever banter” that was going on.
In my mind’s eye I saw Toggy laugh (or at least smile) at what I was saying. Apparently he was not smiling nor laughing.
For that I am sorry
