Ish -- this is a test. You may grade it yourself.

Did The Polite One's post this evening imply that I was drunk?

Define "assumed out the ass"

Is it against thread rules to make assumptions?

Where is the line between mere assuming and a lot of assuming?

Is assuming, to any degree, evidence of being drunk?

In any case, did I not preface my assumptions with an admission that making assumptions is kind of silly? It's not like I sneakily implied that Joan was this or that -- I made it very clear that I was guessing.

Did Joan make a "guess" that I might have been drunk last night or did her comment leave any doubt in your mind?

Respect? I disagreed with a couple of things the woman said. Rather than defend her views, she slithered away in a fog of obfuscation and batted away questions with remarks like "It was only a hypothetical example." Well, it was her example -- I asked her to provide another but she let it drop.

Did you think "Joannie Baloney" was disrespectful? I thought "baloney" showed an admirable degree of gentlemanly restraint.

Oh, well. Think there's any chance she might go to Coug's party with me :-)
