OT OT OT OT RE: "If you are curious"

I am curious because I'm wondering why you would say something like that to anyone. Seems like it's about you, not the other person whom you're directing your anger towards.

RE: ",you must not have ever seen him before."

I've seen him either in a webcast or a photo (don't recall which), and he certainly has leanings towards the more attractive side (intelligent, etc.)

RE: "Also, you are free to feel anyway you want about my observations. It makes no difference to me."

It's disappointing to hear that a person's feelings do not matter to you. SI is a forum, made up of people who have feelings, who spend some of their time here to learn & exchange ideas.

RE: "my comment about the little chimp was not a racial slur."

So, it was a coincidence that you choose a phrase which is commonly associated with racism? How does his "mind" relate to "looking like an ape." I do not understand the connection between the word "look" (to describe a physical characteristic) and his "mind" (internal thought), in the below:

RE: "he looks like a little monkey!" and

your explanation to the above as: RE: "Kumar's sapien little mind does not even allow him to "ape" being an analyst."

Accountability (for saying something rude) is probably one of the most important attributes I admire. I'm not saying you meant it in a racist way, but I am saying that it was an extremely inappropriate comment.
