    Edit: my intial wording seen as negative so removed, removed random skit as well

    Why “hard to get into the university of alabama” reply?

        Why does it seem like you take everything as a negative instead of a positive?

        Again, your comment just reminded me of the Bill Hicks joke, no one is calling you anything…

        I hope that helps and let us try to stay hopeful and positive when looking at text with no tone!

            Again, default seems to be negative…

            No need to look further into meaning behind everything or to maie it a problem.

            I will try to explain thinking process, somewhat:

            You mentioned school.

            Difficult schools to get into.

            Was reminded of people that question education and learning in general.

            Reminded of people that question reading.

            Comedy, Bill Hicks.

            Hope this helps you, not everything goes to the negative!

              You said I remind you of an anti-intellectual joke, which is pretty thinly veiled way to call me stupid and I don’t appreciate that.

                Seems it was a micro or just a verbal aggression or something like that?

                Microaggression is a term used for commonplace verbal, behavioral or environmental slights, whether intentional or unintentional

                I am at fault for wording that can and has been taken in the negative.

                I should have thought of a more productive and positive response.

                I thank you for taking the time to explain the problem in my ways ad wording, while directly telling me.

                I hope to continue to grow and learn and to be mindful of wording.
