Vice versa. That's why I like reading your views on matters. If we all agreed, on one hand it might be simpler, but somehow quite banal.

That's why I brought up the Emily/Charley situation as others have made different analogies.

Emily, in my mind, wasn't intending her comments to be disrespectful, but then inadvertently caused offence by the way they were conveyed to another HM.

Some people use the N word in a certain way, as in alright niga Meaning my friend. I'm not going to edit out my words. Others get offended.

When I have friends round I greet them with "Alright you C U next Tuesday". My friends know me and laugh at it. It's a term of endearment. Meaning I am relaxed with you and I can say that. I'm less wary of doing that with other people I don't know too well.

Some things seem ok for one person to say but not another. Depending on your background and intention. Not sure background is the right word in this instance. It's all subjective.

I'm going off on a different tangent.
