I don't understand. Metus flatly admitted error, end of story.

For clarity, I found what Metus said to be very funny. I commented because I wanted to underscore the humour, not because I wanted to be critical.

FWIW, I also read it as an insult. And though I do believe you that that wasn't your intent, I don't see how else to read it even now.

Well, it wasn't intended as a kind comment either, but it clearly fell a lot flatter than I thought it would.
