You're being extremely hostile for no real reason. I'm allowed to be amused that two concepts that are similar to me are distinct in your head. You have zero reason to be offended right now, but you've decided to take up arms and be an ass.

I'd suggest you wait a day until your panties are no longer in a bunch and reread the actual words and see if you still feel butthurt. Then I'd suggest you spend some time thinking through why something completely innocuous and generally positive made you so upset. It will probably make you a better person and is cheaper than therapy.

Sometimes I wonder if people are too scared of misinformation and quick to "correct" any perceived misunderstandings without stopping to think perhaps those comments were not made in ignorance deliberate, or otherwise.

Its hard to have a discussion.
