Wow....good job about finding out what the word means exactly. I did not insuly any of your family memebers and if you took it this way than im sorry. I think you know exactly what i meant even if it was written badly. Or didnt you? I agree completely with 1217. 1217 cleared my mind about it a little bit wihthout being so agressive. I respect you for that  . I will not state facts about me because i dont see why does everbody need to know. And as far as i know there is nothing said about writing perfectly on this site.

DTop explained why he wanted to know what country you were from (to see what your first language is, which would explain some of the apparent misunderstandings between you all) and what your age is (again, to help explain some misunderstandings and excuse what, to our minds, might come across as a certain irrationality or naivety in your position). From your posts, it appeared to me at first that you were an American, considering your claim to know so many people who had gone into the service, and the fact that United States military commercials probably don't get much play overseas.
The misunderstandings I mentioned above include the insult to DTop's son, which, although unintentional, came across as very offensive, and a simple "I'm from Sweden/English isn't my first language/what have you, and I'm sorry that my point came out wrong" would have been more than sufficient satisfaction for DTop I'm sure.
