And btw, these words which you attributed to me are not my words:

Crohn's is a form of IBS

My joke was in reply to them. Be more careful next time. Don't mess up like that.

For your information I know exactly what I replied to and I know exactly the order the posts came in because I checked backwards before I responded.

Someone else said something like "Crohn's is a form of IBS" and you said in reply something to the effect that "Stern certainly has the BS part."

I responded to the "Crohn's is a form of IBS" as it appeared QUOTED in your post--which is something that happens hundreds of times on this thread by other posters all day long. I committed no misdeed in doing so.

You went one further and scolded me not to "mess up like that" again. You were the one who messed up. Making fun of an illness to someone who tells you they suffer from it is beyond "messing up." It is insensitive and in poor taste.

After I posted my response outlining the difference between Crohn's and IBS you then asked me if I got your "joke." I graciously said that as a person with IBS I didn't find it funny but that was "JUST ME."

Free clue: The "JUST ME" part was to let you off the hook for being insensitive to me. But you missed it and decided to attack (scold) me when you really should have just let it go.
