I have never been called indiscreet by any human being who knows me. Quite the opposite. Which leads me full circle to my original reply to you: I have found that satire is not for everyone at FR.

Perhaps you should scour the place for a sense of irony?

Joan Rivers was asked once if she found humor in everything.

Her answer was interesting. She said almost everything is funny, except the death of a child.

Whereas a man like Larry David tends to clumsily think there are no limits to what a person should be able to ridicule.

Discretion trumps irony just about always.
