Slightly high blood pressure, right leg slightly shorter than left due to old gunshot injury and beginning to bald.
‘What I got in reply from you was a snarky retort about crime being a bigger problem in America.’
Not sure what ‘snarky’ is but my post merely agreed with your implication that perspective is everything when comparing our two countries. Perhaps my prose style borders on the subtle.
‘You just couldn’t resist taking a shot at America.’
An occupational hazard on a board where most freepers (your good self excepted) delight in anti-British sentiment. :)
