Read what I wrote. I said COMES ACROSS AS. It's not me taking anything too seriously or jumping to conclusions. Saying either is just a way of dismissing the validity of my observation. It's me saying how it came across to me. You, obviously, don't care to listen to other peoples observations, since you give them no credence. Just because you insult someone and then smile, doesn't mean you didn't just insult them. There is humor, and humor at someone else's expense. Yours comes across as being at others expense.
