So I personally take claims like that really seriously no matter which side they arise from - but now I try to check and see if maybe there's another perspective where such behavior could be seen as fair - such as hurt of the offense instead of simply whether the same or similar words were said in the interaction because IMO there's more than one scale to measure fairness on.</blockquote>
