And you sound like a drama queen. The severity was not conveyed. According to HN users in this thread, it couldn't be for whatever reasons. We didn't know the extent of the trouble. Sure, he was rude, and I don't like it when people are rude, but some people in this thread are making it sound like he pulled the fucking trigger. Give it a rest.

Why don't you "man up" and acknowledge, the comment was not only very distasteful, but extremely vitriolic and damaging for someone who was asking for help.

He was asking for help, is this the type of rude comment you make when someone ask for it.

Severity wasn't conveyed, what does everything have to be explicitly spelled out for you in order to understand.

You're too emotional to ration with. I hope you stop displacing anger in every which way.
