    Yes. And you can be very rude while using so-called civil language. I think you know where to find examples.

    It is quite an art form. I practice it daily.

    Blunt is asked a question and answering it without regard to its acceptance. Rude is someone else asked a question and you answer it without regard to its acceptance. This post was edited by O-uknow at June 22, 2017 6:37 AM MDT
