I'm intrigued by your P.S. Mind expanding on why?
- ambicapter 8y agoNot OP but I think that may be a way of saying, in effect, if one person is being more polite than the other, then they might feel like they are being "more polite than necessary". So his P.S. is saying "please match my politeness level", or, possibly, "You are being impolite, compared to me. Fix that" in an oblique manner.

- ambicapter 8y agoContinuing to play devil's advocate, I think implicit is the expectation that all parties know good manners when they see them, which could be yet another way of putting people down in that statement.
- barkingcat 8y agoThe people who are rude won't care.
