  That was probably not very politically correct, but I laughed when reading that. I think a possible alternative is they’re not a native/regular speaker?

  > you're either denser than lead WTF is up with your personal attack there? That's uncalled for. :(

    oh, but your pedo joke is perfectly fine then?

      But you're literally saying "bedside manner" in a specific situation. If you didn't mean that, then shouldn't you have picked different wording? And note, unlike your behaviour, I didn't call you names. I just pointed out your wording was weird. That's not a personal attack.

        I guess if you don't know what a phrase means, there's always the internet to look it up before jumping to conclusions. https://duckduckgo.com/?va=c&t=ha&q=bedside+manner&ia=web https://duckduckgo.com/?va=c&t=ha&q=bedside+manner&ia=web

        Interesting. Good point about that phrase for doctors. :)

        Again with the unwarranted personal attacks. :(

        Here's a tip: if you encounter this behavior in real life or online again you could simply not respond. It cancels the whole negative chain of communication.

        Hi Justin, the phrase "bedside manner" is very common, and was taken out of its original context for all kinds of uses because of medical drama TV shows. It basically means, "general human politeness for people you're caring for that are currently not in a confident position." This can apply to a medical professional that takes care of their patients, or a teacher watching over their students, or the person at Best Buy's Geek Squad explaining why your computer doesn't work. Rather than continuing to rile up the other user for no really good reason, perhaps you can accept that your lack of knowledge regarding common English idioms frustrated that other user, and forgive them for being mean to you. In the future, rather than make pedo jokes, maybe you'll give the phrase a look on Google to see if its been used before, because it likely has. Thank you for your time.
