Indeed, and thanks for explaining it better than I ever could. People are treating "being an asshole" like an exceptional state of being, when in reality we're all assholes to someone sometimes.

The reality is that snarky, flippant comments are easy, and it demands a level of self awareness to not engage in it. Recognizing your own ability to be an asshole is part of that.
