(8,052 posts)I understand your use of the word "ammo" wasn't intended to be disrespectful, but thought it might rub people the wrong way, given how raw emotions are right now. A few days after 9-11, on which day people I know died, a friend used the expression "coming in under the radar" and saw me wince. He didn't mean anything by it, it's just an expression people use, but coming at that particular moment it just didn't sit right.
Same with "the gods." I figured you meant, basically, there but for fortune, but again, I always wince a little when anyone comes close to suggesting that God, the Godess, or anything celestial has anything to do with something this.
Anyway, sorry if I jumped all over you. Like I say, it wasn't intended to be snark, though it probably sounded like it.
Best wishes.
