I looked at my post again and it does come across as annoyed and pissy, so I can see why you might have had a bad reaction. It doesn't read the way I felt (feel), which was very despondent and distressed and uncertain, but not angry . I should maybe write "draft" posts and re-read them in 20 minutes before hitting "go".

Ah, I see. That could sting, all right.
