    What the fuck?

    I’m saying that your situation appears to be just like mine.

    What crawled up your ass and died this evening?

      I think people are misunderstanding your comment. There’s a saying “look in the mirror” which is used negatively when someone isn’t being self-aware. People are most likely taking your comment as a play of this idiom and it sounds like you are yelling at someone to be self reflective. It’s miscommunication

        I’ve used that phrase many times before, and this is the first time I’ve ever gotten such a bizarre reaction.

          Honestly, I thought you were using it rudely as well. Like,“Look in the mirror, ya dipshit” Your explanation cleared it up, and then going back and rereading it, I see what you meant, but don’t get too bent about the person taking you the wrong way. I probably would have done the same at first.
