I guess I come from a place where such behavior doesn't send grown men into a hissy fit.

Reread my post...I was perplexed..but instead of thinking what a rude person this guy is, I wondered how good is he? I am quite comfortable in my masculinity so I wasn't insulted. My work may have been insulted, but I wasn't. When I saw how good he really was, I realised that although he may be harsh, he knows of what he speaks.Busting balls is a side bar...a personality trait of his( of which I too relish I love a good ball-busting).

Ever run across a person who just wants to push your buttons..just to see what you'll do? Now if you get all twisted up and you can't take it, ok. No fun there because now if he says something to that type it's not fun anymore.
That's being rude. I agree rude is not good.

I know we are for the most part very nice guys here...don't beat our wives..kick the dog... but some of us need to lighten up.
