I'd chuckle, too, quite frankly. That still doesn't make it legal.

We don't use a technical foul because we're offended. (I might never use them otherwise.) We use them because to keep behavior in check, whether that behavior bugs us or not.
And you honestly believe that that comment is behavior that needs to be kept in check??

Like someone else already said - OOO.
