How dare you. I was <em>joking</em>, obviously. Clearly, men don't understand irony. Let me explain: I said something that SOUNDED bad, but in my heart I didn't mean it, so you can't yell at me. THOSE ARE THE RULES. Maybe you'd know if you spent your time reading instead of playing football and whining, or whatever you boys do. I'm so offended that you would accuse me of being a sexist. I don't hate men! I'm even dating one! I asked him, and he said you're an oversensitive, shrill harpy, and men like you are the reason you're oppressed. Not that you're even oppressed anymore, that was a long time ago, get over it!! You can't use stuff from like a million years ago as an excuse anymore. He also says I'm not a sexist at all, okay? *sighs wearily* I try and I try to keep you boys happy, and this is what I get. I'm not even going to try anymore. And it's YOUR FAULT. What? How dare you.

The very idea of fighting with XML and RSS and everything has scared me off.
