"Ahh proved right :)" Was not directed at you, it was directed at nobody really, but if anyone it would have been Monkey Man. And it wasn't a sarcastic or flammatory comment, it was simply saying, "ah I'm not the only one who thought he was saying X instead of Y."
Gah I'm useless at explaining things :D
> Me: Careful, that could be construed as X.
> Monkey Man: You know what I meant.
> You: Isn't X what he meant?
> Me: Nope, see Monkey Man, I'm right- sounds like X not Y.

It was a genuine question, you pillock, not sarcasm. At the time it sounded to me like:
Monkey Man: X
You: Careful, that could be construed as X.

Believe it or not, not every forum is filled with pedanticity; just the ones with people who love the sound of their voice/keystrokes. :)
