On the internet, EVERYTHING is a personal attack.
Besides, if the person really is a moron then they wouldn't understand there is a difference between the 2 statements anyway. So a true moron will definitely take both statements as a personal insult.

It's a personal attack to the statement.

English Clarification please.
This seems an absurd question. Why English? Tell me a language where the second statement is not an insult or a deliberate confrontation.

In the Norwegian Parliament there has been lots of hair-splitting cases whether the President of the Parliament should reprimand a speaker for using unacceptable language or not. Characterizing another member of the Parliament is almost never accepted, while characterizing a statement, which everyone knows who made, as utter nonsense is much more likely to be accepted.
Maybe "moronic" is so insulting that it wouldn't be accepted at all in our Parliament. But "nonsense" is certainly acceptable. Besides, there are a few recognized modifiers: You could e.g. say that claiming that schoolbags made of clear plastic improves security is, with all due respect, utter nonsense. The "with all due respect" really is the opposite ... You use it to indicate that you really have no respect, but since you explicitly indicate that you are aware that you are bordering on the respectless but will not cross the line, you may actually do that: Cross the line to the respectless. It is like "I usually have respect for the speaker before me, but this time... well..."

First one is accusing the OP of being an actual moron.
The second is implying that the OP is acting like a moron via their statement.
Both hurt the OP's feelings.

The discussion is actually about hypocrisy.
The point was that the super portrays himself as someone who's truly nicey-nice, and condemns everyone who displayed even the mildest of aggression in an argument. However, he personally attacked someone and then went on a spree to justify it, and basically reduced it to an English/grammar question.

Yes - the proper non-personal form would be: "That statement is moronic."

With those two statements, there may not be much difference.
But I prefer to say "that statement is incorrect" rather than "you are wrong".

"Your statement is oxymoronic" is better, because it adds an ox doing the moronic statement.
throughout my life, my two greatest assets have been mental stability and being, like, really smart.

Doesn't matter.
But if you decide to go either one way or to go the other, make sure that you use the same ... idiom ... so the debatee can ascertain your identity.

Hi All,
I have optimized one store procedure. Original is taking 35 seconds to take data and new SP is taking more than 1 min.
So, I tried to make the replica of same SP with the same code, even that is taking more than 1 min.
Summary is, new replica of same SP is taking also more than 1 min.
Please suggests, if any one faced this issue. This is very urgent issue.
Thanks,
|

Start by reading the text at the top of the page and you will see in bright red letters that this isn't the place for technical queries. So if you want to make people happy, post this in the right place. Happy people give better help than annoyed ones do...
Post it here:http://www.codeproject.com/Questions/ask.aspx[^] but think first: Remember that we can't see your screen, access your HDD, or read your mind - we only get what you tell us to work from. So write your question based on that!
Explain exactly what you have tried, and where you are stuck. The more accurate you are the better the response.
Oh, and don't stress the urgency - every question is urgent to the person who needs an answer! All that your stressing the urgency does is to make us think you have left it too late, and want us to do it for you. This annoys some people, and can slow a response.

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

|

Yes, I did these all things....please suggest...

Please explain the exact procedure you used to turn a stored procedure off and back on again.
As you may know, there are many ways to do this, and some are more effective than others...

As OriginalGriff suggested in his message[^].
Post the question in either
Database Discussion Boards[^]
Ask a Question[^]
I wouldn't post in both though, just pick one. By asking the question in one of these forums you will get a more suggestions on what to try. but please remember to give as much information as possible
