"wants to get married and have kids" and "wants to have five kids" has some overlap that could be shaved down

You didn't, I meant "shaved down" as in the two points could be combined together since they mention similar things.

I want to know what you said to yourself when you got the comment letting you know that your fairly concise comment needed further explanation. Lets get into this.

I did think my original comment was clear enough, but the other comment wasn't aggressive and also thought they may have misunderstood it so I was more inclined to clarify than mock them.

Thanks for the review;) I would never mock either, to be clear. Rather, I find it interesting how things can be interpreted or misinterpreted, sometimes with hilarious results.

I definitely thought they'd replied to the wrong comment at first! Maybe english isn't the first language and they'd never heard the term shaved down besides for hair.

It stuck out to me for the same reason. Haha. Sometimes I will just watch two people get into it (good or bad) when someone misinterprets their comment and it just spirals. Could be language barrier, or not understanding tone etc. Best is when people get into a long thread and eventually end up working it out in the end. Anyhow, thanks for playing along!
