Oh shoot, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make it seem like I was piling on or making fun of you.
I didn't understand that you were specifically trying to be hyperbolic vs your hyperbole being part of you venting about the absurdity of homeopathy. But the fact that corsicanguppy did a shorthand version of [email protected], I was trying to explain a joke in the most bland terms possible.
My callback to "hogwash" was literally just to somewhat tag you or the next commenter in for them to then do essentially as you just did, except for comedic purposes—such as explaining what a sarcastic explanation is.
Either way, it seems that I've insulted you, and I apologize for miscommunicating my intent. Your original comment was very concise and explanatory. Had I successfully conveyed the dry humor I was attempting and had your reply been a comedic attempt at over-explaining, it would have been the greatest organic McGillicuddy and Green ever. Instead, I came off as an asshole and accidentally diminished your comment. Sorry about that...
