Well... that's why I put "I'd try not to go berserk on them" because then there might be bloodshed. :'D It takes a while (sort of) to get my temper going, but hoo. If I'm mad at you, you'd better get pretty far away where I can't reach you. Unless you like physical and/or psychological trauma maybe?
And I don't think your response is bitchy... o_O;;
The respect genes weren't so much inherited as they were instilled into me - "If you disrespect your family members, then you're going to regret it because we will make your life hell."

I don't think my response is that bitchy... just more assertive than yours. xD

Same here. You should've seen me the day my mom announced that she wanted to put the animals to sleep because she didn't want them around anymore... hooooooooo boy.

XD True. Although for some reason, I've got the respect for authority figures OTHER THAN my parents...
