Ok, here I'll ask you to apologize. Woah. Horrible.

I am sorry for asking you to clarify. I don't understand why I seem to have offended you. All I did was ask a question. You are the one who said it's horrible. Sometimes I don't understand what you are getting at and I ask questions. I just figured you would explain further. I seem to have offended you which was not my intention.

If I go to my neighbour and ask her "so did you neglect your baby today?" she will be offended that I assume so, and that I assume so enough to ask.

In my learning, before means before, not during.

i don't know why, but i think i read your sentence as before shabbat ENDS. Now that you have corrected my misunderstanding, i understand why you were so pissed.

i have a degree in english literature and sometimes i make mistakes in english. or at least read things that are not there. there was such a thing on imamother recently. i thought the woman was pissed because her husband referred to her by first name as did a few other people and it was actually her son. i totally misread it. once again, my apologies, i really misunderstood. you probably think i am completely idiotic and i deserve it.

If she didn't know you were frum, she wouldn't have been shocked at (mistakenly) reading your husband was getting the car on shabbes. Tons of Jews post such and more all the time!

I get why it was offensive, though.
