If you were crass, OP, then the critic of you is a crass-cutter. Throw THAT back in his face next time he disses you.

got called crass all because I do not tell my profression. Does that truly make one crass? Or you can tell him that you are in actuality a crassing-guard. You help little old ladies and small children to the other side of puns, put-downs and the heavily driven road to hell.

Is that considered a Haiku? Only if you are reading it in the land of the rising sun.

got called crass all because I do not tell my profression. Does that truly make one crass? well, I guess that all depends on how you put it (the context of the usage)... while the subject matter itself does not seem crass to me, who knows "how you put it!"... $.02

My profile is set the way it is for a reason. I have nothing to hide. But I do not want people to judge me upon my profession or location and such. I am me. Where I live or work does not make me the person I am on the inside.
