Thank you for saying what I've been thinking for a while.
It does seem facetious, yes. That you somehow find this offensive is bewildering to me and definitely says more about you than it does about Jeph, imo.
FYI, at least from my perspective, it didn't read as flippant at all. I read it as bitter and entitled, though I'll take you at your word that at least the second half of that was not your intent.
