It wasn't offense on my part as much as that I've been reading about logical fallacies lately and the unintentional well-poisoning jumped out at me, and for others' sakes I didn't think I should let it pass. Plus there's background context, which it sounds like you've been filled in on, about people assuming July is being mean because July is omg totes mean (another fallacy—the actual definition of begging the question, if you ever wondered; it's kinda like using a word in its own definition in that this kind of argument doesn't actually explain or prove anything).

Logical fallacies are fascinating, by the way.

Anyway, point is, apology accepted and we're cool. {= )
