I didn't understand the ferocity of this reaction either nor could I imagine
what impure thoughts he was imputing to your rather innocent brain. It was
as if you had made some sort of snide, lasciviously abject remark for
which you should justifiably be banned from decent society for the rest of
your life. This inspired me to re-read what you had written in order to
savor the utter degradation of your comment which had either passed over
or under the sea level of my moral sensitivities.

But whatever it was or was imagined to be, if anything, is beyond
me.
