I'm sorry. That just doesn't wash. I read: "I knew somebody would ...
complain" as "don't nitpick, no matter how hard I try, some fool always
reads me wrong". It is a cop out. I think you chose the words that seemed
natural to you as one already convinced of the error of the poster's ways.
Try treating the people you support as your equal, not speaking down to
them. Learn to see their own value judgements as being just as important to
them as yours are to you, even if they are at odds with yours. Then you may
learn to chose words that do not speak judgementally against them without
having to try three times.
