Half a year ago or maybe a bit more I had the joy of being envenomated by a brown recluse spider. Entire forearm swelled, people kept asking what happened to it. My answer: "I brushed up against a neo-con." Good for a laugh, but I think it genuinely offended one co-worker. She's a very nice lady, and we have good talks about our hopes for our children. Very weird. Use the words "republican" or "democrat" and her hackles raise. Talk with her about personal values, though, she talks like a liberal.
Could be wrong, but I think there are times it is of benefit to speak respectfully and honestly with a person whose views differ from your own?
