You are absolutely right...it is insulting, but it is an "insulting response" to their initial insult. It is my subtle revenge, and most of the time it goes right over their head. I've had people just smile and then it hits them a few minutes later that when I said I had a lucky draw I meant that I was lucky to play them.

Is it wrong to give someone a put down, even jokingly, after they have given you a put down (by suggesting I only won because I was lucky)? By some people's standards it is wrong...we are supposed to turn the other cheek. Unfortunately, I am not that good a person. The other cheek I prefer to turn is theirs.

When I get stabbed, I stab back. I know others who do not, and I admire them greatly. But my way works very well for me...just ask my third wife.
