Don't you think you're trying a bit too hard, these days? I mean, it's all too obvious that you're trying to offend others.
And just incase anyone didn't already know: what he did there is called an illicit quantifier shift, where the subject states that Entity A bears relation B to some C, therefore C bears relation B to all A. Here's a more in depth explanation.
