Trevor didn't dispute the anatomical association. He merely classified the misuse of the possessive "your" in place of the contraction "you're" as an insult. :-)

How can the truth be an insult?

Hey now, that's ARSEhole to you!

To be fair, the letter was FROM Anonymous A==hole, not TO. The TO addressee information was quite polite. And it contained IBM i stickers..
free! And, it was an international letter! How could anyone be grumpy about that.

Having been sent an anonymous email last year telling me "your an asshole"
(sic), it did not take long to uncover the culprit. All it took was to sort out who was calling me names on this forum and who was attempting to insult me with a misspelling. I have to say, it was a fabulous laugh.
Anonymity in our small community is not easy. It was obvious they needed some fun in their life, so I snail mailed stickers. What fun they COULD have had. I forgot they were old and grizzled beyond fun repair and lacking a sense of humor. And I love the "my boss" twist - this is now one of my favorite stories!
