I really wouldn't mind, and wouldn't even try to explain anything to anyone else. Just realized this post was dedicated to me, which is an honor, so I had to take part in this discussion.

I am not a famous author, nor do I have autovoters supporting my work, so there's literally nothing at all to lose for me. It's not like my life is at stake or something.

To summarize, I'm not trying to explain myself. Just holding an interesting conversation with a talented author I look up to on Steem.

It's good you spoke up. Owning it. People can see you're not as bad as the failed humor might make it look.

It's not about you or even that joke though. It just makes me uncomfortable to think something so innocent as a four can now, somehow, get ugly.

I'm actually having trouble explaining the point. I think I could have done a better job.
