And that is the problem with this form of communication

Very easily misinterpreted. I have no idea what Shoddy meant and I don't wish to analyse tbh. But I do know one thing for sure there is only a tiny % of meaning ascertained from words alone. The way someone says something and their body language as far far more of an indication of what someone actually means. Joking especially.
