That's a bit of a flippant reply but not yet crossing the line into rudeness, and it forces the other person to explain herself at that point. | |

I know it leaves something to be desired, but it's all we have right now. Please note that a reference on IPS can also be personal experience, and feel free to flag us to remove the notice once you've added some back-up to your answer. | |

| Jun 6, 2018 at 10:36 | comment | added | John Hamilton | @OldPadawan I think the southern part of Europe (the warm parts) are all alike (more or less) on this matter. They will pursue the matter relentlessly and won't think they're being rude. | |
| Jun 6, 2018 at 7:38 | comment | added | OldPadawan | I agree with the answer when it comes to anglo-saxon culture, but Spain is completely different, and this won't work. | |
| Jun 6, 2018 at 6:57 | comment | added | kscherrer | Hey, thanks for the answer! Can you please explain exactly why you think that this is a good idea? Why do you say to take this course of action? What’s the thought process behind this answer? As this currently stands, this is essentially a “Try this!” answer. We require that answers provide some sort of explanation for why they are suggesting this solution. Also, do you have personal experience or references to back up your answer? | |
