It was a cheap shot & I did get the inpression VH was having a pout- but I couldn't quite grasp why.
However, I didn't see it as an insult to Dafluff's mum, but as an insult to Dafluff.
To be fair this is probably one of the "cleanest " forums on the net & if that's the worst it gets then it is pretty tame: in comparison to a (virtual) place where I was recently & some English woman was pouring out some vile racist & Islamic puke at me. Because my nic & profile pic are not gender specific- she assumed I was from Pakistan, living in the UK & freeloading on the welfare system, oh & living on curry. She didn't write it so politely at all. I did enjoy the "debate" with her knowing how far off the mark she was- (fair enough I do eat lots of curry). There is no cure for stupid, sadly.
