Pipette, I think I am in the position now that I have to ask for excuse for my fellow German parfumistas!
I would not say that you have stepped into a nest of angry wasps - you have just been exploring the German mindset - which is considerably different from Anglosaxon social rules. It seems in my country certain values in communication like honesty, straightforwardness, always say what you think are esteemed much higher than, i.e., politeness, respect, friendliness, humour which to me seem to have a higher value in the Angolsaxon world.
Due to this, it is possible that some tension can easily build up in discussions, however, only in rare cases the results are like this:

All about the mindset huh? Now I understand why no one appreciates my humour. I thought I was going to get some snacks for being in the corner.
Good job Apicius, you are really trying to be fair with this issue.
