When people ask me how I can work seven days a week alone milking my cows , I respond at the end of the day it's so much easier to wash the crap off me that is dumped on by those I work with than in an office. And it's cute ( not creepy) when one of them comes up behind and gives a friendly lick on the back of my head with their tongue 😛

Usually if someone accidentally says something like that while the person is in the room they'll say "no offence", meaning they didn't mean to say that about them. The usual response is "none taken", meaning it didn't bother them. He says "none taken" making the point that she just did to him the very thing she's accusing the photo of doing, and she didn't even have the decency to say "no offence".
