Here is meaningless:

 Konqueror errored out with this message "bla bla".
 What does it mean?

What I gave was considerably more. 

  OS update
  Konqueror errors out "bla bla".  Any one know what it means.

Lets see, OS update, the guy's running kde... we have specific
library error.

  Maybe not so hard for someone who knows enough to make a connection
  there.

Feigning surprise that your `meaningless' phrase was taken as some
kind of (light) attack is also pretty phony.

One does not liken something that was enough to point out a specific
problem as `meaningless' without somekind of ill intent or at least a
certain  high handedness of language.

So drop the surprise charade and just let this fade away.  

If you need more information just say so.  No gimmick required.

Once again, thanks for your input.
