I know exactly what you meant and know you're not being a jerk about this, but somehow you're coming across as a kind of jerky.

This is a communication style thing, I think.

Sorry, this probably sounds kind of jerky too. But really, I know *exactly* how you meant what you said and in the strictest sense there was really nothing wrong with it. (I feel others will disagree, that's why I'm saying so much about it.)
