          Where are you from that you think that was aggressive?

          Has humor completely died or do you need an excess of emojis to convey tone?

              The tone was humorous. You took it as condescending.

                Communication is a two way street. If what you meant to convey as humorous did not land as such, but instead as condescending, maybe try reflecting why and how you can improve your communication in the future.
