You know, starting a reply to someone with the single word (sentence?) 'Lie' is not terribly friendly and may not lead to the constructive discussion we all come here to enjoy.

It's not just you either; I've seen comments with 'False.' strewn around this site and it sounds (to me) equally as cold.

Just a friendly note. You're neither a liar nor is your comment false.

To me, simply saying "False." with a link is not any colder than saying "That is false." or "that is untrue, see this ___", etc..

I admit, I agree that "Lie." was a little on the cold side. I find that when people blurt out something so obviously and verifiably false that they are either being lazy or facetious which also does not "lead to a constructive conversation". Perhaps if I had the ability to downvote it I would have done that and moved on. Not an excuse, just an explanation.

Fair point; I see what you mean. It just seems like all it takes is just a few words, and the tone changes dramatically though the meaning remains the same.

I just see it a lot here and I pay (way too much) attention to the words/phrases people use, and that one bothers me especially for whatever reason.
