I was given an infraction about my posting "If your mother had wheels she would have been a bike", where apparently the moderator thought it was an insult to the user

Just because the moderator does not know the saying, doesn't mean it is an insult and I posted a thread about it here to notify the moderator that it is a legitimate saying that people use in Europe. It is an abridged saying of "if my aunt had balls, she'd be my uncle"

+ the user in question said he did not report me, so why did the moderator think he was offended?

There’s just something perfect about the clip; Gino’s rage, Holly’s innocence, and Phil’s malevolent laments. I can’t get enough of it. It turns out that “If my grandmother had wheels…” is actually a classic, sarcastic Italian response used when someone wishes a situation was entirely different to the reality in front of them.

It uses as a reply to a dumb/imaginary wish.
