About This Quote

The meaning of this quote is that if you're busy you can't be bothered to call someone a prat. This is another common way of saying it's not worth the time to call someone a prat. Saying it without saying it is also common but you can also explain the other meaning quite easily by adding something like "I thought someone should" or "you seemed too busy to do something like that".
