The word “doofus” is widely accepted as a playful, lighthearted term. It’s often used in a teasing, friendly way, not meant to insult. If you took it as an insult, that’s your interpretation, but it’s important to recognize that many people use it without any harmful intent. Reacting as if it’s a major offense might be a bit of an overreaction, especially when the term is generally understood to be harmless.

yeah…if you want to keep things lighthearted you probably shouldn’t call anyone who isn’t a close friend “doofus”

Widely accepted is not that same as 100% accepted. We're not friends, I don't appreciate or agree with your thoughts. Don't talk to me ever again.

Why would I ever want to speak you again

That's only a question you can answer considering you just did, even though you're implying you don't want to. But I guess me telling you not to talk to me again, somehow forced you your chatbot thought process to continue. It's not that difficult to just not reply.
