Is this really THAT offensive???

This morning, a friend posted this:

We're buying Kelly a new ipod nano for her 13th birthday and when you order online from apple you can have it engraved. So I need some ideas on something cute and quirky to write on it...any ideas??

My response:

"Dont get knocked up."

This resulted in a tirade of rage from her and her husband. I apologized multiple times for offending them, despite the fact that technically, it IS good advice for a 13-year old in this day and age, and the humor was totally tongue-in-cheek.

Am I an tactless asshole in denial, or do they need to lighten up?
