    Nah... I've used clever plays on people's names on other occasions, like "Jessie Jackass", "Nutsy Pelosi", and "Milquetoast Romney".
    Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
    But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
    Than a fool in the eyes of God

      Ah - ok, I was referring to Carpe's complaint that you were "altering people's names in his "quotes" (e.g., "Tassmoron" and "JimLamebrain")"
      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

        The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy...returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Martin Luther King

          And that makes it less childish?

          Really, CP - your first answer was better. It either deserves commentary all around, and is childish all around (which is frankly what I think), or just accept it as "how they post."

            Sure.... I'll try to resist calling Shuny out for his childishness.

            (Reminds me of the Hee Haw skit where one of the ladies (over the clothesline in the back yard) tells her neighbor, "And I ain't gonna talk bad about my other neighbors, even if they ain't no good".)

              I am amazed that you find any of these "clever."

                    And the reason for this is...?

                                It's sort of like when someone gets a pie in the face, and he says, "I don't think that's very funny!" while everybody around him is roaring with laughter.
