Subject: RE: BS: Nicknames
Spaw... I am aghast and agape. How dare you attempt to make light of such a serious travesty. Why, I oughta bugger you with no reach around, you, you... Spew you!

On the other hand, which I try to use sparsely for obvious reasons, I can understand the negativity of the use of some nicknames. Using same to degrade an intellectual opponent when none need be is a low blow and perhaps detrimental to one's own arguements. Comical to some, rude to others. Fair? No... depending on the opponent and the circumstances. I mean, sometimes ya just wanna smack the shit outta some... nevermind.

Yeah, I did. So what? Call me names... just don't call me late for dinner.
