Now you know it's not _that_ wrong. I mean, language is about clarity, right?
And if I read a post by someone that contains egregious violations of the

"Man, you're going to get properly Andrewed for that tangent!" Well, you'd know
exactly what I meant. F'er heaven's sake, you Brits are the ones that turned a
proper noun, and a very good man's name, into a euphemism for coitus. Roger
that! Really? <wink>
