This discussion will NOT be closed (well...at least not by me)
Respect...
what you need...
what you want....

Recognizing and accepting that (most especially) people in this profession tend to be strongly opinionated and have a wicked sense of humor, attempting to regulate humor and opinion, especially in the midst of a "conversation", is both presumptuous and dictatorial.

Towards that end, there is no off-topic discussion in this thread, so long as you can 'somehow' relate it back to respect. Take it where ever it goes, sarcasm is allowed. No...really.

If you had said "Always right", you would have been right, for once. Still, that's progress.

You can always tell a Marine (happy with the uppercase m?), but you just can't tell them much.

You can really walk away humming that tune.

Yeah, but I think I'll stick around.

That's "...tell HIM much". Let's pay closer attention to our grammar.

Uppercase M = more progress. Nice!

Thanks for the heads up. Not sure how that slipped by me but oh well. I would have put "HIM" in boldface for emphasis as opposed to upper case, which could suggest a possible reference to a deity. (Of course, the sentiment still stands, corrected or otherwise)

I had to go with uppercase for emphasis, for I know not how to do the boldface thing. Oh well.

Philly, right above the little typy box, on the far right is a dark uppercase B, you just click on that and then type. Come on this ain't rocket surgery here.

Doug,

Just to be clear, I wasn't suggesting you walk away, humming or anything else. It was just my way of saying that I didn't think it was a very...melodic song. Generational most likely.
