My colleague’s last name is Drossman. I asked him, “Doesn’t that mean Garbageman?”
He took offense.

Good grammar is important but big biceps is more importanter.

Ive got the big biceps already… At this stage I would much prefer better communication skills.

Perhaps they’re related. Bigger biceps (or other muscles) require less communication skills.
However, small muscles require great communication skills (and intelligence) to keep you from biting off more than you can chew.

True dat. For example, on another thread there’s a certain 6-foot, 175-190#, self-described “lanky” guy talking a lot of smack at the Bulldog, including gratuitous disparaging remarks directed at his family.
My impression is, his alligator mouth is writing checks his canary ass couldn’t cash in real life.
(As an aside, one of the rules-of-thumb I use to distinguish between real men and internet tough guys online is this: No matter how heated and/or personal an exchange may get, real men never, never, never makes gratuitous insulting remarks about someone’s family. Only adolescents and cowards do this.)

HA! @bulldog9899, yes, an essay on the above, interchangeably using both formats depending on which you are specifically discussing. Obviously, use MLA if citing a Chicago style and visa-versa.
