  1. It strikes me that I probably shouldn't use the phrase "The linguistic equivalent of wearing a fedora with a T-shirt" on a board full of bronies.

    1. @ceruleanspark you afraid of offending them? People who dress like that offend our eyes

      1. @rarity No, I'm afraid they're going to think that means that it's totally OK.

          1. @rarity The full statement is "Ending sentences with "Good sir" in a vain attempt to sound "Gentlemanly" is the linguistic equivalent of wearing a fedora with a t-shirt."

            1. @ceruleanspark and you think people will read that and think "Oh, I like to say good sir! I should buy a fedora, I saw some at Wal-Mart"?

              1. @rarity No, I think they already have the fedora and they'll consider that statement validation.
