What's the etiquette around here? Or, a sideways introduction...

Guilty conscience? Lol
And no my comment was painted with a broad brush, it's pretty normal practice from a TON of members to get into the big word pissing matches.
Nobody specific, just something I notice quite often.
You do always look dashing though regardless.

Really, Im not too concerned with other peoples impressions of myself, especially not yours!
And I mean that in a good way, as in I dont think you think Im an *******.
I wouldnt be surprised, though, if some others do.
 
Ah, but in OT it needs to have a certain, "I don't know what".

And if they do, just be extra dashing when you encourage them to go to hell.

I've seen many use big words when simpler words could be used but it's only a select few that just take it over the top and typically just look much more stupider (lol) in the end.

I ain't saying nuttin about just using proper English.

Sometimes bigger words sound gooder than littler ones. : )

What can I say, I have an extensive vocabulary.

Me too my current favorite is ubiquitous. My all time favorite is fusty, as in "What a fusty old curmudgeon." Actually the expression "fusty old" is redundant but it just sounds better that way.

I love the word, ubiquitous but what the steamiest sauna is fusty?

Google time.
