Yes pastorchucky,
"Larri" doesn't cut it, anymore than "Gibby" or "Marty".


Ima luvn this thread incidentally, tho I thot you should all know,
I support the proper use of diction and spelling.
No short cuts or abbreviations for me!
Nosiree, yagot that?!?

Okay, so what do we call an Alvarez? Alvies? Rezes? Help me out here please. Gibby owners are welcome to chime in too. Thanks, Biggie Handsies.

[Rev Roy]

Ok...will someone please point me to AGF’s safe space. I’m feeling a little fragile now. Thanks, Rev Snowflakey

As one who frequently and affectionately refers to his gaggle of Gibsons as Gibbys, I apologize Bandy...

Yes...yes, it is...

To paraphrase ol' Billy Shakespeare, "A Froggy by any other name will still sound as sweet..."

I once sat in on a job interview where several applicants were in for the same job equal to mine. One applicant used so much "jargon" he came across as a big BS'er. Even if he did know the job and could do it I didn't want to work with him so I said no. He didn't get the job.

When grown men use endearments in both animate and inanimate contexts it's a bit uncomfortable to engage in their discussion.

Add Yammy to the list.

Perhaps uncomfortable for you.
Grown men vary, and no one type is superior.
