Immediately after 9/11, I proposed on another cigar board that we find a substitution for the oft-used term "bomb" to refer to gifting others with cigars. You can imagine with what disinterest my proposal was received.

I consider language to be a living entity which evolves naturally. As with morality, it seems bootless to "legislate" it.

No offense intended, just , and worth every penny.
