would be good if he could stop being an aviation snob too. Oh, and while we're at it, he should tone down the music snobbery.

Actually, his inveterate snobbery about the cars the rest of us drive would not be missed either would it?

An appreciation of quality isn't the same as snobbery, old boy.

You're going to join in with the name calling, are you peter? You're awfully brave, taking the side of the bully.

He’s actually a vehement opponent of snobbery, h. Always having a pop at my literary snobbery, he is.

Like most of us, he’s only a ‘snob’ when it comes to things he actually knows or cares about and not so much about things that are more peripheral to him.

He says things about the Stones. Really bad things.

I can see his point about them, but he can be intemperate in his utterances. It’s his Irish blood.

Merely a catch up with rtp.

He has an enlarged prostate and they're going to poke a camera up his winkie. :-(

No dear boy, a fetish is a sexual proclivity; such as your mother has for my cock.

I’m speaking of its original meaning, you uneducated prole. Just because the first time you encountered the word was while you stroked your engorged button mushroom of a member over a story in Forum, that doesn’t make that the definitive meaning.

The problem with lexical semantics b is that the mob rules and it is very frustrating when a particular word you are fond becomes a popular misnomer and, with language being an organic entity, that word then changes its meaning.

I detest how everyone uses sanguine to mean confident in a cool and calm manner simply because its meaning has become conflated with sang-froid. Sanguine, as you will know, is loud and enthusiastic optimism to the point of stupidity.

Dear old Willie Butler Yeats has a poem about this sort of thing, h:

‘I made my song a coat,
Covered with embroideries,
Out of old mythologies.
From heel to throat.
But the fools caught it.
Wore it in the world’s eyes as though they’d wrought it.
Fools, let them take it.
For there’s more enterprise in walking naked.’

Apologies if I’ve misquoted.
