Faux pas

May I make a suggestion/request?

I know we need to keep updated on the hump and all his dastardly deeds because our survival depends on it. But, we don't have to use any form of his real name to accomplish this. You know that every time the hump's name appears, he and all his flying monkey followers cheer. It's bad enough that he lives in all of our heads, we don't have to show him/them that he does. How about if we use whatever nickname we prefer in the thread titles?

Thank you for your time and consideration!

I admit I don't use it much because, polite circles, but it still makes me laugh and miss John Stewart badly.

and have only used his adopted "real" surname when I have to, in letters to the editor. The shitler came when he called "shithole countries."

I dislike it when some call him "Trumpy" because it sounds "cute" and affectionate, same with "Donnie".

I detest seeing his face, completely and have asked before why almost all of the news internet outlets find it necessary to put a picture of his fucking face on every item that mentions him, from three to a half dozen times on a single page. And this went for DU threads, too, not so much anymore. But there would be threads with pictures of the a-hole.

try to avoid seeing and hearing him whenever possible. We all know who and what he is. They and we could just refer to him as the one who's ruining everything. You'd think the media could/would be more imaginative for eff sake.

Sometimes for context I feel that the idiot's real name must be used. I NEVER refer to him with President in front of his name.

But, I'm thinking of switching to simply "Turd" for the duration.

I can't help but wonder how may people would really want to live in Turd Tower, or book a stay at a Turd International Hotel.
