Yes, well, such faddish vernacular to which some regulars have become privy is out-of-place and cliquish, IMHO.

I don't think a Conservative in good standing should necessarily have to know the thread's current level of learned conformity in response to being called "an a$$hole." Hasn't JimRob clearly called such a thing a verboten "personal attack?"

BTW, what is 'DH' among this in-the-know crowd?

I say such things with all respect, excepting that ad hominem moniker.

DH most likely means “Dear Hubby”.
People often resort to the vernacular when the technical details are not of importance to the hearer; it differs from case to case whether such is throwing out the baby with the bath water.
