Please stop using Latin to criticize posts - a modest proposal

[Politicub]

Saying ad hominem is so 2002. Can we start criticizing people en francais instead?

In addition to mixing things up, it will class up the joint.

Plus we can drop in French phrases in our posts randomly, n'est-ce pas. Everyone gets a pass on using proper French grammar or since that's a pain in le derrière anyway.

It will make us sound like Ms. Piggy, and who can turn away from her irresistible allure?

Certainly not moi.

So instead of saying I've perpetrated the transgression of ad hominem-ism, can people just say something like:

Mon dieu! Vous message est merde like un pungent fromage.

Merci and happy Friday!
