Why don't they call a spade a spade?

[Lilith7]

So you have no standards, obviously.

And all you can add to the discussion is name calling. That just shows your lack of intelligence if that is all you can think of.

       If you consider what you have to be "standards" perhaps a more appropriate word might be "Bollards", or something sounding vaguely similar?

(However, you must be credited with making Snollygosters appear to be relatively erudite persons of rare integrity and intellectual fortitude; a mighty task indeed.)

BTW, a spade is no substitute for a Steel tipped, hickory handled, earth conveyor, manually powered.

What an interesting word, Bollards is - reminds of some other word, can't quite remember.
