So you agree that Roy is being unethical? That's interesting.

It's perfectly fine. My problem with it is how Roy has held a holier than
thou attitude, and criticized the use of such language in the past. Yet it
seems fine for him to use it.
My argument is not that Roy doesn't have the right to argue or complain, he
certainly does. My argument is that he's nypocritical in his arguments,
and has a "do as I say, not as I do" mentality.

Doesn't matter. I have no problem with him using such phrases. Because
such phrases are just hyperbole. Roy, however, has professed that these
turns of phrase are not acceptable though, unless of course he uses them.

The Dali Lama might disagree.
