That would be a great contribution to a book of funny putdowns.
I couldn't help laughing.

But thinking seriously, I think we would be well advised, in this
list, to avoid putting people down, even in funny ways -- especially
when we criticize of what they have said.  We need to make an effort
to avoid personal hostility when we disagree.

You're not the only one this applies to.  Eric too needs to respect
the rest of the people on this list when disagreeing with them.
