The duplicity of the Droids knows no bounds

"Consider who the reference was to...He's still got his pass and he's uttered much worse and not been penalized... "

So, is this some kind of "make up penalty," like the NFL charging a penalty unfairly because they screwed up earlier? Or like the Figure Skating judges [SIC] "balancing out" their screwups by issuing capricious judgments later?

Because Mani gives passes to Droids, being a canonical Droid himself, he looks for an excuse to blast someone who putatively insults a Bee. He sees the putative insult against Elmer, a Bee, as his chance to "even things out." Is this what you're saying?

As for the alleged, putative insult, much ado about nothing.

I'm still waiting for Mani to do somehting about Bill Jackson insultingly referring to me as "Timmy," in clear violation of Mani's ruling that insulting nicknames not be used.

I'll tell you this, if Mani does nothing, by a few days from now, enough time for him to have ruled, then I'll consider it fair game to use nicknames of my choosing for all of the Droids.
