Just found out my neighbor’s name is Rinehold. Cracks me up. Not my neighbor. He seems like a good guy.
Get it… Rinehold Neighbor.

Sticks in the mud.

Uh, shouldn’t that be “stick-in-the-muds?”
Anyway, coming from somebody who says “howdy, niebuhr!”, that’s pretty rich.

Oh, what the hell. :)

1. If you check more than one source, you’ll find that both forms are acceptable. The plural form you pick depends on whether you’re talking about more than one subject or more than one object. Bos was referring to more than one subject, so “sticks in the mud” would be correct. Please see: http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/stick_in_the_mud

2. “Stick in the mud” is an idiomatic expression, so really Bos can pluralize it however he wants.

3. We all acknowledge your superior intellect; there’s no need to keep being a pedantic ass.

“We all acknowledge your superior intellect; there’s no need to keep being a pedantic ass.”
WTF?
Aw, poor Jason. You really have no sense of humor, do you? I put the “QED” as a hint to those who are not humor-impaired that the post was meant to be funny, as in the philosophy-wordplay-spirit of this thread. You obviously didn’t get it.
All of my posts were intended in the same spirit as Bos’ post.
Grow up.
