Nope, sorry, can't help you there.
This is scarily like the "Thou shalt not use the word "greg" as a verb"
thread of many moons ago. Isn't a bit ridiculous to take umbrage on
Greg's behalf at something he'd almost certainly laugh off himself? I

the Whimsical side of Harmless.
One of the leavening things about the Cult of Greg is that as religions
> not the least because the original comment about it a few months
go, both the object of worship, and several sections of the Priesthood
are quite willing to send themselves (and each other, more to the point)
up mercilessly. Taking this stuff Too Seriously is all very well; Greg
Forbid that we should be mandated to take it Poe-Facedly, too.
