I try to stay out of the language wars as much as possible, and I've particularly sat this round out because it was started by a company who's trying to sell something. However, the word that A Word A Day sent out today seemed strangely appropriate. The word was “Kilkenny cats” and you can read more about them here. I particularly liked the limerick:

There wanst was two cats of Kilkenny
Each thought there was one cat too many
So they fought and they fit
And they scratched and they bit
'Til instead of two cats there weren't any.

Appropriate...
