      If you don’t like the term “toot” it’s fine, it shouldn’t matter who coined it. Don’t make your likes or dislikes dependent on who stuff or ideas come from.

      I just wanted to explain some history of that term.

      The knowledge of that history and context is what should influence your taste, not the specific individuals involved.

        I thought the begrudging tone would make it obvious but I was joking. so was hbg by the way; he clearly said it because it would be ridiculous, not because it would be smart. it’s fucking dumb.
