Has the number of insults being posted shown an uptick?

Is it just me, or has the number of insults being posted shown an uptick in the past couple of weeks?

I haven’t particularly noticed it, but you should report it if you see it.

The moderators seem on top of it, but I have scene several threads with multiple back and forths.

I must admit I got my snark engaged several times recently. I find I don't do well with supercilious folks.

I got to admit that I still need to google that Feynman person. He sounds interesting.

Is it the insult quantity or quality that we should be concerned with?

Your mother was a hamster and your father smelled of elderberries!

Now that was just mean...those were hereditary conditions..

TIL a new word at PF.

If we address quality we would be going off topic …

Fair point.

My mother peddles opium, my father's on the dole,
My sister used to walk the streets, but now she's on parole,
One brother plays with little girls, the other raped a steer,
But they won't even talk to me 'cause I'm an Engineer.

Better?

There is no good answer to that question...it is sort of like "so when did you stop beating your wife?"...nice rhyming though... "Engineer"
