This reminds me of:

In college a friend and I would debate about the virtues of VFR's and 
Triumph motorcycles every chance we got. I have a Triumph, and he a Honda 
VFR. NO extreme language or any thing like what you mention above, EXCEPT 
that we still don't agree on motorcycles.
The important thing is that we always had a good time.

Which reminds me of the LUG!
