I'm pretty sure Troll and Hawk would get how I meant it and I mostly wrote it to poke fun at them.
Poke away.

Appreciate the history lesson. I'm just using the word philistine as it's usually used but I know nothing of it's origin.
Yeah most people use it that way. Whether it's right or wrong is beside the point, it's an accepted usage. Like when people say Samaritan, they should be saying Good Samaritan, as the Samaritans were known to be a right bunch of dicks, which is why it is shown as a really interesting event in the Bible that it's one of them that helps Jesus when he falls with the cross. But I don't see the suicide prevention organisation rebranding as "The Good Samaritans", now do you?

Nea just likes poking holes in things sometimes.
