Ha ha  good one!  No, sport, I'm not calling you a dog. But I was using it in a very common and acceptable way.  Things like, "you mah dog" and "he's mah dog" are, today, loving terms bro's give one another. I was trying to slow the hate train and get on better tracks, but you don't want to go there . OK.  Now,  I didn't ridicule your username, but your lack thereof.   Thats what I denied, and YOU did attack me based on how I signed off.  And it is true, you're not my houseboy, you are someones houseboy.  Too bad you can't defend yourself  or your religion (dogma).
