If you don't have the intestinal fortitude to avoid getting offended by someone's screenname then what the hell are you doing playing poker?

I agree. I think the most offensive word in the dictionary is "offensive".

It's not very convoluted at all. It is simple emotional control.

If you are offended by someone's screenname you are not controlling your emotions well at all. If you are not controlling your emotions well at all it is going to be difficult for you to play good poker.

I think the statement is correct, but I sure couldn't explain why.

There's a poster on here whose screen-name on Party is/was "NAMBLAGambla". I laughed pretty hard the first time I saw it.

I don't get offended by screen-names, or anything else that people do online. It makes it a little more satisfying to take away their money, but that's about it.

I'm offended when people fart during my home game, but that doesn't mean it's difficult for me to play good poker.
