Well there you go being all reasonable like, you'll take all the fun out of it.
Although shorthand like this is generally very useful so you don't have to explain what's going on every other paragraph, as long as it's not used in a err... Cross fanatical group discussion.
Of course, by the time these terms at normally employed, then there is generally no chance left for a reasonable discussion anyway. As soon as you attack the other side instead of the argument it's generally down to who can keep shouting longest
