A thought that occurred to me

A thought that occurred to me while my Bet­ter Half and his brother worked on his car and some tech­ni­cal com­puter things this after­noon– what do you call all those “jerk­face” and “jack­ass” and other name-calling exchanges between oth­er­wise appar­ently grown men?

Men-dearments.

You may com­mence spread­ing the term through­out the blogosphere.

  1. I guess that doesn’t count when a woman says that to her hus­band. No, that would not be very endear­ing, that would be grounds for divorce.
