Stop It.

Webster's Dictionary defines "lame" as:

• Crippled or physically disabled, esp. in the foot or leg so as to limp or walk with difficulty
• Impaired or disabled through defect or injury: as in, a lame arm.
• Weak; inadequate; unsatisfactory; clumsy: as in, "Webster's Dictionary defines _____ as _____" is a lame rhetorical device.

Can't we all put aside our difference and agree that no one beyond middle school is allowed to begin a thought with such a lame, LAME phrase?
