No, nothing like that.  It was just a visual commentary regarding some of the histrionics displayed here by "Grumpy Old Men".  There was a particularity benign thread that devolved into a food fight that was "locked" by the moderator.    I thought the photo would be obvious but instead the ambiguity has led to inquiring discussions -most of it grumpy BTW.   :wink:
