   You know, people didn't used to take offense like that but now that is a   
   good policy as I have seen people mistake taglines for something the author   
   actually typed manually into their message.

   I have a few that refer to the Clinton era that I understand but I bet   
   others either don't or would no longer find funny -- too much has happened
