Dear Zip,

It warms the nether corners of my heart to see that we have sunk to the depths of enabling our less-brain-enabled hog brethren by giving a name to this malady.  However, I believe Macos pretty well covered this behavior with the levels of assholism that he so aptly graphed at the Hog Rock.  You know that I hate to stir the pot of controversy, but why take a perfectly good mega-asshole and try to give him a moniker that almost bespeaks respectability.  I feel this is a contrivance and quite frankly would like Dr. Doogie to weigh in on the medical veracity of this condition.  If this is quackery, who better to sniff it out?

Quackery Sniffer

Thus I say, let the debate begin.  Isn't being a bona fide asshole, and admitting it in the classic twelve step method, sufficient?  Catchy name aside, do we really need Hoggeritis?  I would like other Hogs to weigh in on this.

Sincerely,

Give It a Lick Dick,

Superasshole

Received Howard Stern Treatment

Zip, I asked for a simple medical opinion.  The good Dr. gives me the Rush Limbaugh/Howard Stern treatment.  I can see he has been Macosonized, and seems pretty bitter about it I might add.  I would normally put faith in a professional such as Dr. Doogie, however, this rant has me worried about a certain Hog's rationality. There may be something to this Hoggeritis after all.  I know there will be more debaters so I won't tie the web up.  I look forward to the erudite reply's that will be sent in on this exceptionally weighty matter!  Opposable thumbs, hmmm?

Bink, I hate to admit this but you have me thinking which, in and of itself, is a malady that I had avoided for a number of years.  That is until that asshole Macos got my noodle in a fever over this entire issue.  Though Dr. Doogie’s opinion is in, I must admit your argument has merit.  Had you not muddied it with that shameless play for cash it might have carried the day. Under the circumstances I prefer to wait for others to give voice.
