LOL Vigil! So many questions, it's hard to pass this up.

As to one man's asshole being another's best friend.........I think after a while the "best" friend (if he's any friend at all) will tell the asshole he IS indeed an asshole and smack him upside the head!

Absolute definition? Not really. There are different grades of assholiness!

Culturally remote? Can't happen! When you meet an asshole, you know it. And they are everywhere.........kinda like dog shit when you've stepped in it.

Prime examples? No true role model as I don't think they have a world-wide fan club. If you've ever heard of Howard Stern......he's an asshole at times. He might give you a general idea of what to look for. We've had several posters on the boards that would qualify. I'm way too reserved to name nics........but we've seen um around.

Hope this helps..........and LOL again. Stop worrying! Your within the perimeter of good verses assholiness!
