I'm sure you've been around here long enough to realize that everybody loves our Super Mex. Everyone who poked fun knows him personally, not just from the keyboard. My crazy old uncle told me that you can tell how close people are by how hard they pick on each other. You wouldn't tell a casual acquaintance that they're a moldy old broken ***tard, but if you tell a good friend that, they will point out how your belly sticks out more than your dikydo, and ask how long it's been since you saw it. Then y'all both laugh and carry on with your conversation.
No harm no foul.
