JoeTV, you may appreciate the humor of a certain Chuck Wendig, if you are not already acquainted with his blog.  In one post, he states, "Offending people? Happy to do it. With a shit-eating grin, as a matter
of fact (and there is a turn of phrase that deserves reexamination — why
am I smiling if I’m eating shit? What’s wrong with me? Is the shit
mysteriously delicious?)."  (You can find the full post here: http://terribleminds.com/ramble/2012/06/20/on-the-subject-of-being-offensive/)

Also, perfunctory: superficial, shallow, cursory, sketchy.  There's my public service for the day.  You're welcome.

Thanks, Nicki! Haha.

Btw, I also love Chuck Wendig's stuff. His posts are as useful as they are humorous.

I wholeheartedly agree. (note: no exclamation mark after wholeheartedly)  I'll keep referring to your guidance as I continue my edits.  Thanks.
