    I never knew of that, thanks. Is it too old-fashioned, though?

    Hard to believe it's pejorative. How cool would it be to be called a battle-axe? :D

    Old fashioned hmmmm had not really considered it as such. Seems insulting to me - decidedly non-feminine!

    Hm, I know what Max would say, but he's a street rat so he's rude beyond what's allowed on this forum so...Princess if you're going for the sarcasm route, but I concur with Queen Kong being a good one in this situation.

    The cop isn't ginger though, and the bratty captive doesn't know her hair color anyway, so don't worry, no ginger jokes. Besides, gingers are cool. :agreed:
