This is a true story of legendary tiki name calling - this is no joke. Ancient scrolls from Easter Island (aka messages written on wood) were first translated ??? I dunno, let's say 100 years ago by a group of archaeologists from Chile (who owned/still owns Easter Island - bare with me here). The first scroll that was translated was big news. The public, expecting a tale of battle or cannibalism or starvation were instructed by the archaeologist that the scroll when translated read as follows:

"My penis is bigger than your penis"

So name calling is aok and very Tiki! You can go to the Easter Island museum in Santiago, Chile and buy a replica of this scroll with the translation written on the back.
