Somehow The Straw Fracas sounds more benign than the Thin Mints Melee.
Perhaps a ranking of severity would do the trick:1. Doneybrook2. Melee3. Fisticuffs4. Fracas5. Strongly-worded letter
Incidentally, "melee" was an answer (well, question) on Jeopardy last night. I said, "Melee. Like the Thin-Mints Melee." It took me a moment to understand why my daughter was giving me a quizzical look.
