No, No, No! You see, "Rinkworkaholics" has, contained within it, "workaholics" and that's working too, which is something that we try to stay away from as much as possible!

People who spend too much time here are more likely to be procrastinators than workaholics!

Besides, Sam was the first to use the term "Rinky-Dinks" to my knowledge (and I was there). And, since what Sam says is final, quad erat demonstrandum (*Greek or Latin: means something like "thus, the facts demonstrate my point".)

-Ka"Rinkantiworkaholics? No...that's not right..."z!
