Buffalo wings violate that rule and I'm not prepared to give them up.
For me, the rule would be: if it's a dish meant to be eaten with utensils, don't include inedible parts that have to be separated by hand.
Ribs. I don't mind saucy ribs. I suppose if you are supposed to use your hands, maybe it's okay if they get a bit saucy.
Yeah I think that's the big thing: don't have a dish that requires shifting from utensil to fingers and back... especially if there's sauce.
I don't really like buffalo wings. I know boneless wings are basically just "nuggies", but I prefer them, especially if things are getting saucy.
A dry spice blend can make for acceptable wings, but I actually still prefer something like a spicy breading and a bigger piece of chicken, if I'm going to have to deal with bones.
But, I will admit that is a good border case, and isn't quite the sin that shrimp w/ tail covered in cream sauce is.
