Charlie: I was speaking rhetorically; not specifically to you.
Sam: That wouldn’t be a minhag and you know it. A minhag yisroel is a minhag yisroel whether it’s your minhag or not and whether you like it or not. Especially if it is backed up by Rishonim and Achronim including the Rema and contemporary. (Seen the YWN pictures of Rav Chaim and the many other Gedolim in EY and here using chicken kapporos? Rav Chaim isn’t online, so can you kindly inform Rav Chaim that he is doing something that is “Assur Min HaTorah according to many prominent Rishonim”?)
