Yes, this was a joke. Though I sometimes use meaning #3 here:

http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/nazi#Noun

See http://www.shlomifish.org/meta/FAQ/#pc_nazi for an explanation of my 
policy regarding it.

Saying "nazi" as a synonym for "needlesly strict" is tolerated in English, and 
in Hebrew, but I was told that in German, it carries too many bad 
cronotations to be used like that.

Anyway, I didn't mean to offend Guy or anyone. It was just a a way to express 
the fact that I felt that our discussion became somewhat heated. Anyway, I 
see Guy's further response is pretty calm, so all ends well.
