...no, i haven't changed teams. just making fun of the word ;)
no sausages for me, please. it goes against my beliefs. you see, i’m a vaginaterian.
*yawn*
everything has a label these days. every day, some "new" faction, occupation, phobia, syndrome, disease, condition or definition requires naming. it makes me tired. as if the english language isn’t bastardized enough with made-up words; now we have to put up with up countless new “words” for things which have always existed.
do we think we are somehow “approving” homosexuality by “formally” inserting the phrase “gay marriage” in the dictionary ?. does it not occur to us that it has always existed ?.
same-sex marriage did not become "okay" just because we have now named it. it seems like just another slur disguised as acceptance to me. now that it has a definition, it also has a matching faction and hate group, 'cause they have something they can name to legislate against now.
these days, you can "guilt" someone or "version" something. you can offend somebody just by implying that they are either male or female ... we all just want to be “persons” ... (our poor government ... having to reprint all those drama week flyers because they used “actress” instead of “actor” and the feminazis’ got them for being patronizing) ...
... they saw no irony in this, either.
today, i looked up new dictionary entries. every single one of them was either a “gibberish” word or a new name for an old thing. i uncovered such gems as:
"fatoush", "blamestorming", "cantopop", "bupkis", "noughties", "muggle", "shotgun cloning”, “turntablists”, “docu-soap”, “cardboard city”, “youthism”, “loved-up”, “pink pound”, “waitron”, “date rape”, “detox” “mCjob”, and ... “boom boom!”
that’s right. “boom boom!”.
can you believe it ?. in the oxford dictionary for all to see. right above “boomer” ... (which is apparently a kangaroo. stupid book) ... "boom boom!"
oh, saddest day. i never thought i’d say this, ... but damn you, basil brush !!!!
