Should they be fats or fatties in the BRTD lexicon?

My dad has a particular gift of foreseeing the scapegoats of society before htey actually become scapegoats.

He knew smokers were about to have their turn years ago, and he warned me "next, it's gonna be fat people.  You just wait, they'll be demonized and they'll be the next to be shunned by society"

And right on schedule...

Opebo has reformed grammar. It's a huge hit. English teachers will adjust.

Fat people have always been made fun of. Look at Porky pig. There are just a lot more fats these days.

I was talking beyond being made fun of... look at the movements in government against fat people.  They might just be stirring right now, but it'll get bigger and more mainstream.

adjective-nouns were actually started at least 200 years ago by the Federalists when they called the Jeffersonians the Democrat Party. So yeah, there are poors, dumbs, fats, talls, shorts, hots, uglies and riches...just as there are gays, blacks, browns, whites, libs and clowns.

You mean our punk lib radicals from the midwest. Tongue


I don't like "religious" though, I think "Fundie" works just fine.  I would like to add the "lazies", though.

I thought of a new one.

"Specials".

This term could be used to describe jamespol and gporter, among others.

JS, you know we all luv ya, but seeing "Nudes! Nudes! More Nudes..." in a posting where we see a giant picture of Barbara Bush is quite disconcerting.  Go easy on us, most wise of the Lefties.  Cheesy

I will be dispatching Babs as soon as the election is decided.  Hope to change sigs more often.  That one just says it all for me as to why I am on the outs with that tribe.

That said, I have a question involving opie-isms.

Would people with chronic flatulence be called "farts"?

Nope. Fart isn't an adjective. The correct term is "flatulents".

Well, opebo does have some sort of English degree, IIRC it might be a Master's.

Yes he does to my knowledge. Though I wonder why he bothered to get one considering he plans on never working.

An English degree generally has very little to do with working.
