This needs clarification and elaboration . . . . .


MrFun (adj.): generally used to describe someone as lacking a sense of humor in online forums, when in actuality, this person has a sense of humor in real life. The origin of this adjective was created by a gay Yankee Iowan. Those who take the adjective description as truth, tend to see the word "MrFun" as being ironic.

Religionista n.

Adherent of one of many strange mystery cults (poss. dating back to Orphic and Egyptian cults) which ascribes wonderful powers to supernatural beings with names such as Great Walrus of Love, the Flaming Carrot, Bonzo Dog Doodah Band, and seeks to deny civil rights to others based on non-belief in these creatures.

Also: n. One who refuses to recognise the non-belief in supernatural beings as a 'belief', classifying same as merely an 'opinion', or a 'whimsical notion'.

Speer chegitz n.

Delusional construct based on wishful thinking and ignorance, presupposing the longevity of 1970s master-slave scenarios into the 21st Century, all evidence to the contrary. See 'Mandingo' and collected works of Kyle Onstott. Also later film career of boxer Ken Norton and actor Susan George.

kenobi v.i.

To argue relentlessly the same disproven point until all available oxygen has been used up and all human lifeforms extinguished; to ignore points of logic raised by others; to bring up irrelevancies in the hope of shaking off pursuit; to live in vain hope.

To imagine that 'all men are created equal' means only persons of the male gender, and certainly not homosexualists, and not the daughters of Eve neither; for as St. Jerome wrote:

'Nothing is so unclean as a woman in her periods; what she touches she causes to become unclean'.

Yea, verily, as it was written, so mote it be.

Park Avenue n.proper

A void which preceded matter, and endured after matter came to exist; an absence of common sense, wit or respect for human melanin content or culture. A cultural wasteland full of out of town shopping centres, reality television shows and warm beer, hemmed in by shell suits and lottery tickets.

Park Avenue v.i.

To attach inferiority to people's geographical origins, nationalities or skin colour, usually through complete ignorance.

v.t.

To come to dwell in a void without knowledge but with many sheep, or to become a vastation.

Libertarianize verb - To endlessly parse a thread until it degenerates into something illegible to everyone but libertarians and anarchists. Shortly afterwards the thread generally dies, not because the argument is resolved and one side wins, rather one or more of the participants tire and lose interest.
