A Spatula City

Glossary

(For those times when you're not sure of the meaning of something I say)

 


Term         Meaning          
                     
"Kaiser Wilhelm von Slickmeister"         Nickname given to Bill Clinton upon his invasion & subsequent occupation of the White House. Intended to convey his Nazilike rule of the United States of America. Adjective after "von" may be modified for the occasion - "von Skirtchaser", "von Draftdodger", etc.  IMPORTANT NOTE:  You may have noticed Rush Limbaugh, over the past two or three years, begin referring to Clinton as Wilhelm Von Der Schlick Meister.  I have no direct evidence that he took my terminology, appropriated it, and altered it for his own use - but I find it verrrrrrrrry interesting how closely related they are - especially given that Rush admitted actually having heard of Fidonet, and was rumored to have either read the Fidonet Limbaugh echo himself or had one of his minions read it - the echo being, of course, where this term first appeared nationally...          
                     
"Der Kaiser"         Shorthand for "Kaiser Wilhelm von Slickmeister".  NOTE:  See previous; now apply that to the Rush term "der Schlick Meister".  I'm sorry - that's more than a coincidence...          
                     
"Prince Ozone"         Former - gawd, that sounds so good - Vice-Perpetrator and Demoscum Presidential candidate Albert A. "Algore" Gore, Junior. So named in dishonor & ridicule of his excuse-for-a-book, "Earth in the Balance" - or, as Rush likes to call it, "Earth in the Lurch".          
                     
"Queen Hilarious"         Nickname for Hillary Rodham (Shaftem) Clinton, the wicked bi...uh, witch of the West Wing.          
                     
"Princess Uglo"         Chelsea. 'Nuff said.          
                     
"Georgie-Porgy Snuffleupagus"         The other child of the Clintons - George Stephanopolous.  Now appearing on ABC network television, which of course stands for "Always Believe Clinton" (groan)          
                     
"Das Klintonreich"         The whole kit-n-kaboodle of 'em - from Der Kaiser to Queen Hilarious, right down to James Carville, Paul Begala, Janet Reno and Greg Craig. They rule as did Hitler in '30s - '40s Germany.          
                     
"simplistic"         A liberal term - Translation: "your idea was excellent, and it's the perfect solution for the problem at hand, but because I'm a liberal and you're a conservative, I'll be damned if I'm going to give you credit."          
                     
"SpatulaOp"         Me, the host - the OPerator of SPATULA City BBS          
                     
"Spatulaite", "Spatula-ette"         You - my honored guest.          
                     
"Demoscum"         Synonym for "Democrat". Most appropriate.          
"Shrub" Synonym for current President George W. Bush.  Sadly, I can't take credit for this one - I have to, grudgingly, give it to (gulp) Molly Ivins.  That is, after I was able to transcribe it from the original manuscript (it's hard to read crayon sometimes)...
                     
"Damn Bitchards"         Former Texas excuse-for-a-governor Ann Richards. Thinks she's a true Texan only because of her hick accent - "After awwwwl deeeeeeez yeerrrrrrrrs uv liss'nin' t' Jawwrge Buuuush, Ah figgerrd yew neeeed'd t' heeer whut uh reeeeeeeel Tayksunnnn souuunnnd'd laaaahk". Stupid little pseudo-biker-assed trollop...          
"Heterophobe" Homosexual.  Sodomite.  Limp-wrist.  Fag (American definition).  Can't take credit for this one, either; props to loyal reader and contributor Alan Henderson.  Memo to the heterophobe community:  Hey, it was your decision to tag us right-thinkers with the moronic term "homophobe", despite any evidence with which to support the claim - you have no right to bitch when we come back with this.  Deal with it.
"feminoid"         A feminist - female who looks like a real woman, but isn't. Similar to "femiNazi", a term popularized by Rush Limbaugh.  Must give credit to former radio talk-show host David Gold on this one.          
                     
"Stepfordism" The quality of adhering to and practicing a set of beliefs in a zombie-like fashion, and forcefully expelling those in a group who do not conform.  See the movie "The Stepford Wives" for further reference.  Generally practiced by liberal groups and some Sunday School classes.
"Cragerization" The process of taking someone's quotes in a message reply, and bastardizing them so as to make the original poster look extremely silly, then adding a cute rejoinder for effect.  Sadly, I was not the originator of this practice - it was done to me in pre-Fidonet days by an asshole Grateful Dead fan...redundant, yes, I know...named John Gresham.  (SIDE NOTE:  Gresham should continue to stay as far away from me as possible.)  I took the practice and utilized it on the old Fidonet Limbaugh echo, with hilarious results (SIDE NOTE TO GRESHAM:  Which is what ensues when someone other than an amateur as yourself does it).  So named in honor of the master (grin) by David Hartung...or was it Bob Blount?

 

This list is by no means complete, as I'm pretty much having to rebuild this list from scratch. I'll add more as they come to mind.
