343) This ahole keeps using tsunami in many contexts.
Lindsey Graham told Fox News Channel’s “Fox & Friends” on Thursday that Republicans need to counter a “tsunami of liberal money” flowing into Georgia ahead of the Jan. 5 runoff elections,
Why tsunami lately? Is it because of blue tsunami posts on Twit? It wasn't a frequent quip, blue wave was much more of a thing. Ms. G is trippin. _________________ GOAT MAGIC REEL SEDALE TRIBUTE EDDIE DONX!
What is this use of "clean" to describe organic foods? I hear it used more and more in food product commercials, usually ones that ship produce and smoothie starter kits. Panera also uses it, they were probably the first to describe their clean food.
Is clean food the opposite of dirty food? I understand what they're grabbing for, but the word seems misplaced to me. Maybe they couldn't find a word that better captures their concept. Or maybe they DO want you to think their food is clean and all other food is dirty in order to sell more. Ah HA! That's prolly it.
341) Doug Collins and "SOOOOW!!"
This one is about 20 yrs overdue, but I have a lot of NBC games that had Dougie as a color commentator. He's a likeable guy and I don't wish him ill at all, but I always found his voice and overuse of the word "so" to be punishing to my brain. When his voice was raised, it sounded very whiny and he said so in nearly every blurb. "Iverson is SOOW tough!", "The Kings are working SOOOW HARD!" "Shaq is SOOW dominant down low!" Everything he said had that dramatic shouting SOOW! in it. I just listened to a 2000 gm that I recapped for YT and I was forced to listen to him again. Easily the worst NBC guy for me. I could tolerate Snapper and Bill Walton's back and forth stuff. Dougie to me is on par with Jeff Van Gundy. I can't stand JVG either. He's a complete asswipe and talks about crap that has nothing to do with the game. He acts like a drive time sports radio guy and Breen gives his phony ass laugh to every joke. In a 2010 Lakers/Celtics Finals game, Gm3 iirc, JVG went on a tangent about soft serve ice cream and I was thinking this is the damn Fiinals w/ the two most historic franchises and we have THIS as our crew.

Newsy terms. Tired of hearing about Trump's bluster.
His bluster is a stain on the body politic. _________________ “We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.” ― Elie Wiesel

He's sorry, not sorry about it, the pundints are saying. Writ large.
Body politic sounds like Jeff Goldblum would say in The Fly. He talked about reconfiguring bodies and about insect politics. Brundle: "Not to wax messiannic..." "Drink deep!, or taste NOT!! from the plasma spring!" You only know society's SICK, GREY FEAR of the flesh!"

335.) sperm
Think of how comfortable you were before having read, heard, or said "sperm" versus how you felt afterwards. It might be almost imperceptible, but there is a difference and it's too much. _________________ http://chickhearn.ytmnd.com/

Used by people who assume bully is literal, and I've heard it a couple times again this week on news chans. If you didn't watch Boardwalk Empire or a TR documentary, Teddy was using the slang meaning of bully at the time, meaning "great". In other words, he was validating the office's power in a roundabout way, not saying that it was a tool for bullies. "Bully fuh you," was said at least a few times in BE. That's what it meant, jabroneys, "great for you". Nucky's full-frontal girlfriend w/ the black hair said that to the Irish woman in one of the first few epis. _________________ GOAT MAGIC REEL SEDALE TRIBUTE EDDIE DONX!
