Giant sucking sounds everywhere!
More suck stuff. (Once again, thanks to Instapundit for sounding the alarm.) My Internet connection sucks so bad I can't research anything, but I hate to rely on personal accounts from decades ago without substantiation of any kind. I distinctly remember the "homophobe" aspect of attempts to ban the word "suck" -- and while I haven't hit the motherlode yet, I will pass on this: they have been trying to ban "suck" in the baseball arena recently, and I know that team owners are very susceptible to pressure by forces of political correctness such as word police. If you want to read about baseball fans in Boston being prohibited from wearing "Yankees suck" T shirts, read this atrocity. Same thing with the Seattle Mariners, and that's too bad, because Seattle was once as cool as San Francisco (the latter fell to tyranny back in the 1980s), but the PC clowns now have an insidious stranglehold there too. Here's another account of sinister Seattle suckery. Clearly, the language police are the ones who suck, and they must be told so. The insidious, creepingly relentless nature of their movement reminds me of what a Scottish sci-fi writer called "clammy suckers" in another context. Their clammy suckers reach everywhere. They suck -- in the truest, purest context of that word. They want -- literally -- to suck away our freedom. No wonder they want to ban a word which so devastatingly describes them. There is only one answer: MILITANTLY PRO-SUCK SPEECH! READ MY LIPS! I will fight them on the beaches! I will fight them in the bedroom! I will never surrender! They'll have to pry the word "suck" from my cold, dead, sucky ass modem! posted by Eric on 08.03.03 at 02:14 PM

Well, I did see a good one on a Harley today: ALL PEOPLE SUCK. Eric · August 8, 2003 04:23 AM And there's the ever-popular Mean People Suck, which was quickly supplemented by Nice People Swallow, but that may be another issue entirely. Or not. CGHill · August 10, 2003 04:45 AM |
