    kissdistinctlyamerican: cijimcb:needtherapy:jeffmiller: squashed: generic1: You guys, this is so awesome. The teabaggers are doing this thing they call “astroturfing” where they stand on a patch of AstroTurf and testify to the crowd about their personal stories of… unjust taxation. They don’t know “astroturfing” is slang for corporate money masquerading as a grass roots movement. Everyone else in the political landscape uses it as shorthand for an elaborate sham. Good times. Those silly regular-people rubes, and their ignorance of insider Beltway parlance. I think if you adopt slang you heard somewhere, perhaps you out to verify that it doesn’t mean something counter to your purpose in using it.  And that it doesn’t make you look like an idiot. Dink ‘n flippa!  That’s why I use fluffy fingers when I protest! Oh they are the gift that keeps on giving. So freaking STUUUUPPIIIDDD!!!
