I believe the precise definition would be somebody who masturbates,
along with all the loose connotations, etc. that come with it.

I think you're a pretty fine dude, Phil - I was just commenting on the
"lighter" nature of the comments brought to bear regarding your remarks,
whereas I have been excoriated for my views.  But I acknowledge that my
views have been quite virulent - and my presentation of them dead
serious.  That's where I guess the line was drawn.

I do think this world is sinking into a morass of selfishness,
arrogance, greed, and all the other sh.t that goes with it.  We are a
weak and pathetic species with little hope for long-term survival.
Perhaps that's how it was meant to be all along.  But in the interest of
maintaining some interesting and rewarding acquaintances, I'll be
endeavoring to keep my more inflammatory opinions about the ongoing
invasion of my own country to myself.

<<For those of you that don't know, my recent "bigotted" posts (egged on by
some of you no less) where meant to be needling, twisted, ironic funny, rants
and do not reflect my honest opinions on cultural, religous or ethnic
backgrounds.>>

And FTR, the reason that I don't let such comments fly-by, even when they come
from someone that I know isn't truly a hateful person, is that other people can
hear such comments and think that their own hateful attitudes are being
mirrored back to them. A racist *joke* can be heard as condoning racism. When
no one contradicts that, then a racist can believe that the whole room shares
his ugly views. I speak up to make sure that those people hear at least one
dissenting voice and so that the people who are afraid to speak up do also.

<<My best friends are a diverse crowd representing many different religious and
ethnic backgrounds.>>

And none of us wants anyone to hear an off hand remark from you and have them
come to the wrong conclusion.

<<Nevertheless, Clinton is still an idiot who was concerned more about  his
sexual accomplishments than about preparing the United States for  the
challenges it was about to face.>>

I heartily disagree.

<<And yes, Bubba and his shoot first attitude is no better.>>

No, Bush is far, far worse.

<<Now what the freek is a tosser (and do't tell me it's a w.nker, what the hec
is a w.nker anyway)?>>

A tosser is a w.nker. British for *j.rk off*.

Don't you Google?
