Donald Duck

Disney's best and funniest cartoon character, with one of the most famous voices in animation.

Not a "bad guy" but quick-tempered and grouchy. Often can't resist doing something a little mean-spirited--for which he always pays.

It's his mishandling of situations that makes him funny. He's not "perfect" like good guy cartoons, but is deeply flawed. And after things blow up in his face his temper is hilarious, mostly because of his grouchy "quack-quack" voice.

In one cartoon he's got a huge outdoor model railroad set up, and when he discovers the chipmunks Chip & Dale living in one of his model houses he's thrilled at first--but then can't resist teasing them by making it rain, snow, etc., on them.

wing nut

Short for "a right-wing nut". Popularized in blogs and throughout the Internet. Used to refer to those who unquestioningly accept and repeat right-wing propaganda no matter how outrageous or unbelieveable.

As opposed to normal conservatives who have relatively independent minds--those few that remain.

"Fox News could say that Invisible Martians came down and hid Iraq's Weapons Of Mass Destruction and the wing-nuts would believe it."

Cheney

To deal with being caught by telling a bald-faced lie and sticking to it no matter how unbelievable it is.

Also, to be willing to do or say anything, no matter how outrageous, rather than deviate from the lie.

Guy: "You hit my car!! You smashed right into my car!"

Cheney: "No I didn't."

Guy: "Yes you did! Look at it! You smashed right into it! The whole side is caved in."

Cheney: "No I didn't. You hit me."

Guy: "WHAT? Are you really going to try to cheney your way out of this? All my friends and three nuns saw you do it!"

Cheney: "You hit me. That's what happened. You hit me."

Guy: "I was PARKED for christ's sake -- how could I have hit you? You drove into my car while it was parked here! Look at it -- the whole side is stoved in, you asshole!"

Cheney: "No I didn't. Your car hit mine."

Guy: "WHAT??!! Are you crazy? Your car is still smashed into the side of my car, right here where it was parked. You drove over the median strip, across three lanes of traffic, and plowed into my parked car. I saw the whole thing! We all saw it -- and this nun got it on video!"

Cheney: "Why do you hate America?"

spin doctor

An operative who uses his platform to influence the perception of a person, organization, or event. Like a damage-control PR person.

Most often this is in the political context, usually conservative, with the spin doctor masquerading as a journalist or "expert in the field" to lend credibility to what's actually just a PR line cooked up by the right-wing.

After "Deep Throat" finally revealed himself as W. Mark Felt in May, 2005, a parade of spin doctors, old Nixon cronies and convicted Watergate felons appeared in the media, trying to tarnish Felt in any way they could, to distract from and lessen in the public's mind the enormity of the crimes they'd committed 30 years ago.

slorgoth

Noun; taken from the root words Slut mashed up with whore and or combined with Gothic.

In the 80’s she is credited for inventing the trash bag as outer wear.
Proper description of any overweight morbidly or approaching twenty something chick with ratted out, teased up hair-chewing gum-and usually talking loudly while smacking said gum.
Standard attire includes tattered Walmart clothing always in black but sometimes paired with denim-fishnets with her flesh bulging thru them. Shoes are either crushed out vans/chucks/airwalk sneakers sometimes bedazzled or black stuffed out Doc Martin knockoffs worn down from being drug thru 7-11’s and strip mall parking lots. Claw machine jewelry and I’ll fitting bras that let her side boob spill over smudging deodorant along its arm flap. Somewhere under that faux leather skirt are cut off support hose. Racoon level Black Is her eye liner applied in the car proves she’s a bad girl. If you make eye contact longer than ten seconds and have cool shoes a blowjob in a stairwell is assured. Good for you she plucked her mole(s).

Merna opted for the “Slorgoth” look for the Winger reunion show. Her faded black spandex dress was stretched so tight her cellulite could be seen through it.

tough crowd

This was a Rodney Dangerfield line. He may or may not have coined it, but he made it uniquely his; he'd nervously adjust his tie while saying it.

A lot of his lines got into the wider lexicon, though younger people may not know who he was. He played the crazy ultra-rich guy in "Caddyshack".

"I told a cab driver to take me where the action was, and he took me to MY house!"

(No laughter)

(Nervously adjusts tie) "Oh, tough crowd, tough crowd..."
