Exactly, Jimmah.

And Sal— given that you also thought the word had to apply to a sex act between a man and a woman, I think it’s fair to say that you genuinely don’t know what you’re talking about in this instance, from first to last.

1. It refers to a sex act, and did for years
2. The tea partiers NAMED themselves and their protests after it, unwittingly.
3. People laughed at them.

That’s it. It’s silly to be arguing over this anyway.

I was quoting the Urban Dictionary. Although I have never teabagged other males (and can’t remember doing it with females), I am perfectly aware that male genitals can be dropped into the mouths of people of either sex.

But the kinds of socons who are attracted to such things would be blissfully oblivious of that meaning.

I don’t think that it is overly be a mature to ridicule some folks for being initially unaware that a particular term also was the name for a specific and somewhat exotic sexual practice.

And btw: your other link that went to that sign? I addressed it before by mentioning that it was undated. There was another sign beside it, referring to ACORN. Both of these were freeper signs, but there is nothing to indicate that they were from early April, rather than recently.
