"Dad, what's a Schlong?

?1450924914

My grandmother, were she alive, would have had a choice phrase for such a vulgarian: Shemen zich in dein veiten haldz. Literally, this translates as “you should be ashamed in your far neck,” but that doesn’t quite convey the deep contempt the speaker has for the schmuck who committed such a shandeh un a charpeh (shame and disgrace). Alternatively, my bubbe might have opted to give Trump some classic and colorful Yiddish advice: “Gai kaken oifen yam” — go defecate in the ocean.

Oh my! Every conservative nitwit rushed out in front of a camera to talk about how difficult it was going to be to explain to the lil chilluns that women had these organs on their chests that had nipples, and it was simply the end of civilization as we know it.

The front-running candidate for a major political party incorrectly uses a sexist vulgarity and those same conservative nitwits are now scrambling to excuse or explain away Trump's language, and nary a peep about how they plan to explain to their little darlings at home what does it mean, "schlong," Mommy?

I guess this is just normal household talk in the homes of conservatives? No explanation necessary for their children, because they hear mom and dad say schlong all the time?

I tried once. (I was surfing at a reef far from the shore.)

There are remote parts of the world where such things still existed in the late 1990's.

Septic systems apparently don't do real well in perma-frost. The ocean on the otherhand, accepts all we care to dump in it.

of course they like Trump because screaming without any grounding or consistency is all that they do
