“Not-PC” doesn’t automatically mean “funny”, though. It takes some actual cleverness and effort. I recommend the “stereotype” cutaway gags on _Family Guy_ as an example of stereotype humour worth laughing at.

This rather amateur effort, though… meh. I don’t know or care enough about Nicki Minaj to get the joke of her inclusion, I admit, and the rest of the 'toon is far too lame and pointlessly confusing to be offensive.

[Here’s](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EdIKIf9mHk0&list=PLOmdoKois7_FK-ySGwHBkltzB11snW7KQ) an amusing and educational cultural stereotype-ish set of vids.

No, it’s one of those that’s been around for at least 20 years.

I wouldn’t go that far. Sometimes, I expect, it’s an attempt to make the speaker feel superior by seeing if he or she can get someone else angry.

It’s one of the more pathetic subsets of trolling.

FAFFT obviously stands for something. Seriously, how does someone invent such a strange word??

There’s more to this. I didn’t wanna look straight out of the tinfoil crowd right away, so I feigned amusement with it.

Nicki Minaj is Illuminati.

So? For just fucking once, we can KEEP this one?

My Evil Little Girls only abandoned a pathetic, squeaking mouse at my feet after they had licked every scrap of hair off him. I expect no less from the SDMB.

The most recent thing I’d heard and remembered about Nicki Minaj was from [this June episode of the Joe Rogan podcast](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kdDo1A7EsyM) in which he interviews Sam Harris. They spent much of the hour talking about then-candidate Trump, with Harris making a brief Minaj reference starting at [32:20](https://youtu.be/kdDo1A7EsyM?t=32m20s).

I recommend the entire interview, for people who like coherent social commentary.

Fafft has 5 letters, just like Nicki. And Minaj.

And it’s onomatopoeia for a brief, flaccid fart, just like your OP is worth.

Now, at long last, we know what Le Pétomane would have posted.

> Joseph Pujol (June 1, 1857 – August 8, 1945), better known by his stage name Le Pétomane (/ləˈpɛtəmeɪn/, French pronunciation: ​\[ləpetɔman\]), was a French flatulist (professional farter) and entertainer. He was famous for his remarkable control of the abdominal muscles, which enabled him to seemingly fart at will. His stage name combines the French verb péter, "to fart" with the -mane, "-maniac" suffix, which translates to "fartomaniac". The profession is referred to as "flatulist", "farte It wa...

Did you know that the correct term for a professional farter is a “flatulist”? Learn something every day!

Shouldn’t this thread be put out of its misery, ie locked, now that the OP has been banned? Or was the guy of such exceptional stupidity that he deserves more barbs to be thrown his way even though he’s incapable of response? Not that he hasn’t been incapable of sane response since the get-go.

It was locked late this morning but somehow got unlocked.
