Holy Crap. CNN has never made me laugh so hard.

I’m a fifty-two-year-old woman, and I never heard the term until I came across it on this board a year or so back. I think it is safe to say that not everyone in the country has heard or knows the slang definition.

You’re never too old to try it, sister!

Breaking news…

The town of Sanchez is still suffering from a garbage man strike. Ken Brockman reports now on the state of the town…

If it makes you feel any better, I didn’t know what “teabagging” was, until the term was used during the tea party protests and people were making fun of the protesters for using it. Not everybody’s familiar with all slang, especially not sexual slang.

I didn’t know what it meant either until I went on a road trip with a bunch of people to see a soccer game. One of the guys made a comment about “tea bagging” and a “dutch oven” and I didn’t know what either one meant.

I’ve lived such a sheltered life.

5 or 6 years ago, I saw an anchorman interveiwing the guy one won a Dewalt powertool contest for driving screws into wood.

The interveiwer asked the winner: “How long have you practiced screwing?”

All I can figure is that Dobbs had heard somewhere that it had a sexual meaning, but that he didn’t actually know what that meaning was.

Alternately I might guess that he knows, and that he’s using those comments to insult her about being a lesbian and somewhat butch-looking. (She dresses up nicely on her show but has outright stated that it’s the wardrobe department’s skill, and that she dresses ‘like a twelve-year-old boy’ normally.) Yeah, it still doesn’t make a lot of sense, but it’s a possibility I guess.

Rachel Maddow can rest her nuts on my forehead any time. I suspect she prefers snatch like the lady from You’re Pretty Cosmetics, but that just makes it hotter.
