Code Words

Kevin and Bean over at KROQ had an interesting topic the other day. It seems like they were having some issues over a certain word that describes a gay person (hint: rhymes with the last name of the current Cowboys QB). So, they asked people to call in with some politically correct "code words" for minorities.

For example, "welders" were Asian drivers, because some Asian women have those hats which have huge visors practically covering their face; "border brothers" were Latinos. My favorite, though, was one Australian's code word for gay people: "sneaky butchers".

Why "sneaky butchers"? Because they sneak meat in the back door!

That was just so....wrong. Of course, I nearly swerved off the road laughing.

Conversely, one girl called in with "cookie monsters" for lesbians (kinda obvious), but it was just lame after "sneaky butchers".

Of course, there's always speecy-spicy sausage [gotta warn ya--it's audio].
