partial abortion

Someone who is almost idiotic enough to join the "pro-life" (anti-abortion fanatic) movement, but whose brain rescues them in the nick of time.

She's obviously a partial abortion. She spent two years in Youth Defence.

Pass the tea, please, where's the sugar?

Horrific message often found when listening to Beatles albums played backwards. "Tea" and "sugar" obviously have multiple unspeakably depraved meanings. (How do you play them backwards, by the way? I've never managed to do it!)

On hearing that bit where gnis seltaeB eht Pass the tea, please, where's the sugar?:

Ohhh NOOOOOOOOOO, it's super teatime AGAIN, hide the kiddies!!!

Supper's Ready

Epic song of love and the Apocalypse, from the hands of Genesis in 1972, in the good old days when Peter Gabriel was fronting the business. 23 minutes of sheer outrageous clashing bliss.

Near-climactic line from Supper's Ready:

And it's hey babe / your supper's waiting for you ...,

wingnutscrewballsup

Extreme form of wingnut or screwball. Used of such varied figures as Timothy Treadwell, Anne Coulter or Fred Phelps, as well as countless less famous or infamous personalities.

After decades of fad diets, an addiction to homeopathy and an unbreakable certainty that the world is jointly in the hands of the Jews, the Masons, the Rosicrucians and green lizards from zeta reticuli f, you can understand that my sister is a complete wingnutscrewballsup.

Political correctness

Mealy-mouthed attempt at getting people to avoid superficial expressions of bigotry, which ends up debasing the language without dealing with the stupidity underlying most hates and fears. Merely ends up giving the bigots one more thing to snarl at and, yes, it really can impose a tyranny of its own. Many examples of allegedly common politically correct speech are urban myths ... which we could still have done without.

Some (real and imaginary) examples of political correctness:

You're not black (in the USA), you're African-American.
(As Whoopi Goldberg once commented, and I may be paraphrasing, "My ancestors didn't come through generations of the slave trade and the Civil Rights movement to end up hyphenated.")

You're not crippled, you're differently abled.

You're not a member of the Undead, you are biometrically challenged.

You're not an android, you are an artificial person.

Dr. Poo

"Doctor" Gillian McKeith, known for her interest in the alleged medical value of feces in particular and the excremental nature of the woman and her advice in general. Much given, under the pretext of caring for people's health, to tearing them to bits on British TV for failing to live up to the the ideals of either mainstream medicine or, when that fails, those of Prince Charles. Possibly an indirect reference to the unrelated SF drama "Doctor Who".

After an hour of listening to Dr. Poo, I was willing to forgive McDonald's for everything.
