fearman's definitions
Morbid irrational fear of biotechnology and/or its products. Endlessly incited by born-again hippie fundamentalists, who would prefer us all to live like Freddie Flintstone. From Mary Shelley's Frankenstein (an endlessly quoted popular reference) and the suffix -phobia.
Morning Flower is spreading her Frankenphobia around again, telling everyone genetically modified tomatoes are bad for their children.
When are these very very trendy people going to accept that Frankenphobia is soooooo yesterday?

Get the Frankenphobiamug. Name that sounds or looks so weird that you suspect it must be something else spelled backwards. Only it isn't.
I thought Seredip Posankul sounded weird so I turned it round to see what it said and ended up with luknasoP pidereS. It's obviously just a pseudoccultonym.

Get the pseudoccultonymmug. 1. In Ireland, someone who wants the Six Counties back. Typically votes for Sinn Fein, although in the 26-county republic the centre-right majority party Fianna Fail have tried to steal the mantle.
2. In general, someone who supports democracy and dislikes monarchies, even as figureheads.
3. In the United States, someone who screams about persecution of a minority when the minority is very rich and the "persecution" comes in the form of taxation. The symbol is an elephant, presumably because the trunk hoovers up all the money. Someone who is staunchly pro-life ... at least if the life in question can afford a good lawyer. Will fight the terrorists du jour with every nigger/spic/piece of poor white trash they can scoop off the streets, but not themselves and not with their Johnny. You don't have to be an imbecile to be a Republican, but it certainly helps. Living proof of the falsity of their own cherished belief in the pseudoscience of Creationism. You'd think that in three billion seconds, never mind three billion years, God would have gotten it right.

I'm a Republican! Long live the 32-county republic!
I'm a Republican! Down with the Queen!
I'm a Republican, thank God! Where's my next trillion bucks gonna come from?

Get the Republicanmug. Actually written before the Revolution, by the Okhrana or secret police of the old Tsarist regime, round about the year 1900. Popularised by the later Communist leadership, the Nazis and others. Up there with the environmentalist "Chief Seattle" speech, the volley of excuses for the 2003 war in Iraq, Piltdown Man and the Donation of Constantine as one of the great fakes of history.
If you are suffering from insomnia, might I recommend you read this copy of the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion?

Get the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zionmug. Someone who is remarkably in love with the idea of Social Darwinist survival of the Fittest, given that their idol LOST the 1939-45 war. Someone who given half a chance would wipe out all the blacks, Jews, gays, Slavs, left-wingers and other obvious non-Nazis in the world but isn't brave enough to declare their allegiance openly, instead using coy group names like Combat-18 (the number being code for Hitler's initials), or some such. A coward.

Get the neo-nazimug. A contradiction in terms. Contrary to what some people will tell you, from Limerick to Florida, it does NOT mean a stupid ox. Derived instead from the Greek words oxy (sharp) and moros (dull).

Get the oxymoronmug. 1. Stage name of Joseph Carey Merrick (1862-90), a man afflicted with two diseases, neurofibromatosis I and Proteus Syndrome, which made his body puff out into a series of tumours that deformed his face, head and one side of his lower body. (Often incorrectly thought to have had elephantiasis). Lived as a circus freak for some time before attracting the attention of British higher society. Died in a tragic attempt to sleep flat on his back at the age of 27; his massive head dislocated his neck. The subject of a biopic in 1980, directed by David Lynch.
2. Any social pariah, anyone seen as monstrous.
