Divershitty

The practice of requiring the admission of different, deficient or inadequately prepared people into any group to insure mediocrity so no one's feelings will be hurt because of the group's previous effectiveness.
The University's admission policies favor divershitty over achievement in order to make some of the virtue signaling Board of Trustees feel all warm and fuzzy over their smug tolerance of lesser beings.

Diversity

This is the latest empty buzzword popular with lefties and feminists. It means lets get rid of the white guys first. Then we will get rid of the colored ones. We will replace them all with white women and, if any openings are left, with a few colored ones.

diversity

An old, old wooden ship that was used during the civil war era to deliver large supplies of puréed walnuts from the South to the North. The walnuts were used as a replacement for toilet paper, due to the wartime shortage. Despite the volitile relationship between the two countries at the time, the North figured that it was more important to have a clean ass than to place an embargo on the South's nut shipments. The South figured,"Hell, we need the money".
There have been complaints from the authorities about a lack of diversity in the News Room.

pros from dover

An American slang term for outside consultants who are brought into a business to troubleshoot and solve problems. The term comes from the 1968 book M*A*S*H by Richard Hooker. In the book, the character Hawkeye is described as using the guise of being the pro from Dover to obtain free entrance to golf courses:

"Hawkeye would walk confidently into a pro shop, smile, comment upon the nice condition of the course, explain that he was just passing through and that he was Joe, Dave or Jack Somebody, the pro from Dover. This resulted, about eight times out of ten, in an invitation to play for free. If forced into conversation, he became the pro from Dover, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, New Jersey, England, Ohio, Delaware, Tennessee, or Dover-Foxcroft, Maine, whichever seemed safest."

Later on in the book, when Hawkeye and fellow surgeon Trapper are called from Korea to Tokyo to perform surgery on a congressman's son, the following exchange takes place:

"'All right,' Trapper said. 'Somebody trot out the latest pictures of this kid with the shell fragment in his chest.'
No one moved.
'Snap it up!' yelled Hawkeye. 'We're the pros from Dover, and the last pictures we saw must be forty-eight hours old by now.'"

This latter exchange is repeated in the 1970 movie, but the term pros from Dover is not explained in the script. People who had seen the movie, but not read the book, started using the phrase to mean outside experts/consultants without understanding that Hawkeye was using the term facetiously, referring to an old con he used to run.
"Look, mother, I want to go to work in one hour. We are the Pros from Dover and we figure to crack this kid's chest and get out to golf course before it gets dark. So you go find the gas-passer and you have him pre-medicate this patient. Then bring me the latest pictures on him. The ones we saw must be 48 hours old by now. Then call the kitchen and have them rustle us up some lunch. Ham and eggs will all right. Steak would be even better. And then give me at least ONE nurse who knows how to work in close without getting her tits in my way."

Dover, Florida

Dover, Florida is a small Hispanic community off of East Tampa and if you’re from around the area, it’s mostly popular for its gang “Dover Locos” the East side gang dominated by one major family but are not the only East gang in the area and you’ll find the neighborhoods littered with gang graffiti nothing but Sur 13 crossed out and “F scrap” “412” writing almost every fence or stop signed is tagged over the rivalry but in present day is a ghost town. There’s literally no other reason to move here unless you’re looking for construction work or the strawberry fields. Only interesting thing is the horse racing and quinces at a ranch but always be ready for a fight or shooting to break out. I like to call it “little Mexico” because the Mexican stores, Mexican gangs, and mainly Mexican family’s that live in dover, fl.
