Larry: No, he doesn't, he's just shy! You've got shy/asshole confusion, my friend.

Organized Confusion

Messy, splintered into 1000 pieces, all over the place, yet meticulously together and beautifully chaotic. A description of pivitol points in the music of the legendary band Nirvana. "Organized Confusion" is the name of the demo recorded by Kurt Cobain in December 1982 at his Aunt Mari Earl's house. Today is February 20, 2015. Kurt Cobain was born on February 20, 1967, and died by self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head on April 5, 1994. He would have been 48 years old today.
Equipped with his electric guitar, Earl's bass, an empty pink Samsonite suitcase and a set of wooden spoons, 15 year old Kurt Cobain set about laying down tracks on Earl's TEAC A-2340 recorder. He named the resulting demo Organized Confusion.

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
