| hahaha....
so, I'm reading this topic, saying to myself "What the heck is he
talking about?! No one talks about soap operas, or uses soap opera
lingo in this file! And what *is* soap opera lingo, anyway?!"
Sometimes, I'm not even the sharpest *spoon* in the drawer!

I'm offended by the way in which you refered to the Queen, and I don't
know what you meant by it.

| femniac, feminazi - "endearments" (no insults permitted) used to refer
to feminists;
parking-lot crowd, pahking lotters - descriptive term for individuals
who believe the solution to third world nations' defiance of US
administration desires is to turn those nations into parking lots, ie,
via nuclear war.
The dialect is actually rich and useful to painting vivid word
pictures; though practitioners seldom seem to actually communicate
ideas; often preferring the enragement of the holders of opposing
viewpoints as a means to hide their lack of support for their own
positions. Sadly a glossary such as this will do little to communicate
the true nature of this dialectical style.
