STEATOPHYGIA [stee uh toh PYE jee uh]
noun
AStear, Greek for "fat, grease," gave rise to the prefix steato-, while pyge is Greek for "buttox, rump." Together, this prefix and noun gave us steatophygia for fatty accumulation on the buttocks, and steatophygic fat buttocked, the condition of possessing a very fat rump. Also synonyous with callipygian, callipygous.
And well it should be, but T Rex is the meanest of all.
GREAT find. Must watch, again and again.
Erudition comes easy for some.
Sometimes a fat ass is just a fat ass.
Ditto #44.
Cranial steatopygia is not a disease. It is a natural growth from ingesting a constant diet of lies.
Hot is as hot does.
I am gonna let that one pass, with apologies.
This little piggy went to market....
Pygia in Greek means to swallow or gulp. Also to drown.
So the word Steatopygia should mean to accumulate excessive fat.
“She came into are weight loss clinic displaying trunkel obesity and steatopygia of her hips and thighs.”

She probably would be pretty good looking if she wasn’t so fat. She has a cute face. She just needs to lose about 300 lbs.
As it does, mt FRiend. As it does.
This is known in street parlance as a “Butter Face”
If Hillary has won, she would have admitted “refugees” from Khoisan tribes with steatopygia, as well as central African pygmies.

Congolese refugees from the wars in that country are already being admitted! These people have only lived in jungle huts and have to be taught to lock their doors when they go out!!
If they are admitted to the US, it is THEY who will be taken advantage of—just the opposite of muslim jihadis and illegals who commit rape and murder!!!!
STOP the nonsense! Not everyone belongs in the USA!!!!
I have known a few of these remote village refugees. They have a communal ethic that eschews private property and personal space. The ones I knew were extremely promiscuous.
LOL.
I was going to post an image...
Nah.
We don’t daily see
Hil’s steatopygia.
Thank the Lord Trump won!
I tried to use this word in a haiku last night, and failed.
It involved ghetto women, fighting, and weaves getting yanked.
So I commend you on your victory. Don’t let the adulation go to your butt!
These poets around here take extreme license with style.
Nice!!
