A definitive definition of malarkey
lowell sun ^ | 12/10 | peter lucas

I spent the weekend searching for the meaning of malarkey.

One guy I talked to said he thought malarkey was something he ordered at a Greek restaurant. Another said it was Hungarian cabbage soup. A young millennial I interviewed said it was an exotic bird.

In my wanderings I talked to another young man who said he believed that malarkey was code for strong strain of Bolivian marijuana. His buddy said it was a county in Ireland.

Malarkey is a sanitized word for what we call Bullsh*t!

Lowell Massachusetts, where the Lowell Sun is published, is similar to South Bend Indiana in terms of population and overall importance. Would anyone seriously consider the mayor of Lowell Massachusetts to be qualified for national office?

Of course not.

And the same is true for Pete Buttigieg, the mayor of South Bend Indiana. His only qualification is being the LGBT diversity hire candidate.

Have you noticed that “malarkey” always comes in bunches? Occasionally it comes in loads, but most often it’s in a bunch. I’ve observed that malarkey never comes in clusters, batches, masses, swarms, chunks, oodles, or shebangs.

My favorite group of animals is a “squadron of pelicans.” It would be nice if malarkey came in “squadrons” instead of bunches. I’m hopeful that next time Biden will say “that’s a squadron of malarkey.”

I like a “murder of crows” a lot, too. Maybe even more than a “squadron of pelicans.”

“A murder of malarkey” — has a nice ring to it! Especially so with anything remotely tied to the Clintons.

The problem is that malarkey are plural. You can have no malarkey, or a bunch of malarkey, but never a single malarkey, and that’s no malarkey.

Sounds a lot like deer. “Look! Look at that deer!” Are you looking at one or many deer? Oh deer.
