An even wimpier version of “being a pussy.” The -ie is a demotion from the -y.

What about global warming?! Give it a day or two and all that snow will be melted, if it hasn’t already.

See, this is what I mean. President Grover Cleveland, when states asked for aid for farmers, told them to pound sand and make do on their own. And Cleveland was a DEMOCRAT.

The premise that states have to come to Washington with hat in their hand when disasters strike, and ask for help is utterly ridiculous.

That’s why you pay all those taxes in Tax-a-chussets. The Boston Mayor and the surrounding counties have otherwise unemployable relatives on the payroll to do just that. They can keep shoveling, melting and hauling the snow until July or August if necessary .... hell, you are going to have to pay Daryl and his fellow Daryls anyway.
