This is a copy of the 2006 Lexicon (linked at the top) for Freepers to review and add their suggestions for things that should be added or removed. It would also be nice to know who to credit with the addition (if you know who the originating FReeper was for a phrase etc).

I've suggested removing WAYR as it was really only used shortly after the South Park episode aired and didn't ever gain the traction or significant use here. If I am wrong, please correct me and I'll keep it in for the final version.

Before I let everyone 'have at it', let me quickly lament my stupidity for not learning my lesson in 2006 and taking this on again: oh why did I do it?! why did I not shut up and leave things alone?!...

Alright, let's hear your suggestions (be gentle).

You forgot “DUcks” for DemocratUnderground.

While I’m the only one here that I’ve seen refer to them as the DUck’s, I saw it used on another site years ago and was told by a moderate that sometimes went to DU that they hated being called DUcks more than DUmmies.

FOB - Friend Of Bill. Related: DFOB - Dead Friend Of Bill. One that was an FOB but was Fostered and is now taking an Arkansaw Dirt Nap. Still considered an Arkancide, even if it happens aboard a crashed plane in the Balkans. Related terms - Fahmy Malak, Dixie Mafia, Mena, Inslaw, Waco, and JFK. jr.

For some of us, FOB means "Forward Operating Base." ;-)

wear our the cats? - Incohesive Zot thread with loads of spelling errors in the original post.

That remains one of my favorite threads ever.

NWO origin. Much to the dismay of the left, it did not originate with Bush ‘41, although he was responsible for repopularizing the phrase.

Suggest adding “X42” for those of us who refuse to use his name.

“Oh, the Huge Manatee!” (sometimes “Oh, the Hugh Manatee!”)

Caption to a photoshopped Hindenburg explosion photo, showing a gigantic Manatee in place of the blimp.

Occasional Variations on the Theme: A pic of Brit Hume next to the manatee (”Oh the Hume Manatee”), or pics of Hume and Sean Hannity (”Oh the Hume Hannity”).

Alright, let's hear your suggestions (be gentle).

"Hugh" and "series" actually derive from a incoherant rant posted by Barbara Streisand on her website. FReepers picked up on it to mock her.

Here are a few missing entries:

Sanity Island - home of the staunchest supporters of President Bush, used mostly in the daily "A Day In The Life of President Bush" threads.

America The Right Way - another daily thread title, representing America freed from the Clintons. Was formerly "America Held Hostage" with a daily countdown until the end of the Clinton Administration.

Barbra Streisand - euphemism for Bull S***

Jf'K - John F'ing Kerry.

NRO - National Review Online.

Added explanation of ManBearPig is in order. It's the symbol of the typical Dem practice of motivation by fear. The monster is imaginary, wholly a fabrication, just as most of the Left's "monsters".

The current Global WarmingTM craze fits in well with the ManBearPig phenomenon.
