And may we have the wisdom to learn from that.
“Pimped out” means something very different to people born in my generation than Senator Clinton’s.
Younger people should know what it means to older people even if they don’t personally use it the old way.
And older people should know what it means to younger people even if they don’t personally use it the new way.
And beating each other up in public over a generational language difference mainly emphasizes the age gap.
That’s not good for Hillary so we should let them run with it.
Bet Shuster regrets leaving Fox News now.
“Pimped out” — Having excessive embellishments or ornaments, particularly of the flashy kind. State your car will be in if you have added the gold trim package, curb feelers, continental kit, white wall tires, rims that are off set and stick out at least 4” from the side of the car body, lowered 4”, TV boomerange antenna, blackout tited windows, crushed velour seats, custom chain steering wheel, neon liscense plate surround, huge naked woman hood ornament, sound system that has no treble, custom metalic purple paint job, and fuzzy dice.
I don’t think “pimping out” is something different generations interpret differently. Correct me if I am wrong but the meaning is inescapable and has to do with “turning out” or turning someone into a prostitute.
It was a tasteless vile remark and the anchor deserves condemnation.
Well said, gondram.
That is true, but I don't think there's much room to argue that Schuster's comment was some generation-gap miscommunication. The discussion was on Chelsea making phone calls to line up superdelegates, and the full quote was: "Doesn’t it seem like Chelsea’s sort of being pimped out in some weird sort of way?”
In that context, I don't think there's much way to argue which sense of "pimped out" was intended. There is no way you'll convince me, or many folks, that it was meant to imply that her wardrobe is gaudy.
