This reminds me of the old joke. In a small town, there was a reunion of grads from 30 years ago.
The most successful grad was a beautiful woman, with successes in Hollywood, writing, business and politics.
At the reunion everytime the successful woman was asked about any other grad, her 3 former husbands and peers in Congress or in Hollywood, her re ply was "They are Fabulous, Darling!"
Later in private, one of her oldest friends asked why she constantly use the phrase, "They are Fabulous, Darling!"
The very successful and fellow alum replied, "I learned a long time that to be successful you can't refer to someone or their actions as Bull$***!
So I decided to call Bull$h**, Fabulous. Then, I would know what I really meant when I said, "They are Fabulous, Darling!". I would know and would not be in trouble for what I said.
Now you all know what the word Fabulous means when used in this way by the Absolutely Fabulous Whoreacle spokes clymer!
