A dictionary/glossary/lexicon as sort of a cosmic, meeting of the minds, collaboration of the likes of Dan Webster, Sam Johnson, Ambrose Bierce, Hunter S. Thompson, Wm. F. Buckley, Grouch Marx, W. C. Fields and many more... even though its editors are obscure unknowns with dreadfully dangerous senses of humor.

Rebulling

Image licensed under Creative Commons by Birdfreak.com


Rebulling: (1) The portmanteau of RePower (as in "RePower America" - not that we have anything against them or their cause...) and Frankfurt's book/essay: On B*llsh*it. Example: You know, one of the commercials with the old cracker bemoaning how "the big energy executives are always whining about how expensive it will be to find new forms of energy" (or some such wording, you get the point, the message is the same). Huh? Excuse me? Not that we have anything against your position, sir, just which of these whining big energy executives are you referring to?". And just who the h*ll do you think you're talking to, sir? Not that we have any objections to the development and distribution of green forms of energy for this world, but just who the h*ll are you referring to? Sounds like a lot of rebulling. Don't get us wrong, sir, we're on your side, but your vacuous arguments do little to aid the cause. Please, do us all a favor and retreat from your ridiculous position. (2) The advancement of a specious or otherwise illogical argument to support an otherwise testable but politically contentious (and fallacious?) argument or viewpoint.
