like the people that say libtards or magats, we get it. you don’t wike the bad peeepow. you godda caw dem bawd names so you can feew gewd.

this is just a more fucking racist version of the stupidest childish playground tacitics of name calling that both sides of the isles’ idiots can’t help but say.

that being said, gravy seals and meal team 6 are great and hilarious. it’s just stupid shit like democRAT. oh ho ho! it’s got rat in it? MY FUCKING FIVE YEAR-OLD NIECE COMES UP WITH MORE CREATIVE INSULTS.

I just don't know why he doesn't just come out and say it. Who does he think he's fooling?

It's about pissing us off and making us waste time explaining how they're being shitty

you leave Tigger alone!!

Several others are one off. (Not too defend them, but to make a stupid point about words.)

Bob Igger (his last name. Do not just Google his last name at work.) Digger Figger (actual word) Gigger (again an actual word)

Anyway, this is boring.

Edit: it has come to my attention that done people are actually doing the "rhymes with" thing with cruel intent. (Not here, but elsewhere.) Just thought I would, sadly, point that out. Leaving this because it doesn't matter anyway.

[-] HWK_290@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

You mean Bob Iger? The CEO of Disney and curator of Ron DeSantis's nightmares?

[-] MNByChoice@midwest.social 1 points 1 year ago

Oh! I misspelled his name. Nuts. Sorry Bob.

I don't live where they are, so I don't often have occasion to, but I get nervous talking about chiggers.
