I checked three dictionaries. All agree with the Post’s definition.

An adulteress wife is far from “cheated on him”. It’s usually used for a man that knows and condons his wife’s adultery usually by being present.

Chans: Various internet message boards that allow the board to be split into sub-boards (channels, hence “4-chan” or “8-chan”) dedicated to particular topics. They have a lot more than just four or eight (though the eight is actually supposed to stand for the infinity symbol turned sideways) different channels, though. For a long time, these were the most unregulated parts of the internet, and not only catered to fans of mainstream things like sports teams, but also to the most obscure and deviant types as well (including fetishes, child porn, and other vile and disgusting subjects). It is the Mos Eisley spaceport of the World Wide Web (Obiwan Kenobi: “You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villiany...”).

Top kek: The massively multiplayer online video game World of Warcraft is separated into two competing factions. In global chat, in order to enforce separation of the factions, anything typed by the opposing faction to yours will get translated into gibberish (simulating a different language), usually by means of simple letter replacement (something like the “a” is changed to “f”, the “b” to an “m”, etc.). Players quickly noticed that the internet slang “LOL,” meaning “Laugh out-loud” was changed via replacement to KEK. So it showed your geek credentials to respond to posts with “kek” instead of “lol,” with “top” simply meaning an extreme amount of laughter.

Thank you so much. As I said, there is a big world out there, and many giant parts of it are unmapped wilderness to me.

Not for family-friendly reading.

Continuing with my search of Google Images taggged with this term, we find this one of Gov. Huckabee:

Yep, that’s how Merriam Webster, Oxford and Cambridge define it. Not sure why anyone would think the Post got it wrong.

In post #27 above Fledermaus links to the urban dictionary. Because the urban dictionary is in the form of an unedited blog where people "up vote" the top definition posters their tend to try to out do each other in crudeness. Thus the top one or two are quite explicit.

If I were to boil it down: the modern definition has been extended to include men who take perverse pleasure in knowing that, hearing, or seeing - other men have sex with their wives. Some big east coast mag just did an article on this. I guess given that many libs are insane, it makes sense that this would be a fun perversion for them.

I often wonder if Lindsey Graham enjoys being humiliated repeatedly and coming off like a door mat to Libtards. So even if one extends the definition to include the urban-slang version, it's still pretty accurate.

The link Fledermaus posted, is, as he warned, kinda gross. As in - Wish I could unread it - level gross.

Man on the street thinks 40% of the adult population is gay, for example.

********************************************************************

A lot of “men on the street” (women too) have no concept of what 40% even means. Is that 4 out of a hundred or 4 out of a thousand?

The meme is a new litmus test, and it is here to stay. You probably are one. Take this quiz:

You read it wrong. Trump is mentioned as contrary to the cuckservative majority of GOP leaders.

Apparently, I did read it wrong.

Sorry, but I view Conservatism more simply. You are or you aren't. Like being pregnant, there is no 'little bit' nor graduated measure.

For over a decade, I have recognized that most of those in the GOP are not.

Labels like so/neo/paleo/crunchy and now 'cuck', only serve to muddy the water and allow people who are not Conservative to wear the mantle of conservatism when convenient.

I had to go back and reread the article. You are right, thanks.

Nonsense, politics is appropriately many-faceted, and this new meme serves a very important purpose. Most on FR are cuckservatives, BTW.
