The Rauzi realm’s dietary and voting decisions make plain that nuts abound in our nation today — and all of America is descending into anaphylactic shock.
It’s funny that liberals try to advance the caricature of the stuffed-shirt conservative. It’s projection, actually, because “killjoy” could be synonymous with “progressive.” From demonizing toy guns to banning dodgeball and sweets to stigmatizing innocent jokes as “racist” to, generally, ensconcing everyone in bubble wrap, never was a rainbow born the libs couldn’t turn gray (except, you know, for the rainbow cause they’re obsessed with). A good example of this is a recent Lost Angeles Times article titled “How vegetarians, gluten-frees, grain-frees and other L.A. food tribes ruined my BBQ tradition” (a.k.a. “How Being around Liberals Really Stinks”).
It was written by one Robin Rauzi, who informs, “Anyone who knew my wife and me knew that on Friday night we would be on the patio, grill fired up.” Therein lies the first indication of the problem: Rauzi doesn’t have a wife.
I haven’t heard the word “bushwa” in almost 5 years!
That’s 50 years!
My old man used to use it all the time, back in the 70s/80s. He was raised in south western New York state in the 30s/40s and I guess it was common there at that time. He’s the only person I’ve ever heard actually use it though.
TL;DR version: Diversity is death.
My mother used to say it. She was from New Jersey. She grew up during the 30s.
Id just gibe em flower burgers. They dont like, peace man.
I recently got together with an old friend that I'd not seen in years. They came for the weekend. To be polite, I asked about food allergies, etc. Mostly, I was concerned about his wife, I'd never met her.
Nada, and we had a great visit, ate really well off the grill all weekend. But, at (ahem) our age, it's a consideration. There are a few things that I can't eat because of this medication or that one, or that I love to eat but don't necessarily love me anymore. :-)
Would I make a big deal of it? Of course not. But then again, I'm not a liberal.
BTW, you know how to tell if someone is a vegan? They'll tell you.
I looked up the origin because it was so unique to my dad and apparently it was hot in the depression. Supposedly a corruption of “bourgoisie” (early 20th century red menace talk) mingled with a little “bullsh-—” and taking on the meaning of the latter.
The article by Selwyn Duke is hilarious: how liberal “food tribes” turned one libbie’s barbecue into a diversity dictatorship “bolsheque”.
