BTW, several of those apply to me, including "loud mouth women".

I don't personally know Sport, so I'm not sure what he wears over his nut. Just for fun, I'm saying it's a jockstrap, but if I've offended you, Sport, please just correct me.

And it's not nuts' because...well, Sport wouldn't want me to say it but he's been so brave...one was bitten off by a squirrel.

If the "effeminate men" belong to an abortionist, who belongs to a "P.K." who belongs to ...

You have trouble at the end though. After the "High Fullutent Sophisticated Swine" that belongs to the the liberal. At that point you have a sport, that owns a nut, that has possession of a "Repent and Believe in Jesus."

This is harder to reconcile than that "If you seek Amy" song, which was at least grammatical to Yoda-level.
