Poll question: Am I the only one who never heard of "teabagging" a week ago?
I could have gone the rest of my life not knowing what that meant.

And gawd, freepers are stupid.

9. It's actually quite a good movie
I recommend it. It's not THAT graphic (the teabagging scene is done with guys in their underwear on a bar counter).

10. Had no idea, and I saw the movie several times - must have had the
good parts cut for TV.
Mary Kay Place was great in it.

12. I had to google it ... Oh, and now I also know what "salad tossing" is.
I mean, I get the visual of "tea bagging" as it relates to the act. But "salad tossing" -- don't get the visual (nor do I think I want to).

13. If you lived in Philly and woke up to one of the areas top rated radio station...
Edited on Thu Apr-16-09 10:41 AM by LynneSin
you would have known the full description as read from Wikipedia.

They made a mockery of the protesters because they were 'teabaggers'. Didn't help that Anderson Cooper made that comment "It's tough to talk while teabagging". They played that phrase about 20 times in about 2 hours.

This was not AM talk radio. This was 102.9 WMGK, a highly rated classic rock station that is hosted by legendary Philadelphia DJ John DeBella. If you didn't know what teabagging was or what the big deal was about it - you did after this morning. The fact that DeBella was mocking it probably turned alot of people off from these protesters.

All it would have taken was a 5second google search to see if Teabag would be a good name. What dumbassses

17. Gawd, freepers are such dumbshits.
The radio music station reminds me of one that happened here years ago.

They played, "Don't Worry, Be Happy" about 50 times one day. Boy were people pissed!

:rofl:

18. I knew what 'tea-bagging' was
But I had to Google salad-tossing...

Okay, I can see how 'tea-bagging' got its name, but salad-tossing? The derivation of that one's just plain weird!

41. Good choice
My response to 'salad tossing' was 'Ewwwwww!', and I'm ordinarily pretty mellow when it comes to sexual practices. Thirty years as a Women's Health practitioner tends to give one a high shock threshold.

42. I'd rather remain stupid and naive. I don't need to know everything.
Most of which never pertains to me.

I've been overly entertained at the ladies bar by one certain person. She needs gender reassignment. And nothing wrong with that. I just don't want to see her toys. Nope!

Sounds like a personal problem. I have no idea what post or thread you are talking about. I don't know you, either.

Don't draw me into this crap.

Bob Odenkirk played a retired porn star who explained it.

34. I asked what "teabagging" meant in an OP. I erased it upon first response.
I thought it was a new freeper word.

Oops! :blush:

36. Not only did I not know what "teabagging" meant,
but now that I found out it's meaning, I wish I never was curious enough to find out.

40. I knew what it was
but, it had absolutely no appeal to me. I would have a vision of the teabagger moving one way and the teabaggee moving another and suddenly "something" is bitten by accident.

46. My first encounter with teabagging
I was visiting my sister in Chicago and we and her gay friends went out to male strip club. My sister and I were the only women in the place, it was so fun! Anyway...one of the performers was kind enough to give me a really close up look at his package, to the point where he bounced it off my face. My party all laughed..."Ooooooh you got teabagged!" So yeah that's how I learnt it :)
