...of or related to a wonky bigot. Semantic impairment, Firl?

Hardly trivial or meaningless or insulting - unless you're a skinhead or a
bonehead. At any rate, turn around and take a look at your own bandwidth,
sprout.

Pick any line from your last two posts to this thread, if your interested. I'm
not.

Oh ya', sure, I promise to remember...uh, what was that other place you
said we were gonna' be delivered to, Firl? Somethin' about a better future,
full of hope and pride, where past wounds are healed by your vision for our
future? Great stuff, spunky! Sure to stir the indian masses trapped by their
"cultural innoculation created by the reservation culture" leading to a
"hysterical pathology" "to prevent dissolution." Not!
