What does this mean?
From Urban Dictionary: A girl who is overweight, if not obese, with a
short, round build. She rounds out in the belly with small breast, if
any at all, formed from excess body fat, packed into too-small a
wardrobe. This makes her look like the packaged Butterball turkeys so
many of us enjoy over the holidays. Butterball turkeys can often be
found basted in their own cheap liquor. That Butterball turkey stole
my shirt and stretched it! Now it smells like $5 wine!

A couple of days ago I posted a list of the names people call me. I'd
add "butterball" to the list, but I don't know what to make of it.
What message are you trying to send me?

Nobody's excusing the Boomers of anything. What I'm angry about is
that you Gen-Xers are trying to excuse the Gen-Xers of everything. We
Boomers like to see people punished when crimes are committed. But
Gen-Xer banksters caused millions of evictions and bankruptcies, and
all that Obama said was, "Oh, you poor Gen-Xer banksters are just
victims. Just donate a few billion dollars of your illegally gotten
money to my campaign, and we'll just forget the whole thing, and you
can go on and defraud other people, provided that you keep donating to
my campaign." Which is what they did in the libor, forex and other
Gen-X schemes. So call me whatever names you want, but I think that a
lot of these banksters should be in jail.
1. |Butter balls. http://allrecipes.com/recipe/10219/nut-butter-balls/ : a term of "mushy sentimentality". A rough translation of being unreasonably idealistic despite the fact that reality can indeed, bite.
2. Uh, banksters, yes, I agree. All banksters, regardless of generation, should not have been bailed out. I agree things should have been handled like the S&L crisis, FWIW. So, I suppose we agree that banksters belong in Pelican Bay prison, to be the bitches of bubba. OK?
