[Droopy]

2. Where did the "This is HUGH!!11!!1!" thing originate?

[blitzen]

3. not sure....perhaps as a spin-off from "moran"

and of course we all know where that originated

[Splatter Phoenix]

4. And if you DON'T know...

You're a moran.









Who didn't see that coming? >___> <____<

[Heidi]

7. I think it was an over-zealous misspelling on "that other website."

You know, the one that claims we're all the spawn of Satan. :shrug:

[JimmyJazz]

17. I dunno, but I suspect it is the same place as

"All your (fill in blank) are belong to us!"

:o

[ghostsofgiants]

19. Zero Wing originated HUGH?

That game's un-fucking-stoppable!

[JimmyJazz]

11. Damn, can they spell *anything* right?

[AntiCoup2K4]

12. Yes, two words. "God" and "Bush"

Unfortunately, they think these two words mean the same thing :scared:

[NMMNG]

13. I know, isn't it sickening (and frightening)?

They are truly "syncophants". :rofl:

[shockra]

14. But...

They're pretty good at the self-defecating humor.

[NMMNG]

[July]

24. My brother used to use that term all the time.

I thought he invented it.

[supernova]

18. Syncophant

from Dictionary.com:

Sycophant \SIK-uh-fuhnt\, noun:
A person who seeks favor by flattering people of wealth or influence; a parasite; a toady.

The praise Oxford received as a poet may simply have issued from the mouths of sycophants hungry for patronage.
--Howard Chua-Eoan and Helen Gibson, "The Bard's Beard?" Time, February 15, 1999

Friendship with the son and daughter-in-law of an imprisoned Supreme Court justice afforded me a special pipeline into high-level Ghanaian gossip about the alarming psychological condition of the head of state, said alternately to be suffering from delusions of grandeur fed by sycophants or to be reduced to quivering agoraphobia after the attempts on his life.
--David Levering Lewis, "Ghana, 1963," The American Scholar, Winter 1999


That poster's use of the term was disingenuous, but you can't say it's not a real word.

[Canadian Socialist]

23. But he DIDN'T use the word "sycophant"

He used the (non)word "synchophant". See the difference?:hide:

must point out that algore is not a leader. He is merely a private citizen doing a good deed as we all should be doing. Thank God and all the right-thinking people of this country (including the Renquist-court) for making algore a private citizen and not a leader. If not for them, algore could not have evacuated those 100+ medical needing folks and received accolades from synchophants like you.
