"Colbert's Balls" - I am officially submitting this

[The Doctor.]

- Into the American Lexicon.

It rolls of the tongue nicely, and the connotations are, well... 'hugh'.

Please feel free to create a simile or metaphor of your own so we can get a feel for "Colbert's Balls".

I'll get us started;

"That scientific discovery is as big as Colbert's Balls!"

"And then it struck me like Colbert's Balls."

"Colbert's Balls that was good!!!"

[Pacifist Patriot]

1. "When he told the boss to shove it, he showed us he had Colbert's balls."

I'm telling you, my mouth was hanging open during most of Colbert's speech. I couldn't believe he had the aplomb to carry it off just feet away from the folks he was lampooning. That took some brass ones!

2. I was so proud of myself for not touching the stephen 's balls threads

I feel dirty now that I touch a stephen colbert's balls thread.

23. I've made mine official--

I entered colbertian as a new word in "Urban Dictionary" www.UrbanDictionary.com

colbertian

adjective--a state of cocksure audacity, brilliantly brash and of breathtakingly behemothic gonadal proportion.

Origin-- This word was coined following Stephen Colbert's perfomance at the 2006 White House Correspondents' Dinner, April 29, 2006, where Mr. Colbert, using brilliant wit and biting satire, had the courage to prove that Emperor George Bush had no clothes and that the entire Washington press corp was asleep at the switch.

Mr. Colbert's demonstration of testicular fortitude-- his brazen display of juevos grandes-- has certainly earned him the right to his own English language adjective. COLBERTIAN

Used in a sentence:

His perfomance last night was not just stunning, one could only call it colbertian!

With colbertian vigor, we lifted the yoke of oppression and retook the great land that once was ours.

"backwash demographic"

noun - describes the lowest 1/3 of the population that still supported the criminal Bush in 2006.

[TexasLawyer]

26. Oh yeah, they take every crazy thing

you give them. FYI-- UrbanDictionary is always good for a laugh. I am sure you'll be amused.

Here's a good one:

Drinky McDumbass

1. An executive whose success is primarily due to family and/or fraternal connections rather than merit.

2. As above, but specifically referring to George W. Bush.

Turn the channel -- I'm tired of listening to Drinky McDumbass.
