Let's popularize a new word. "Palin". It's a synonym for something incredibly stupid.
As in, "That's soooooo Palin."

Or, "Your idea is just completely Palin."

Or, "Why are you behaving so Palin?"

Let's make that idiotic bimbo immortal, but in the exact opposite way she would wish...

1. Let's not. You may remember that there are others with that
last name. Michael Palin comes to mind. I think almost all of us appreciate his humor and intelligence.

Some ideas deserve a little more thought before being posted, I think.

Unrecced for lack of thought...

9. The right wing nut jobs are making a hash of Monty Pythoners.


Even the Gumbys are brighter than some of the RWNJs.
(BTW, the caption on the photo is not my idea. I do not wish to offend any gamers)

12. When will we see a human smuggler named John Cleese involved in a high speed chase
over state lines, a Terry Gilliam caught stock piling an arsenal of guns and fertilizer or a Graham Chapman wailing against gay marriage and box turtles? Geez. Is there a brutal southwestern sheriff named Erik Idle? :rofl:

7. I think "mental homunculus" already pretty well covers it.
Besides, "Dubya" already has the spot you're proposing "Palin" should take.

11. won't work
Expressions go viral on their own. If you have have to ask people to "popularlize" a phrase it never will become part of the culture. Come up with something catchy and it will take off. "Don't taze me bro."
