War on Geometry! According to certain Right Wingnuts, the proposed design for the Flight 93 memorial is inappropriate. Why? Because it's in the shape of a crescent, of course, and everyone knows that crescent = Islam = OMGTERRORIST!!!!111 Someone points out that if this is the case, then they should ban the South Carolina flag, not to mention those subversive As an added bonus, FW gets a nod in the Making Light post on this issue: Luthe: Leave it to the conservatives to wank about the best piece of memorial architecture to come out of 9/11 so far. Uh ... does that mean the same thing in the US that it does in the UK? Because I have to say that it's a strange sentence if it does... Paul, the world of online fandom has adopted the word 'wank' to mean the act of complaining endlessly and stupidly about things that are, on the whole, not worth the effort. The idea being that such complaints are merely the Internet form of masturbation, done for the whole 'Net to see. For examples, see Fandom Wank, the largest and most dedicated of the sites devoted to mocking those who wank (online, at least). Post a comment in response: |
