Rachel Maddow, you're in trouble...

From a reader:

Oh, GREAT. Thanks, Rachel.

Actual conversation with my 74 year old mother, a fightin' liberal from way back, and HUGE fan of KO, Rachel, Jon Stewart and Colbert:

Mom: "Honey, what does 'teabagging' mean?"

Me: Spews last sip of cocktail all over room.

Mom: "I was watching Rachel last night and they were talking about these asshole teabag parties and it was clear that it is a double entendre for something else."

Me: "Jesus Christ, you're 74; aren't you supposed to be getting a little fuzzy?"

6. I remember a 3 Dead Trolls in a Bag comedy skit

About keeping your parents off the internet. It gave examples on what to do interspersed with small bits of what could happen if they were allowed on, and someone's dad was wondering what would bond to latex paint so he wanted to search for latex bondage causing his son to choke on his drink.

7. That's funny...I finally got curious

enough to go to the Urban Dictionary link.

10. Heck, I didn't know it either.

That's not exactly what the nuns taught me in boarding school. I had to look it up in the Urban Dictionary.
