DUmmy PCIntern, the medical office building janitorial employee who leads a fantasy life at the DUmp, comes up with an enigma wrapped in a riddle. He actually makes up a bouncy about being told a bouncy. See if you can follow the bouncing ball:

Vaguely disturbing day...
So I have a couple teabaggers in the practice...one-on-one not bad sorts as you would expect, but my god, what effluvia emanates from their mouths...it's like someone put in the cassette tape and hit 'Play'...
Anyway, one of them arrived today, breathless, with a story (I'll paraphrase): Teabagger goes to the bank and has a sit-down with one of the personnel, an African-American(!) no less, and at the end of the transaction, the teabagger says to the bank employee, "Merry Christmas." At which point the bank employee says, "Thank you. You wouldn't believe what happened to me earlier today. I said "Merry Christmas" to a customer and he started shouting at me that he was an atheist and how dare I impose my religion on him and..." I'll leave out the rest - I'm sure you've heard it.
So I smiled and did my work - I don't comment much on this stuff either way anymore, there's no percentage in it...on the way out the teabagger repeated the story VERBATIM no fewer than three times to each staff member who was unfortunate enough to get in the way.
I told them that I didn't believe a word of it, and that it was probably the assignment for the day from GlennBeckCentral or similar "authority".

1. I certainly hope the story is BS...
I find this whole ridiculous controversy on religious versus secular observance of December Holidays to be one big irritation. I think you are probably right about it being a RW "war on Christmas" meme. That said, I've certainly seen that level of militancy among a minority of atheists on DU. While I am agnostic myself, I find it hard not to enter into the fray to defend whichever side is being demonized. Live and let live....
"December Holidays"?

6. I am very open about my liberal religious beliefs.
I have met some Agnostics but not any Atheists. Perhaps the Teabaggers don't even know an Atheist from an Agnostic.
I'm don't believe it's necessary to draw a distinction. They are just two flavors of heathen, doomed to spend eternity shoulder-to-shoulder.

7. I don't believe the story either. It's possible, of course, just not likely.
Which story, DUmmy Laelth? We're dealing with a bouncy inside a bouncy here, and it's making me a little dizzy.

9. The "atheist" in the story must have been a Christian trying to make atheists look bad.
Now that right there, DUmmy frogmarch, is one of the funniest lines I have ever read!

11. Sounds like bull shit to me ...Christains are the ones who fight the "Christmas War" never encountered an atheist that was as obnoxious as a fundie.
The only people democrats hate more than Christians are the Joos.

Want a link to a thread here recently?

Is it me, or does this almost sound like a reverse bouncy making fun of the other DUmmie stories?

What janitor* says "effluvia"? :mental:
I guess that Womyns Studies PhD will get you an entry level position as a professional cleaner.
*I have nothing against janitors, BTW. I was one part time back in my late teens for about 6 months.

One who has a thesaurus.

Teabagger goes to the bank and has a sit-down with one of the personnel, an African-American
That right there is a red flag. No self respecting teabagger would sit down with an African-American. Since we hate blacks so much. :whatever:
For you lurking DUmmies that was sarcasm.

I guess they have a better quality of janitor in that building. :fuelfire: :fuelfire:

It's more likely they a "Word of the Day" calendar than a thesaurus .

If he was really in the Medical Field he would've used words like "emesis" or "feces" and not used the word "effluvia". :-)

They almost ALWAYS start with "So...."

Am I confusing these people, is PCIntern the 1 who works in the Dentist's office? or is a Dentist?

You'll have to ask franksolich. It could be either one.

Oh really? You never heard of Ruth? The president and major pain in the ass of the Athiest front that started all this shit?
Went before the Supreme Court, asshole! Made it so our children couldn't pray in school if even if they wanted to!
Can't remember her last name. She ended up gettin' what she deserved. Some criminal kidnapped her, her son, and the son's daughter, stole like $600,000 from them and buried them somewhere in Texas!
She was the most foul mouthed 'ol twat I had ever heard! Even made Phil Donahue a coupla times!
I'm absolutely sure you know who I am talkin' about!
Selective memory, anyone?

Do ya mean Madalyn Murray O'Hair ?

Yeah, that one can read.
Sort of. :lmao:

The PCIntern primitive alleges to be a long-established D.D.S. in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
I've watched the PCIntern primitive ever since we were at our old home, because it intrigued me that someone ostensibly a dentist would have so much time to hang around Skins's island.
When a primitive alleges to be some sort of professional on Skins's island, franksolich's lie-detecting radar goes off, and he watches closely, especially the vocabulary and jargon used.
By their vocabulary thy shall know them, that sort of thing.
As Ballygrl, equally observant, pointed out earlier in this thread, the PCIntern primitive, if a dentist, would've used a term other than "effluvia," which only primitives alleging themselves to be literary would use.
There always has been a distinct lack of professional dental jargon in the PCIntern primitive.
I used to think then, that the PCIntern primitive was a poseur, possibly a dental office telephone receptionist or even the cleaning lady who comes in after a dental office has been closed.
But I no longer speculate even that; it looks to me as if the PCIntern primitive is an utter fabrication.

I suspect its just another pathetic guy or gal trying to find acceptance through the persona he/she has created on the internet. DU seems to attract that type.

She was the one with the son who was a Protestant minister, IIRC.
H5 for getting it before I could. But, seeing that you're laid up, I'll H5 you gently. O-)

Thanks frank, I thought that was him. I worked in the medical field for 20 years and people who work in the field use medical jargon so much that they tend to use it in real life too, not to sound uppity, but because they use it so much on a daily basis that it's hard to break out of it.

Hey, Coach . . . I was just thinking of something. Couldn't "effluvia" also mean "flatulence?" :whistling:

Hell, I always thought it was some high-falutin' technical term for "queef." :-)
