Oh @benschwarz It's not "MY" description of teabagging. I'm merely a messenger.
@benschwarz I've been on a strange mission my entire life. Can you be more clear? Thanks! :)
@StuRobson It's afternoon here. I'm thinking fish, chips, mushy peas and a lager.
@ryanfitzus oh it was a retweet about the real meaning of teabagging
Best I can tell I'm only down 2 followers, have been blocked by one, who also reported me as spam. Not a bad morning's work! Lunch, anyone?

So #newtwitter clocks me at the same # of followers since my teabag challenge. #oldtwitter says 15,929. 1 or 1 million, "ive gotta be me"
There is a lesson in my punning. Words are far more powerful than you or I, despite the fact that it is humans who make and use words.
@johnmcc I don't think semantics are everything, but they are meaning and meaning is critical. We miss that, trouble ensues. As you can see!
@HappyTown10 if John Waters were involved? Slay me where I live! I will not eat popcorn served by Mr. Waters. I'd watch though!
@lloydi I'm happy to hear you don't need diagrams, Ian. Particularly after the story you told me about the hotel at London Wall back in May.
Semantics, after all, is meaning. And meaning is rooted in culture, perception and context. I do love words, yes I do.

You know, if we went to the John Waters interpretation of teabagging it'd be even more insulting to the homophobic right wing.
@BoltClock Not a big fan of retweets, me. Never have been. A little artistry in rewrite is a nice challenge.
