douche bag
I’ve been using the term ‘douche bag’ a lot lately in my emailings to and from friends. I’ve come to realize/notice that while the various auto spell-checkers don’t seem to like my last name, they are absolutely fine with the term ‘douche bag’.
So that got me to thinking. And after enough thought, I started laughing good and hard. The thing is, somewhere out there in the infrastructure that serves our daily lives on the internet, there was, at one point, a person or persons, who was/were tasked with discerning how words and terms are supposed to be spelled, so that spell-checkers would be able to function more effectively while we emailed and wrote essays and reports and letters and all kinds of bullshit like that. And one day, somebody came across the term ‘DOUCHE BAG’ on that day’s ToDo list. I picture a very bland, possibly uptight person who may have very little in the way of social skills (a geek) being the very person to come across that particular entry and having it not even register in the (in my mind) normal Beavis & Butthead way… “Hehehehe, check it out, I got ‘douche bag’. That’s awesome!”
And now I’ve put it into the written word on a website, and it’s lost its humor. BUT, it was funnier than shit earlier today. Awww, fuck it…
