That's not in the dictionary, so it must be a joke, but I'm not smart enough to get it.

For the record, I never said pedophilia and didn't mean that. Pedophiles lust after younguns BECAUSE they are younguns. Lascivious men lust after quite young women because they are hot in an adult sexual sense.

ETA to say G3, no, I was not alleging pedophilia, but whatever.

Hoist by your own petard

Meaning
Caught in your own trap.
Origin
A petard is an explosive device used to break down doors or walls. Hence - hoist on ones... Used by Shakespeare in Hamlet 'For tis the sport to have the enginer / Hoist with his owne petar'. From the French 'p‰ter' - to fart.

No wonder I can't speak French -- I don't know how to pronounce that % thing.

Exactly. Adult sexual attraction to adolescents. That is what I meant. Thank you both for the post differentiating this from pedophilia and for the explanation. As long as it does not have a component of "and not to anyone older than adolescent" because Wanker seems to be sexually attracted to chicks of most ages.

Is the concept you are really looking for "polymorphously perverse"?

Because that has other interesting implications, as well.

I can fully understand being attracted to those of other, uh, forms. See above re: salt shaking vibrator. I'm not sure how I'd be perverse (aka gross and hypocritical) about it though. Please elucidate. But I have a thing I have to go to so I won't be able to answer any questions for a while.

Cf. S. Freud.

We were all polymorphously perverse once, but those who remain so, and fixated on such a stage, have, as those in the business say, "issues".

The guy who gives you those pharmaceutical products can give you all the psychobabble on it, I'm sure.

If you can't read this site at work because your employer as a filter, consider this tip, courtesy of the other Wonkette:

[M]any filters can by bypassed via Alta Vista's translation services: http://babelfish.altavista.com/

Just use the Babelfish to translate the target site from Japanese to English. It won't find any Japanese and will leave the existing English alone, returning basically the same page.

Using the babelfish translator, this is your post in Chinese:

???????polymorphously ????, ???????, ?????????, ????????, "??" ?, ? ?????????????psychobabble ??, ??????

Edited to add:

Apparently Chinese characters don't show up. Too bad, that.

Did you get the tips in the restroom or behind the bar?

By the way, nice bracket.

She probably could, but I don't think those are my issues (Electra complex?).

Why are you being so deliberately obscure? It's sort of annoying. It'd be one thing if I were in on the wink wink, nod nod, but obviously I'm not. Perhaps these are jokes for someone else's benefit? Hm. Well, whatever makes you happy, I guess.

On another note, I saw a weensy bit of American Idol during my pedicure this evening. I found that red-headed guy kinda cute. I didn't really catch the singing part though.

Insert eyerolling smilie about right here, because I don't buy that, or to the extent that I do, I bet it was only really since wankette started getting close to hitting puberty -- i.e., after he was way too close to 40 for any kind of sanctimoniousness to be believable.

This was a consistent answer for you.

I'm not sure what happened - bad affair, bad relationship, whatever - but something turned you really, really bitter all of a sudden. It made me sad for you, because that's just . . . bad, you know?

But you've taken it out all over, and that's your own problem. Wonk isn't like what you've nicely presented, and you know that, but you're just looking for targets, and there he was. And that's cheap-ass shit, ltl.

You need to center yourself a bit. Nobody with your level of rage is pointing it all outward. What happened? What made Wonk #2, and me #3 (and Vegewhatever #1, but not as your choice)?

You've just become Queen Asshole, ya know?

Thanks.

It took him a few minutes, but, after an attack like that, I can understand being pissed.

A friend of mine has taken to saying "hoisted on Jean Luc Picard." Sounds geeky and dirty at the same time. Caught on with my group of friends like wildfire.
