Prolife Drinking Game

At hashtag #prochoice on Twitter, I am amusing myself -- and apparently hardly anybody else -- with suggestions for triggers for the Prolife Drinking Game.

I was thinking of retweeting especially rich fetus-fetishist ravings, but I am not yet skilled enough twitter-wise to RT and explain what the hell I'm doing in 140 characters. This, for example, would be a strong contender for a prize (yet to be determined).



Some of my suggestions for PDG triggers: unborn, babies, jesus, bible, sluts, murder, proaborts, brainsuckedout, taxdollars, Nazis (yes, at least twice today that I've seen), holocaust, etc. Anyone who reads DJ! with any regularity could come up with 15 or 20 in as many seconds.

Then, there are the new coinings that may or may not survive. Currently, these include Gosnell and sextrafficking.

Of course, turn-about being fair play, same could be done for pro-choice side: science, facts, research, humanrights, forcedbirth, fetusfetishist, LunaticRightWing, etc.

Since I'm not getting any takers on Twitter, I thought I'd blog my little notion.

Feel free to submit suggestions for more triggers and/or contenders.

Fun! Prizes (yet to be determined)! Mockery!

JJ will win this game, I'll bet.

How about "abortion industry"? And then there's that perennial favourite, "abortion mill" and my personal all-time fave of all the hysterical fetus fetishist hyperbole, "abortuary".

And "culture of death"! And going a little further afield (because they're bigots as well as misogynists), "homosexualist".

What's the idea, see one of these expressions on Twitter and take a shot? I'd be shitfaced in about 5 minutes.

JJ arrives!

Yes,shitfaced is the perfect condition in which to 'argue' with them.

Oooh, another one! #scarequotes Ok, that doesn't really qualify as a hashtag, but still. . .

And 'pre-born'. One of my and St. George's faves.

On Twitter, I'm arguing with a guy who uses the word 'abortionist'. Some prochoicers were telling him that there are no abortionists. He went all dictionary on them, then made an analogy. 'Bakes, baker, abortion, abortionist.' Um. No. I'm trying to get him to use 'aborter', as in 'aborts, aborter'. Said I loved tortured fetus fetishist language.

LOL. You're a better woman than I -- I just don't have the patience to deal with them anymore. My Dumbness Endurance Threshold has fallen to about zero lately.

Well, I'm newish to Twitter. Arguing with morans in 140 characters is still something of a challenge. Even rose to SUZYALLCAPS' bait over there. Just twice though. Despite the fact HER timeline went nuts trying to get me to admit to something or other. I'm bored with that. SUZY is old news.

My fave - aborted women.

@Anonymous: yup, that's a good one.

Twitter is the perfect medium for SUZANNE. She can just spit, err tweet, out all the fetus fetishist talking points one after another, ad nauseum. Her twitterstream is frightening: it looks like something you'd see in a psych101 class on the Obsessive-Compulsive personality.

"partial birth"? They seem to spin out over that one..

And for the CRTC/CANCON approved version "Morgantaler"*

*Used in the same sentence as "Order of Canada" make it a triple shot.
