Unfitney n. Britney Spears—or as the media likes to call her “Unfitney”—missed her court-ordered deposition yesterday morning because of a general medical illness but was cruising around until 2am last night. [ ] [full cite] (Dec. 18, 2007)
vusvus n. Yet another mindless leftist VusVus cosmopolitan stupidity. Humans have slaughtered each other for universalistic reasons (as in revolutionary France, Russia or China) as least as often as they have slaughtered each for narrow tribal reasons. Groveling cosmopolitan VusVusim were stunned when the Nazis came for them. [ ] [full cite] (Mar. 13, 2005)
vuzvuz n. And now, since when Iraq is the Medirerranean, no disrespect intended? since when Ovadia is a Med? Again the Ashkenaziut showing its ear! “anything not vuzvuz is the Med, ya’ani Sefardim, Españolim, the lot.” [ ] [full cite] (Mar. 13, 2005)
vuzvuz n. Speaking of pejoratives, have you heard the term “vuzvuz” applied to Ashkenazim? Apparently derived from the frequent use of “vus? vus?” in Yiddish. I am not sure that there is any real insult attached to this, though. I often say to people who ask about my origins: Ani? Ani vuzvuz. For that matter, some of my Sephardic friends and colleagues often refer to themselves as frenkim. Perhaps the insult has worn off and all that is left is the wry humour? [ ] [full cite] (Mar. 13, 2005)
wab n. You half-baked beaners should learn English, damn it! You fat, piss-drunk, chicharron-eating wabs! None of you belong here! I see a lot of wasted space in my country gesturing at his own muscular chest occupied by you wabs jabbing his finger at the audience ! All of you Mexicans can kiss my great white ass! [ ] [full cite] (Jul. 22, 2005)
wab n. “I just hope Victoria doesn’t look like a little wab.” Wab—short for wetback—was, I had already discovered, the single most popular local youth insult. “Whenever my mom has Victoia for more than a couple of hours, she’s totally wabbed out—ribbons everywhere, little sandals, frilly socks.” [] [full cite] (Jul. 22, 2005)
wackie n. Wackie—a stupid person. [ ] [full cite] (May. 13, 2005)
weed n. Dantonio wanted to get guys to quit, wanted the weak, or the “the weeds” as he called them, to leave. It was a risk. Maybe he’d lose some talent, but what good is it if the character is corosive? [ ] [full cite] (Sep. 1, 2007)
welfarican n. Are you for real??? De verdad pretendes que te tomen con seriedad cuando haces comentarios tan generales, ignorantes y racistas como: “yo comprendo que para el welfarican ( el puertorro, que se ha criado del sistema del mantengo, no conoce esta palabras grandes, y su sinificado), pero hay algunos puerto rique~nos que si conocen, porque se criaron en PR, donde no existe welfare.” Lo primero es que decir o insinuar que todo puertorriquen~o que se crio en PR es “autosuficiente” meramente porque se crio en PR, es un falsedad. [ ] [full cite] (Dec. 27, 2006)
whicker bill n. As for the pact about being about being a nigger, the most obvious thing about that was that you were not a whicker-bill different like them old peckerwoods were. [ ] [full cite] (Apr. 22, 2005)
