"My butt cheeks are for squeezing. Go on, take a handful. Take two."

(whispering) "Shhhh. I have to tell you this. But I have to be quiet, or I'll get in trouble. (normal tone now) Midgets. You know, small people. People of pathetic height, I think that's what they're called. Yeah. Diminutive folk... in drag, scare the shit out of me. But only in drag. Don't know why. Must be something from my childhood. Mmm-Hmm. Scary shit though."

Karen's notes: These are from the nest egg. Too bad the recorder didn't catch Adam whispering his opening disclaimer.

Merch news: After much clamoring yesterday, I put "All I want out of life is ice cream and cuddles" in the shops. Shirts and mugs! While I was at it, I also added "Shark cuddling: The next extreme sport".

There's a special on for the rest of August! All tank tops and muscle Ts are 25% off. Use coupon code NOSLEEVES at checkout (except Canadians, use CADNOSLEEVES).

    If the first quote is put on a shirt and worn in public, that person should not be filing any sexual harassment suits. Hope any little people following the blog don't get offended by the second one though. Probably not seeing as the m word wasn't used.

    Scratch that, he did use the m word. Beware the leprechauns.

    I assume that in his waking life, Adam has nothing against drag queens, midgets, or combinations of the two. At least I hope not . . .

    I'd be pretty darn happy to see drag queen midgets, er...little people. But I don't know how "little people" isn't offensive.

    I agree Marilyn B! I've always thought that I would much prefer to be called a midget or a dwarf, rather than a "little person". How did THAT get to be PC? What's wrong with midget and/or dwarf?

    Or perhaps he's saying, "Dwarfed people?" Which I suppose is almost correct.... (I'm pretty small myself, so I can understand why they're sensitive about being categorized as anything other than human, though.) I could easily pass for a boy with a quick change of hair and clothes, and I wonder if that would scare STM?

    I think 'little person' is an American hyper PC thing. It's stupid, and most of the vertically challenged folks I know actually prefer dwarf if the condition is genetic (dwarfism is an actual hereditary medical condition) Midget is usually considered offensive, however, due to its ties with the carnival sideshow industry.

    technically, a dwarf is a person who has the condition dwarfism, and a midget is someone who has no specific medical condition but is 5 foot tall or less. I only know this because everyone calls me a midget, and I have to tell them that technically I'm 1 inch too tall to be a midget...

    Don't sweat it ST! Midgets in drag scare the shit out of me! And I'm a Mad Yank with many guns!

    Bring forth Midgets in drag, and clown make up, and all you'll see of me is a streak of shit, and a cloud of dust!

    This has nothing to do with the PCness or not, but I think "midget" is a fun word. Just to say: mi-jit... I also think "compunction" is fun, com-PUNK-shun. Which really has little to do with anything. And STM's childhood must have been interesting indeed!

    In drag I'm generally fine with, shorties (hey, if I'm gonna be un-PC I might as well go the whole hog, right?) I have no problem with... even clowns don't scare me... but midget-clowns, now that's what scares the livin' crap outta me!
