Your Outraged Yet? The Origin of Teabagging

I actually happened to be in DC on Tea-Party / Teabagging day because I took my son to the Air and Space Museum. I saw only one giant pick-up truck with a big sign in the back, protesting the way Obama stole the elections, or something like that. And I didn't even have a camera...

Luckily, I have Flickr.

More below, including the origins of teabagging.

Hey, that's offensive in an ironic way. Well done.

Obama is Satan? I understand Hitler. Hitler is Protest 101. But Satan? Well done!


Hey, big boy, you tell them.
Obama has been much too preoccupied with raising taxes to be able to target terrorism.
Other than having the biggest tax cut in history and all.
But still!


Infiltrators! Don't you know we can't handle the truth?


Here's one from March.
Look, Obama's hope is shooting a small business.
Or something like that. I'm not that good with metaphors.


All right. Someone needs a hug. Or some teabagging.

And here's the origin of teabagging, from John Waters' movie Pecker. I'm proud to be a Baltimorean Baltimorian Baltimore resident today.

Actually, according to Waters, he only introduced the term, but the act of teabagging existed before him.

"Teabagging" is by my definition the act of dragging your testicles across your partner's forehead. In the UK it is dipping your testicles in your partner's mouth. I didn't invent the term or the act but DID introduce it to film in my movie "Pecker." "Teabagging" was a popular dance step that male go-go boys did to their customers for tips at The Atlantis, a now defunct bar in Baltimore. Hope this helps. -- John Waters
