Kavanaugh's hearing posted:

I don’t know if it’s ‘buffed’ or ‘boofed,’ how do you pronounce that?” Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) asked Kavanaugh during the hearing, intended to address sexual assault allegations brought against Kavanaugh, which Kavanaugh has denied.

“That refers to flatulence,” Kavanaugh responded. “We were 16.”

Is boof and bufu still used nowadays, or was that an 80s thing?

e: In 82-83 in Pennsylvania and 83-85 in Oklahoma, intermediate and high school, it was unquestionably buttfucking, verb and noun forms. I was wondering if the expression survived past the 80s.
Kavanaugh is definitely a lyin-rear end POS, but we already knew that.

Its an English / Australian thing to me.

Boof is basically gently caress but a little more polite. Boofed her in the back seat. He's a boofhead. He's off to boof him. She's boofing him right now.

But you wouldn't say "get boofed" or "boof me dead" or "what a dog boofer" because it's a polite word you loving animals.

And it definitely has nothing to do with farts.

First catastrophic crash only afterreaching combat readiness means one of two things:

1. The plane was rushed through development. :l
2. The plane is unusually reliable and safe and the testing regime put a hell of a lot of emphasis on ensuring this.

affo: if you believe that the first one is the case here. One of the reasons the F-35 took so long was that they went with a stupidly safe and slow testing regime for it - if they had done this at a tempo comparable to the F-15 or F-16, we'd have seen F-35s going operational sometimes around 2010-2012. And then we would have seen a whole bunch of crashes over the first few years as service pilots find out about problems the hard way.

I thought boofing was when you stick something up your rear end for the purpose of getting high?

Mostly Harmless

It's got a lot of competition, but "does a single crash threaten the viability of the F-35 program" may be the stupidest take yet about the F-35.

For anyone who missed the Kavanaugh hearings:

1) Kavanaugh basically said he is going to gently caress Democrats in the rear end in every ruling when he gets confirmed: "You sowed the wind for decades to come. The whole country will reap the whirlwind." and my favorite :This grotesque and coordinated character assassination will dissuade competent and good people of all political persuasions from serving our country. And as we all know, in the United States political system of the early 2000s, what goes around comes around."
2) Kavanaugh blamed these accusations as part of a vast left-wing conspiracy to tank his nomination, motivated by revenge for Hillary Clinton.

I mean, on the top of it, it's "just another instance" of Republicans saying out loud the things they're not supposed to say out loud, but this is a future Supreme Court judge literally saying he's going to get revenge on the democrats.

College Slice
Entitled rich ivy league frat boy saw that there was the possibility of society not handing him the supreme court seat that he has spent his life deserving. Fair chance that was the first time in his entire conscious lifetime he was told "no" by anything besides someone higher on the social ladder performing a dominance power play.

For it to come from someone like Ford would likely be flat out unacceptable to the world view that kind of privilege bubble creates, so you see crazy poo poo like threatening the entire Democrat party that surely must be in on the conspiracy and crying at the unfairness of the world (unfairness that his victims have had decades of experience dealing with, incidentally).
