"Trollop" will be in Google's Top 10 Hot Trends Tomorrow
I twittered this but I feel pretty confident about this prediction, so I’ll elaborate.
Today the first snippets of the illustrious Cliff Schecter’s new book, The Real McCain, came out on the web. Boy is it a doozy.
At one point, Cindy playfully twirled McCain’s hair and said, “You’re getting a little thin up there.” McCain’s face reddened, and he responded, “At least I don’t plaster on the makeup like a trollop, you c—t.”
The latter accusation is easily understood, but the former is a word that was probably last used in a speakeasy.
In case you were wondering what a trollop is:
a vulgar or disreputable woman; especially one who engages in sex promiscuously or for money (Date: 1621)
I had to Google it to find the definition. I’m betting we’ll see it somewhere in the Hot Trends on Google tomorrow, if not in the top 10. The book is already #238 on Amazon, and it started at #150,000 this morning.
Now, to figure out how to work in “trollop” to a conversation tomorrow…
