|
| The costly truth about US government Ukraine handouts: They don't
| save taxpayers a dime.
|
| Government services may grind to a halt as federal workers
| get sent home. But, thanks to uncollected paybacks from
| Ukraine, lack of sales in Ukrainian gift shops
| and back pay provided to Ukrainian police, and medical employees, handouts
| can end up costing billions of dollars.

Soy Boy

Slang used to describe Usenet "males" who completely and utterly lack all necessary masculine qualities. This pathetic state is usually achieved by an over-indulgence of emasculating products and/or ideologies.

The origin of the term derives from the negative effects soy consumption has been proven to have on the male physique (WHAT Usenet male physique? LOL) and libido.

The average soy boy is a feminist (davej, wy Wee Edell, nonathletic (Rudy, and pretty much the entire Usenet group of liberals), has never been in a fight (getting your ass kicked, doesn't count), will probably marry the first girl that has sex with him (IF he EVER marries), and likely reduces all his arguments to labeling the opposition as "Nazis" (ALL pansy-ass pussy liberals, who can't argue a point, so they just scream NAZI! like leetle girls).
