With due respect to "Jill from Utah" (and Dear Leader) there is already a perfectly good word to describe what she's caviling about and no --- it's not caviling, which is not a perfectly good word. It's "niggle." So if you don't mind, for purposes of the weekend Pool party, I'll go with the combo "Jiggle." Should make everyone happy. I was going to say my Jiggle is the overuse of the word "sphincter," but what really gets my knickers in a twist is when you order a venti 7 pump vanilla soy 12 scoop matcha 180 degree no foam green tea latte and THERE IS FOAM. Yes, yes --- I know. Disgusting. Almost as bad as those banana stickers not all facing the same way.

Being hot for Inger Stevens as an eleven-year-old boy was not remotely gross. It was perfectly natural and, I would say, praiseworthy.
