Ginger

At the Secret Policeman's Ball 2008 the other night, funny man Tim Minchin debuted a song called "Ginger."

Seems "Only a ginger can call another ginger ginger"

Do you know why? I'd love to know.

i think he's making fun of the fact that you can't call a black man....ya know...that 6 letter word that starts with an n. not negro. that has 5 letters.

Brian, that could be.

A friend told me "Ginger" is a term for pubic hair. But your explanation makes more sense.

Baierman...
That question was rhetorical right? You do know that the "g word" relates to a redhead? And he's clearly talking about the horrible history of hairism that has existed in mankind. Having a wife and 2 daughters with red hair I guess I'm more sensitive to it.

Oh, and, as brian said, it's an anagram for that other word...

hairism. I wish I could suffer from that problem. Unfortunately, my hair left long ago.
Thanks for the insight though Dan.

I prefer parallelograms.

I had you pegged as a "quadrilateral supremacist." Just never thought you'd admit it! In public no less!

Watch out Baier... maybe you are suffering unhairy discrimination and just don't know.
I've heard of jokes about mosquito's airport, flea's deathstar and so on... Watch out for what's been told around you.
