BBC News: Family of faggot fans fly the flag
"A West Midlands family is playing a central role in the quest to raise the profile of a forgotten British dish - faggots.
"The Doody family from Wolverhampton has been crowned The Faggot Family in a national competition, and to kick off their reign they will launch National Faggot Week."

The "Doody" family, no less. Ain't language something?
Those poor little faggot children... This reminds me of a Dave Chappelle clip I saw. It was about a white family with an controversial racial last name.

ReplyDeleteMr. Brain's Pork Faggots' name is so outlandish that I could not, would not, believe it was real at first. That BBC article is straight from the Onion.
I mean, who would eat anything made by a Mr. Brain, let alone faggots?
ReplyDeleteMr. Faggot's Pork Brains.
ReplyDelete@kkdither thing is faggots was the name of that food before it became associated with gay people, before then faggots was a English unit applied to various-sized collections of sticks, I think
