fence sieve

Apparently A word or phrase considered in general to be bigoted, but claimed by its user to be a descriptive truth that is suppressed by political correctness. Sometimes used to just mean bigoted language in general. I'm not exactly sure (because I cannot find a free copy of the entire originating article), but it seems to originally be an inside joke shared among people who have studied semantics, a phrase coined by then Institute of General Semantics executive director Steve Stockdale in a 2007 article entitled, "A Fence Sieve Language," which appears in the publication by the General Semantics Institute called, Calling Out the Symbol Rulers. "Fence sieve" appears to be an ironic take on a quote from Aldous Huxley's 1963 article, "Culture and the Individual": "A culture cannot be discriminatingly accepted, much less be modified, except by persons who have seen through it─by persons who have cut holes in the confining stockade of verbalized symbols and so are able to look at the world and, by reflection at themselves, in a relatively new and unprejudiced way."

I spent the money and directly sent this to be the pettest person ever to a person who was doing this to me. It was awesome

It’s a sturdy ceramic mug. A little pricey, IMO, but I really wanted this definition on a mug. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Just what is needed for someone’s desk during the pandemic and beyond when they have to “MacGuyver” to make things happen.

The Urban Dictionary offers one-of-a-kind products in its Coffee Mugs if you want to purchase something interesting. A bit off-center and not the norm. This is the place to be. Customer service is responsive to your query when asking a question. All Good.

its an alright mug. its moderate. mid. not the best. not the worst. pretty normal. if it was the weather it would be 50 degrees F. something so unexperiencing and experiencing at the same time. if it was on a number line, it would be in the center. i rate it a 5/10.
