Bootsy Defined
According to the Urban Dictionary, something is "bootsy" if it's particularly horrible or wretched.

As in, William Shatner thinks it's an absolutely bootsy decision to not have him be part of the next Star Trek flick. As you may have heard, JJ Abrams is directing a a new movie about the Starship Enterprise that is going to take a look back at the original crew's origins. So there are young actors playing the roles of Kirk, Spock, Scottie, etc. However, Nimoy (who played Spock) will be showing up in the movie as well, and this is what has the Shat's panties in a bunch:

"I couldn't believe it. I'm not in the movie at all. Leonard [Nimoy], God bless his heart, is in, but not me," Shatner, 76, told The Associated Press on Thursday. "I thought, what a decision to make, since it obviously is a decision not to make use of the popularity I have to ensure the movie has good box office. It didn't seem to be a wise business decision."

Wow. Shatner is so high on himself that he thinks his "popularity" will ensure that the film has a good box office? Really? So what explains the relatively disappointing gross for Miss Congeniality 2, Shatner? Sure, $48 million isn't bootsy, but it was less than half the domestic pulled in by the original. Oh wait, I got it! The sequel didn't have enough of you in it, right?

Right.

Sneaky Butcher Defined
A term used to refer to a gay man when you don't want someone "not in the know" to actually know you're talking about a gay man (while it may not be derogatory, depending on the context, it more often than not is). Derivation: A sneaky butcher likes to sneak meat out the back door.

Henry Rollins is not a sneaky butcher, but that doesn't mean he thinks there's anything wrong with it. In fact, he actively speaks out for gay rights, which as a Seattle Times reporter pointed out, is rare for someone who isn't a sneaky butcher. Said Rollins:

I think it's really lame what's going on with those that are gay, and I'm not gay. I was raised around gay folks. I was raised in the Washington, D.C., area. My mom had gay friends. I had gay bosses. I worked at a movie theater and got propositioned four times a weekend. It was like, "You like boys, nah, it's not going to be me." I never wanted to kick some guy's ass. Some guys are creeps. But when you see the kind of hatred exacted at these people who can't help how they feel about men, it's sad. What if it was weird to be straight? What if someone said, "what's wrong with you" to me, for staring at a woman?

I think if Bill and Tom want to get married, they should be able to in America. If someone has a problem with that, go on your way.

Right on, brother. I'm as guilty as anyone at taking pot shots at celebrities with every chance I get. Who doesn't love slinging shit at them, right? But we should be fair and sometimes point out when celebrities say or do something positive, even though it ain't nearly as much fun. Luckily for us, this happens rarely.
