You may have heard of
Harvey Levin, the bene/malevolent deity to whom
Paris Hilton appealed while in prison. He started the gossip website TMZ, which likes to coin new terms such as "celebuspawn", or the other day, in reference to a
Matrix-y dress worn by Beyonce, "roboho." To which Rev.
Al Sharpton got all: "WAIT A MINUTE HE SAID 'HO'!" So what did Harvey do next? Try and
correct the little mix-up by explaining that the term was actually not a reference to the types of Ludacris-supported college basketball playing "hos" but actually an entirely unrelated play off the fashionista terms "boho" and its corollary "foho," both of which are also often invoked to characterize dresses? Fuck no! He bought a flag, propped himself in front of it and made us believe in
liberty again with the most spirited defense of publicly shaming those who dress like prostitutes since the First Amendment was first signed into law.
