Greaseball? Re: Paglia on poststructuralists

[Simon Bryquer-RR]

Obviously from your name your are Jewish and  whether you practice or in
fact know anything about your religion it does not matter nor does it help
your observations nor does your critical acumen deserve any merit along the
lines of objectivity even though you want to come off as some kind as all
knowing retro white hipster in terms of your language when you use terms
like 'greaseball' Or would you say you come from kike heritage?

And I hope you realize that I'm not being Chaucerian, in that I don't mean
kike as  meaning  'to gaze steadfastly'.
