What the Flurge?

Filed Under Hillary Clinton, Sarah Palin 

I tuned into SNL for a few minutes last night to what might happen since Barack Obama cancelled his guest host slot on the show in the wake of Hurricane Ike slamming into Texas yesterday.  Any comedic appearance on television could have opened Barack Obama up to criticism, so he bailed in favor of some campaigning elsewhere.

All wasn’t lost.  I learned a new word from “Hillary Clinton” last night — Flurge.

Video: Tina Fey as Sarah Palin and “Hillary” says Flurge

Amy Poehler’s Hillary Clinton implored people to stop calling her a Flurge:

“And don’t refer to me as a flurge. I Googled what it stands for and I do not like it.” 

What is a Flurge?

I’m calling it as a made up word in the context of the show since Urban Dictionary’s Flurge definition is from 2002.  Flurge is “a cross between flush and purge,” according to the site.

It’s too bad that the rest of the show wasn’t as entertaining as the opening skit.  I couldn’t make it past the swim meet skit before flipping the television off and calling it an evening.

    Wikianswers has a flerge as “a mans penis when it is NOT erect.”

    nope… the caption says “FLERG” if you watched the show with [cc]… it means “flacid penis” (to be technical)

    you can google “flerg” if you want to learn more.
