Pluggers ....
Okay, I only have one fancy dress. Leave me alone!
If you don't wear a suit to work, don't you only need one?

This is a blog devoted to the comic strip "Pluggers", about the "80 percent of humanity who unceremoniously keep plugging along -- balancing work, play and family life." This strip is also described as "America’s first interactive, reader-participation comic." That sounds like most of us, right? And our fellow Americans are sending in the ideas. So let's see how it matches up with reality, shall we?
What is Ableist Language?
Ableist Word Profile at FWD
This is a good place to start. It's an ongoing series.
The posts are "101" so feel free to ask questions, as long as they're not "FREE SPEECH!!!!" or "Why does this matter?"
Anyone commenting here who uses such words to describe me or the comics will get a warning and if they continue, their comments will be deleted.
Please respect me at my blog.
It's not censorship, it's my personal blog. I am not the government. And the internet is not the USA.
If you must, go to your own blog, or to twitter or facebook and use it. You're free to do so. Just not here.
Yes, I have used ableist language here in the past. Not proud of it, but I'm not going to go back and edit all the posts where I did. It's important to see how I've grown as a person.
This is an R Word free blog.

I guess the idea is that they don't know when to dress up.
I don't own any suits. I'm not even as classy as a plugger . . .
Ugh -- is rabbit-plugger coming on to bear-plugger? She better watch out or she'll break a cardinal rule of pluggerdom: married pluggers don't have sex except to procreate.
Begone, temptress!
Rabbit Pluggerwife, realizing that bears are cannibalistic, is proposing her husband honor his parents' anniversary by volunteering to be served "for" the anniversary dinner. After all, they've hunted out the area and it will now only support low-impact species like kangaroos.
As an ecological bonus, Bear Pluggerman's parents are old bears, and eating a sumptuous fatty bearmeat dinner will give them both coronaries.
It's probably the use of bear-hide - procured through seductive kangaro sex tricks even Cosmo girls were not meant to know - that kangaroos were able to invade a bear habitat to begin with.
All to say that read properly Pluggers can be as informative as Mark Trail.
