There's a special double-pointy asshat for these folks.

Asshat is the only word for these people.

Could someone explain the etymology behind the word "asshat"? I understand the meaning, but fail to grasp the, er, imagery, as it were.

My hunch is that it's source is Fark---if Drew didn't invent it, he certainly popularized it.

Somehow, I thought a riff on the pontiff's double-sided pointy hat (yes, yes, for the life of me I've forgotten its name....) was apropos

Good lord, man, you're leading me further into the trackless wastes. What, or who, is Fark?

That wouldn't be the MITRE you're thinking of, would it?

Hey, SC did finally get that confederate flag off the flagpole.
