Buckwheat

After a character from the Little Rascals comedy films, from buckwheat. Popularized by politician Corey Poitier in March 2010 though attestations exist as early as February 2008.

How will "Buckwheat" Obama handle the ever increasing nuke threat from
Iran?

2008 February 4, Gabby Hayes, “"Buckwheat" Obama and Iran”, in alt.politics (Usenet):

You know as well as I do that OIF will end sweetly, nicely, AND WAAY
BEFORE 2012. Unlike Hitlary (always ducking sniper fire) and
Buckwheat (doesn't know when to duck or how to fire), McAmnesty will
leave a bloody trail of blasted ass from the Mall to Langley!

2008 May 6, Patriot Games, “Buckwheat Gets Mahmoud Ahmadinejad Endorsement!”, in alt.politics (Usenet):

If you voted for Buckwheat in 2008, it proves your^([sic]) not a racist. If you vote for Buckwheat in 2012, it will prove that you are a frickin' idiot. Life's tough, but it is tougher when you are stupid.

2011 August 4, L.W. Van Leuven, Pivotal Point, Xlibris Corporation, →ISBN, page 14:

Buckwheat was the first to ignore the 1st Ammendment^([sic]) and the government not
interfering with the free exercise of religious faith.

Cheetolini

Blend of Cheeto + Mussolini, referencing the resemblance of Trump's facial complexion with the color of Cheetos and his perceived political similarity to Benito Mussolini.

"We don’t know the scope of involvement he has planned. The New York Times, though, reported that Obama’s team rushed to preserve intelligence regarding possible contacts between Trump’s presidential campaign and Russia."
Trying to keep Cheetolini from destroying incriminating evidence hardly qualifies, IMO.

2017 March 7, Futbol Phan, “Worse than Carter, twice?”, in rec.sport.football.college (Usenet):

“[…]But her being trans has nothing to do with those privileges; her gender identity is separate from the fact that she is not very smart and voted for Cheetolini.[…]”

2018 May 22, Franchesca Ramsey, Well, That Escalated Quickly: Memoirs and Mistakes of an Accidental Activist, Hachette UK, →ISBN, →LCCN, →OCLC:

Fang Fang went Bang Bang (important China collusion hoax news involving

see where the Supreme Court did not follow Presidential Ordering and
throw away all the democrat ballots and declare an incredible landslide
for Cheetolini The Truly Great and Amazing?

Coontown

Calmness and

“Pretty sure. Black folk don't usually come this far through the woods and white folks almost never go through the woods toward Coontown.”

2010 July 19, Nicholas Watt, “David Cameron reveals ‘big society’ vision – and denies it is just cost cutting”, in The Guardian:

Blue Labour thinking, here, converges seamlessly with Cameron's “big society”.

Not only were charities facing “crippling spending cuts”, but the government had also lost its way without a clear narrative to deliver the big society, he said.

At first it sounded quite lovely, didn’t it? The notion of a “big society” – back in those heady days when David Cameron and Nick Clegg stood side by side in the Downing Street garden.

In the present day, it looks likely that Liz Truss will win. This is due to her willingness to tell Tory fairy tales (Trussian fairy tales) and embrace magical thinking on taxes, public spending and economics, all of which the Tory membership, still supporting the Thatcherite mirage, want to believe.

And as the Trussian juggernaut rules the waves, next week is unlikely to be Rishi's Trafalgar, but almost certainly his Waterloo.

These are perfectly consistent with the new Prime Minister’s approach to the world, and she should focus on telling a story of how these will build to a longer-term Trussian approach after the election.

But one does not attend a Meghan Markle speech – her first in Britain since 2020’s Megxit – expecting either profundity or revelation, any more than one would hope for Wildean (or even Trussian) sallies of wit.

2022 September 7, David Aaronovitch, “Be honest, Liz, and you might earn goodwill”, in The Times:

With what could yet come to be seen as Trussian bluntness, this became apparent in her first answer to him.

2017 October 16, 4chan, /pol/, archived from the original on 2023-04-18:

This gets even weirder, though. Since every photo of him seems to have been taken and released by the artist Krista Sudmalis, whose ongoing "Sleek'N'Tears" project is his lone credit — and there he is exclusively referred to as "1969" — it's fair to suspect that GigaChad is almost entirely Sudmalis' digital creation.

2021 February 1, Miles Klee, “Who Is GigaChad: Meme, Digital Creation or Russian Model?”, in MEL Magazine, archived from the original on 2024-01-06:

"GigaChad" (also known as "Average Enjoyer") is Russian menswear model and bodybuilder Ernest Khalimov. Aside from the "GigaChad" memes, he isn't very well-known. Even in the "Sleek'N'Tears" project, he was exclusively known as "1969," so it's fair that a lot of people are surprised to hear that he's a real person.
