DLers who went to high school in late 70s, early or mid 80s do you know Kavanaugh's slang terms? Devil's triangle, boof, ffff?

It’s all so sordid!

I remember "bufu," a homophobic insult that was short for "buttfucker." Moon Zappa talked about her English teacher being "Mr. Bufu" in "Valley Girl."

Boffing meant "butt fucking" when I was in school around that age.

Yes, if you said two men were bufu buddies it was slang for them being gay.

The only one I knew was Ralphing

Like you, I was in HS in the late 90s-early 2000s. I had to look these up on urban dictionary, although you always have to take its definitions with a grain of salt. For example, devil’s triangle claims it’s MFF not MMF. My mother knew BK was lying about these terms because she was familiar with FFFF (as four Fs), boofing, and of course ralphing. (I think most of us are for that one.) She’s from the west coast, a few years older than BK.

[quote]Boffing meant "butt fucking" when I was in school around that age.

Actually, "boffing" was fucking in general, and the term went back to at least the early 1950s.

Bufu and boof are different. Boof is a booty bump. If that newer term alludes you, it’s means putting drugs up your ass.

yes I did know ralph/ralphing as my parents who are in their mid-late 60s used that term when I was a little kid. I hadn't heard the others until the yearbook page became public and like R6 I had to look them up

Boof = ass fucking. Universally understood in the early 80’s. That assclown lied, lied, lied.

So where they buttfuck gangbanging her or taking turns shoving drugs up her ass???

I always understood Boof to mean fucking.

Interesting that boofing has been known to some as inserting drugs rectally and sex to others. Maybe a regional thing? I never heard of it before this week.

1978 high school graduate, military and lived in DC during the period Special K was ploying his Beaver Cleaver routine here. Bufu was definitely in use for anal sex and derogatory for gays. Devils Triangle I heard at the Pier - I dated a bartender there (Ken? Ken?) Quaaludes were readily available. I’m not pointing fingers at the bars, but dealers hung out at Madam’s Organ, Pier, Frat House, Badlands. I wouldn’t be surprised (but have no way of knowing) that rich white frat boys weren’t using ludes on victims, like rohypnol and ghb are used today.

When they asked Kavanaugh what that meant, he said something like vomiting, nothing associated with anal sex. What a liar.

He would definitely not be known as a “fox”

sorry, correction. He said farting.

just for a reminder Kavanaugh claimed ffff was a "funny way a friend of his would start to say 'fuck' ".

He also said devil's triangle was similar to playing a game called quarters

In "Desperate Living" (1977), Peggy Gravel screams, "Find 'em, feel 'em, fuck 'em, forget 'em! Is that your new motto?"

I guess Brett and pals had "finger" in there, too.

"Bufu" meant buttfucking and was a gay slur. "Bufu buddies" meant just what you'd think.

"Devil's triangle" and "devil's threesome" both meant two boys, one girl. It was IMPERATIVE that the guys didn't interact or else they'd be bufu buddies.

"Ralph" was throwing up, of course.

From what I remember, boofing was fucking, ralphing was puking and devils triangle referred to particular parts of the female anatomy.

Boof just meant fucking where I grew up

Im the same age as Kavanaugh and Ford; ralph = vomit, specifically from binge drinking, boffing (pronounced like offing w/a b) = fucking and just to add bermuda triangle = woman's pubic area - b/c (a) you can get lost in there and (b) b/c its a mystery and entirely different from devil's triangle - which was definitely a threesome reference.

I haven't looked at the yearbook/calendar entries - but are there references to spending a lot of time at the "Y"? That was the preferred early/mid 80s euphemism for oral sex

Another one that's probably out of date but from that time -- "lunch downtown."

and another reminder-Kavanaugh claimed his reference to ralphing was because he had a weak stomach when it came to spicy food. That right there should have been obvious to everyone that he was lying. No teenage boy would brag in a yearbook that his stomach could not handle spicy food as he'd been seen as feminine.

Couldn't care less about the parlance, as long as SOMEBODY keeps blowing the blow up my ass.

I wanted to scream at the stupid senator who held up a enlarged image of the July 1 party on Brett's calendar with "Skis" circled like it was another name of one Brett's friends. It obviously meant "Brewskis" or beers with his friends. This was very likely the party where he attacked Dr. Ford

When I was in college in the early 80s, boofing was just butt fucking, although it could be done with either gender. If you were boofed, that meant you had been fucked in the ass (often metaphorically).

R11 were*

“Calling Ralph on the porcelain phone” was slang for vomming in a toot

Given his age I'd have to think he only knew of "boof" as anal sex -- I am reasonably sure that "boofing" drugs up the ass was a term that grew out of the original "bufu" slang term, and was more common in the late 80s when Kavanaugh was already well past high school.

I’m sorry, r15. He was doing a dutch over in High School?

And he definitely lied about the whole Renate Alumni thing. Fucking ugly ass red spotted faced liar.

Privileged white boys in the early 80s didn't have many encounters with spicy food, so there's no way that would make a notice in his yearbook entry.

r26 ski references, even in the early 80s was a reference to cocaine (“powder”)

R30 is right, I'm two years younger than Kavanaugh and nobody was putting drugs up their ass then.

What's clear is Kavanaugh thinks everyone else is too stupid to see through his lies.

Teenager in the late 90s and boofing meant butt fucking.

Kavanaugh lied like a rug during is testimony Thursday. He's a terrible actor, he repeated talking points from his FOX interview word for word, and hopefully his claims/excuses are easily disprovable.

devil's triangle = devil's threesome = eiffel tower

high school in the late 90s, but boof'd was fucked and beef'd was farted

Lots of people here thinking in terms more likely overheard at Studio 54 from Liza and Warhol than by a suburban white kid, like Brett, whose speech at the time was mostly quotes from Animal House.
