    THERES ACTUALLY A HIGH SCHOOL IN AMERICA WITH THE NICKNAME CRIMINALS. COULD ANYTHING POSSIBLY BE MORE SUBTLE THAN THE B IN SUBTLE? WHEN DID RICHARD BECOME SUCH A DICK? A VERY ATTRACTIVE, THIN MOTHER IS CALLED A MOMSHELL. PEOPLE IN VERMONT CALL THEIR BOSTON TOURISTS MASSHOLES. WHILE CADE IS A TRENDY NAME AMONGST YOUR PEERS, IT COULD GET YOUR SON BEAT-UP AT SCHOOL. These are just some of the odd and fascinating observations featured in this book. For the past three decades rookie author Patrick Ragains has been plotting to unleash his unique (and sometimes controversial) insights about our language...our words, names and phrases. He has tried to make sense of them and organize them all here in Lexicon: American Style. Ragains has compiled lists, chapters and brief essays about our lexicon that amuses, confuses and defuses him. His subjects range from Words That Go Against Our Spelling Rules to New Combo-Words to WTF Sports Team Names...and as part of his tribute to the late comic George Carlin, his Favorite Profanity. Well-suited for the coffee table, but probably better suited for the bathroom, Lexicon: American Style is sure to educate, entertain or provoke you. Read on.
