<a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/2698507.stm">"The Faggot
Family"</a>:
The Doody family from Wolverhampton has been crowned The Faggot
Family in a national competition, and to kick off their reign they
will launch National Faggot Week. . . .
The competition was organised by . . . Mr Brain's Faggots. . . .
OK, I admit it, the ellipses end up concealing the real explanation.
(Incidentally, for those who think this is a hoax, it doesn't seem to
be, and the Oxford English Dictionary does indeed confirm that
"faggot" has the definition that the story references.)
Thanks to my friend Ted Balaker for the pointer.
