Lets 'santorum' Corsi

To remind folks on the evolution of 'santorum':

Background

For more details on this topic, see Santorum controversy.

In an interview with the Associated Press published April 20, 2003, Santorum grouped gay sex together with incest, polygamy, and zoophilia as deviant sexual behavior threatening society and the family.<3> He further stated that he believed consenting adults do not have a constitutional right to privacy with respect to sexual acts.<4>


Contest
Savage, who is openly gay and has had a history of political activism on behalf of gay rights, angrily addressed Santorum's comments in an op-ed published in the New York Times on April 25 titled "G.O.P. Hypocrisy." He linked Santorum's comments to the broader agenda of his party, saying "Mr. Santorum, who holds the No. 3 position in the Senate leadership, was only repeating what many Republicans have already said."<5> Savage next handled the matter in his sex-advice column, Savage Love on May 8, saying:

Striking down an insulting, discriminatory, unconstitutional law will not, as Santorum fears, open the doors to incest, adultery, bigamy, and bestiality. Straight people blew those doors off their hinges long, long ago.

Savage then proceeded to answer a letter about incest, which he opposes.<6>

Letters on the Santorum controversy began to arrive, "assuming correctly that the incident was right up Savage’s sex-politics alley," according to Liz Spikol of the Philadelphia Weekly.<7> One writer lamented, under the pseudonym "Sex and Rick Santorum," that the controversy seemed to already be forgotten, and urged Savage to organize a reader contest to determine a definition for the word "santorum." The reader reasoned that since Santorum had invited himself into the bedrooms of homosexuals, they should be "inclusive" and name a gay sex act for him. Savage agreed, saying

There's no better way to memorialize the Santorum scandal than by attaching his name to a sex act that would make his big, white teeth fall out of his big, empty head. Savage noted that the column had previously succeeded in creating a sexual slang word, "pegging," by getting the definition to begin appearing in dictionaries of sexual slang.<8> "I threw it out there to my readers," Savage later said.<7>

Savage published several definitions suggested by readers in subsequent columns. The winning definition was submitted by "Wipe Up That Santorum, Anal Pokers" in the May 29 column.<9> Votes were collected by e-mail, and the winning definition was announced June 12<10>; Savage concluded by asking for questions about santorum, and urged his readers to get the word out.<1> Savage has said that the winner was a "perfect fit," as there was no prior name for it. Santorum, he explained, is "unwelcome. If you’re doing right, it’s not gonna happen, and if it happens, it’s a bit of a killjoy, which is what it would be if the actual senator strolled into the room."<7>

Savage set up a website, santorum.com<7>. The site, also known as Spreading Santorum, gives the definition of the term "santorum," under which a brown, splattered stain appears on the otherwise-white page (see image). After this splash page, the site features letters to Savage tracking the dissemination of the term. The site includes a video of a person asking Santorum about the term at a town meeting-style forum and a letter that Satorum sent to a man in California outlining his objections to the "obscenity" of the website. Savage considered he had met his goal of "rubbing it in nose."<7>

As of July 2008, the site was the top Google result for the search term "santorum" as the result of a Google bomb. <11> <12>

So we should memorialize Corsi forever.

Let us come up with a working definition for the word 'corsi' and then create successive google bombs so that 'corsi' becomes commonly used.



Step One: Please provide definitions below that you think 'corsi' should be forever tied to. Let's not use explicitly sexual ones as that will retard its general useage. However a secondary 'blue' double entendre would be appropriate.

Step Two: We will take the top definitions and have a poll to determine the winner.

Step Three: Create a google bomb and see if we can't get the rest of the blogosphere to agree.

My suggestion for the definition of corsi is:
