James Comey under investigation for insulting the king

Anonymous
Remember when Trump retweeted this photo of Biden all tied up? No? Well, I do. MAGA loved it. Somehow that wasn't perceived as threatening to Biden's safety.

I’ve heard about way more things being 86’d than people. 86-Ing something has always meant removing it, cutting it out. I didn’t learn it from the service industry, but I can believe it started there. My friends and I would 86 a section from a presentation if it was running too long. We’d 86 plans if circumstances changed.

I’m in my 50s, so I’m not familiar with Gen Z lingo. I just asked my 17 year old, “If I said ‘let’s 86 Jack,’ what would you think I meant?” She responded, “Let’s not include him in our plans.”

I’m sure some people do use it in the context of offing someone, but that’s far from being the most common interpretation. I assume that most of the time a person says “86 [insert president here],” they’re saying get rid of him, as in, we need a different, better president. I wouldn’t jump to the assumption that they were talking about assassination.

Theoretically, a president can be removed from office without a drop of blood being shed. Trump won’t be removed from office, but it’s entirely possible that he will be impeached by the House and tried in the Senate again if the House changes hands with the midterms.

It's a term used in hospitality industry and the military, and it has nothing to do with violence.


You are wildly out of touch. Please stop embarrassing yourself.


Wildly out of touch with respect to a term that has its own Wikipedia page. And guess what? No killing involved.

Another MAGA moron. Or in MAGA-speak, you are a r***rd.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/86_(term)

"In the hospitality industry, it is used to indicate that an item is no longer available, traditionally from a food or drinks establishment, or referring to a person or people who are not welcome on the premises. Its etymology is unknown, but the term seems to have been coined in the 1920s or 1930s.

Military personnel might use "86" to refer to scrapping equipment (e.g., "That old radio got 86'd") or ending a plan or mission (e.g., "The op was 86'd due to bad weather"). It's not an official term in military doctrine or manuals, but it's part of the informal jargon and culture of soldiers, sailors, and airmen due to its common and frequent use, and is a concept military members are assumed to understand, although it originates in broader civilian language."


OMG Wikipedia is largely used by people 40 and above. It’s a tool of ancients and it’s dying. Please, you are just digging in and it is embarrassing. Also, I’m not MAGA, I’m a Democrat shocked at how out of touch DCUM is.

Gen Z uses TikTok, not freaking Wikipedia. And on TikTok, you can’t use terms referring to death. So, they get around it. 86 isn’t the only alternative use but it specifically means to call for someone’s death. Examples:

Unalive - suicide (verb or noun)
86 - to kill
A Pew-pew - a gun
To pew-pew - to shoot someone

8647 is a death threat in contemporary parlance. Now, Comey may be ignorant, like you, but that doesn’t change the usage.

Right, which is why MAGA doesn’t have a leg to stand on here.

Yes, it’s an assassination reference but MAGA has been doing this for years so they can hardly legitimately complain.

I started in the restaurant industry in the early 80s. In every restaurant I worked in there is a list in the kitchen. It is the 86 List. It is written on the list "86 List". It had things like "pickles", "rye bread". Things you are out of. It remains that way. If you children aren't creative enough to come up with your own terms, that's your problem.

Yes. The 86 46 republican merch is on sale on Amazon.

Methinks MAGA doth protest too much.

Stop debating MAGA. They are laughing at you wasting your time.

Their only standards are double standards.

Their only faith is bad faith.

Remember that Comey's post was referring to a PERSON - not an item on a menu.

Merriam Webster:
"Among the most recent senses adopted is a logical extension of the previous ones, with the meaning of “to kill.”
"I hate to see the guys always getting eighty-sixed," she said, using military jargon for killed in action. "Not fair.”
— John Kifner, The New York Times, 3 Feb. 1991



It's funny that because MAGA never check a source behind their daily talking points, they assume that no one else does either.

"Among the most recent senses adopted is a logical extension of the previous ones, with the meaning of “to kill.” We do not enter this sense, due to its relative recency and sparseness of use."

I’m a former waitress and I thought this was restaurant slang for were out of. Like midway through the evening the word would go out to 86 the prawn salad bc we didn’t have any more. Is it commonly thought of as a threat?

My Gen Z cousin is the social media manager at a company. They have a 0 to Luigi scale to gauge how 'far' they are toeing the line of appropriate vs inappropriate.
