literally none of the words you typed meant anything to me.
please explain.
She's using homophobic language on national TV.
What's difficult to understand?
She's calling him the bottom in a gay relationship, basically.Is that different from being an "ass man"?
That show is so unprofessional, that this doesn't surprise me. I'll take your word for it. Smh
EDIT: Didn't realize it was a slur. I've never heard it before.
A different Mika thankfully.
Basically this:
She's calling him the bottom in a gay relationship, basically.
I googled Mika and he was the only one that came up.

Take a second and consider why the butt boy would be considered the beta. What's the implication of the words?I thought buttboy just meant the difference between alpha and beta males? Buttboy being beta.
Not necessarily anything to do with sexuality.

Try "mika on morning joe" like is in the thread title. You'll get there.
Brown nosers aka buttboys?Take a second and consider why the butt boy would be considered the beta. What's the implication of the words?
I already got there when someone else explained to me who it was. Thanks though. Googling half a thread title to understand what's actually happening seems necessary though.Try "mika on morning joe" like is in the thread title. You'll get there.
Mika seems like she's on quaaludes most of the time, so who knows what she meant.Brown nosers aka buttboys?
I'm sure you guys are right that its a homophobic slur but is it not possible she meant it in another way? As in it has two meanings?
I honestly thought buttboy just meant you kiss ass.
literally in the title of OP. "Mika on morning joe"

I didn't know what Morning Joe is either and if I have to google half a thread title to begin to understand what the thread is about, then I think it could have been explained better.
Mmmh, not that Morning Joe is always classy or anything, but couldn't she have meant to have called him a PC version of "Ass clown" or something, and unwittingly ended using a homophobic word turn she might not know?
Never heard "buttboy" before myself.
It is. It means Pompeo does anything Trump tells him to do without question, which he does. Implying he's gay for Trump as if being gay is a negative is the problem some people have with the language.
Not directly related but it reminds me when my wife almost had a rage fit when our 7year old son told her "I'm gonna Fuck You Up!" ... and then she realized he was just jamin' on Uptown Funk on the radio, and she wasn't listening closely to the lyrics ("Uptown funk you up!").It does happen. When I was young, and didn't yet know what it meant, I accidentally used "hard on" in place of "hard up" in front of my parents and boy did that cause a tense few minutes.
Why even click the thread, then?well let's see, I don't know who Mika is (street fighter 5?), I didn't know what 'morning' was, I don't know who or what a Pompeo (pretty sure this was a mainstream radio song) is, and I have never heard of the phrase butt boy (I figured it was someone with a nice butt, but now I know I'm clearly mistaken).
Why even click the thread, then?
I'll give her the benefit of the doubt and assume she didn't know it was a slur or could be seen as that. I'm sure she'll make it right.
This is me as well, though when someone points it out it makes sense why it would be one. Luckily it was never really part of my lexicon to begin with.I thought butt boy just meant you always have your nose up someone's butt, aka brown nosing. No clue it was a gay slur.
There is nothing ambigious about the title. It gives ample amounts of context.lol silly me, I thought the OP would describe the events in the thread title. From here on out I'll ignore any threads that contain ambiguous headers.
