It's too far for Obama to walk and just out of reach of fat-ass yanks to float, when they're washed out to sea from U.S. beaches..

What do you call cigarettes "fags"?

fag (v.) "to droop, decline, tire," 1520s, apparently an alteration of flag in its verbal sense of "droop." Transitive sense of "to make (someone or something) fatigued" is first attested 1826. Related: Fagged; fagging.

fag (n.) British slang for "cigarette" (originally, especially, the butt of a smoked cigarette), 1888, probably from fag-end "extreme end, loose piece" (1610s), from fag "loose piece" (late 15c.), which is perhaps related to fag (v.).
