tiny heart syndrome
n.— «They found the WMD. Saddam had them in his arse. No I thought the joke could have been made funnier. In bad taste? Well if you are a queer with teeny tiny heart syndrome. Our military bitched for 12 years for a war, they got one, a good one too, so I don’t think it was a bad joke.» —“Bush takes heat for WMD jokes” by Whitey MilitaryForums.co.uk Mar. 28, 2004.
