Urban Dictionary Posters Fact Check, Mock Kavanaugh’s Definition of ‘Devil’s Triangle’

 

Posters on the popular slang terminology website Urban Dictionary have begun to mockingly fact-check Supreme Court justice nominee Brett Kavanaugh’s definition of “devil’s triangle,” a term commonly used to refer to a threesome involving two men and one woman that the judge claimed was actually a drinking game played at parties.

When asked by Democrat Senator Sheldon Whitehouse about a reference to “devil’s triangle” made in Kavanaugh’s high school yearbook, the judge said it was a “drinking game” using “three glasses in a triangle.”

“It’s a quarters game,” Kavanaugh added.

Evidence supporting the judge’s definition of the term is pretty nonexistent, while “devil’s triangle” is commonly and historically defined as sexual intercourse between two men and one woman.

Urban Dictionary quickly hopped on the case of debunking Kavanaugh’s definition.

“A made up game of quarters with three cups arranged in a triangle,” the site’s second most popular definition of the term reads. “The rules are unknown because the inventor of the game, Brett Kavanaugh, could not explain them under oath.”

Another poster wrote, “Clearly a drinking game…with three glasses. Have you ever played Quarters? It’s like that, except two guys stick their penises into one woman.”

In a dialog box demonstrating how the term is used, the same poster added:

“Hey do you want to play Devils Triangle?
-Sure, how do you play?
Let’s get three glasses and fill them with beer. I like beer. Then we will give all three beers to a woman and stick our penises in her.
-Ffffffuck yeah.”

Another popular definition of the game poked fun at the possibility that Kavanaugh lied to Congress under oath during the “devil’s triangle” controversy: “Devils triangle can also be defined as a lie told under perjury when a belligerent white male feels cornered when confronted with his own disgusting behavior, most likely with the blessing of a patriarchal and misogynistic system.”
