Definition of “monger”

It’s not unusual to hear “monger” misused to mean “buyer.” In fact a monger is a seller (e.g., the Bible refers to sellers of fish as fishmongers). Today the word has a negative connotation, which is why its modern use is pretty much limited to the likes of “warmonger,” “rumormonger,” and, as to the matter at hand, “whoremonger.” A hobbyist is not a whoremonger. That would be a pimp.

...I did look look it up once though because of it's use here by many as preferred term for hobbyist.
 I don't remember now which dictionary but one of the many definitions given was about purchasing not selling.

Juat Google whoremonger and see what you find, here I'll do it for you.

If it's good enough for the UrbanDictionary, the FreeDictionary.com Dictionary.com et al. It's good enough for me.

Not to mention it beats the fuck out of calling oneself a "hobbyist" What a lame term for someone who fucks hookers.

I'm charging you a per-use royalty on that word. My hooker math tells me that you now owe me at least 8 pennies. Or if you want a discount, you can just pay me a dime, and we'll call it even. You can also pay me a quarter and the word is yours for the night. I only ask that you refrain from using it more than three times. All of these options are more than fair, don't you agree?

Is it better than the SPOTY?  Are hookers involved?

I'm up for TER Asshole of the Month.  I'm waiting to see if I'm named for April.

Need that press to keep up the illusion

Conan careth not.  Now let's see if GaG can tell a pedagogue from a pedophile.  Conan doubts he can

But I will stipulate that you are the funniest, snidest HookerPoster who's been here since Rasha left. I am pining for that fine lady.

As a monger....as in Flash fucked Dale Arden on the planet Mongo.  

I think he was also fucking Ming's daughter...she was pretty hot too  ;)

And the thing with Zarkov...well it's a long fucking ride to the planet Mongo...go figure.
