bunkum

Etymology
From, from “speaking to (or for) , North Carolina”, a county in North Carolina named for. In 1820, Felix Walker, who represented the county in the U.S. House of Representatives, rose to address the question of admitting Missouri as a free or slave state, his first attempt to speak on the subject after nearly a month of solid debate, right before the vote was to be called. To the exasperation of colleagues, he began a long and wearisome speech, explaining that he was speaking not to Congress but "to Buncombe." He was ultimately shouted down by his colleagues, though his speech was published in a Washington paper and his persistence made "buncombe" (later respelled "bunkum") a synonym for meaningless political claptrap and later for any kind of nonsense, at first only in the jargon of Washington and then in common usage (see discussion on talk page).

Noun

 * 1)  Senseless talk; nonsense; a piece of nonsense.
 * 2)  Bombastic political posturing or oratorical display designed only for show or public applause.
 * 1)  Bombastic political posturing or oratorical display designed only for show or public applause.

 * Here is a question that has come up before with arguably SoPpy terms: How should an ESL learner know which of the many senses of is the one to choose for understanding the term ? I think sense 6, but that may not be obvious – and, moreover, that sense does not impart the persistence of s. Therefore I’m leaning towards Keep. (BTW, the somewhat figurative sense for a group of politicians – which I think could also be high-level executives or officials in a non-political organization – ought to be a sense on its own, rather than being lump together with criminal gangs, which tend to be more structured and have a longer lifespan.)  --Lambiam 14:29, 30 January 2019 (UTC)
 * If quality of definition were the criteria, I would say delete. As it is now, it looks like it is defining a Hollywood prison gang. An internet search for "what is a prison gang" would give better answers. -Mike (talk) 03:13, 26 March 2019 (UTC)

Umm, this picture is messing up the layout of the article. The translation section is cut off by the category section! The picture doesn't even show a hickey anyway. — Hippietrail 00:33, 26 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Hiya Hippietrail. I moved the picture but if you don't like it for another reason just cut it and toss. It looks better on the right side, but as for showing a real live hickey, I don't think we need be real scientific about this ;-)) --HiFlyer 00:39, 26 Mar 2005 (UTC)

 * Thanks HiFlyer. It's not messed up now. — Hippietrail 01:10, 26 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Note: This may or may not pertain to the current English usage of the word hickey, but the surname "Hickey" is derived from the Gaelic "O'Hiddeky", meaning "healer". The O'Hiddeky's were a clan of Irish healers and scholars. The National Museum in Dublin has The Book of the O'Hickey's which is a book of medicine, or what constituted medicine in eleventh century Ireland.
