Electrolite: Okay, so maybe the “moron cooties” remark was a little over the top.
In the comments to this post, there are two gems, for historians and pop culture lovers alike:

* pay no attention to the men behind the cretin
For the origin of Avignon as a perjorative, I commend you to the Wikipedia. This one has been around awhile: I just haven’t seen it before today.
The other should require no explication.
