The disappearance of the Uptons’ character from popular memory made room for speculation as to the origin of wog, and several false acronymic explanations developed to justify the term. The most common are westernized / worthy / wily / wonderful oriental gentleman or working on government service, this last supposedly stenciled on the shirts of Egyptian workers on the Suez Canal. Of course, these explanations are all false, with no evidentiary support. Ray Stantz (2009). The Real Ghostbusters - " Very Beast Friends" (1990) (DVD ts. 15:57-16:00). Time Life Entertainment. Ray says: "Home, home on the raaange --" Peter: I certainly, should play by the established rules of the Upside Down, but here’s the thing: we’re still learning what being from the Upside Down even means. I love that Stranger Things 2 is using such a cute 80s adventure movie trope (my best friend the monster) to deliver more information on the things that live in the Upside Down. This season, the mythology is getting heavy, and it’s a sign of quality that the show isn’t just having Dr. Badguy spew exposition. Using Dustin’s reptile and amphibian library research to understand Dart helps us as the audience see the creature firmly through human eyes, keeping an exciting element of the unknown in the proceedings, but still establishing rules to this dark fantasy. When the island starts to vanish, Peter likens the flooding to his parents' basement every spring. [22]

You sit glaring at me for ten minutes like—like that brute of a Golliwog I keep upstairs, and then you begin dozing over the fire for all the world like you’d just had a couple of ounces of food. And you expect me to say nothing. The clipped form wog never caught on in American speech, and golliwog dropped out of American speech as memories of the books and dolls faded. But both continue as racist slurs to this day in British speech to this day.There are many early references to the books and golliwogg dolls at the turn of the twentieth century, but it wasn’t long before golliwog, dropping the second terminal , began to be used as a term for a foreigner, especially a dark-skinned one. There is this reference which appears in a short story published in the Augusta Chronicle of 30 September 1901. Exactly what golliwog refers to here is lost to us today, but it’s certainly not complimentary: Peter Venkman (2009). The Real Ghostbusters - " Very Beast Friends" (1990) (DVD ts. 21:24-21:27).
