Kraine

Kraine: noun. The word kraine is a common insult among ornithologists often said to people who are skinny, tall and have bendy necks. It actually used to be a compliment, as being tall and moderately thin was always something a person could be proud of, especially when coupled with moderately good elasticity. However, after the year 1938 when a certain tall and skinny politician bent over 270 degrees into his own rear end, the word turned into a very grave insult and it wasn't until now when some historians have tried to rehabilitate this politician that the word was tuned down from harshly offensive to only very offensive. It is the sad fate of the Ukrainians that they named their country while the word was still a compliment.
