Answer 5

. ginger



A ginger is a person with red hair.

All previous entries can only be explained by the extreme likelihood that they were written by mentally-handicapped and racist children, who walked in on their mothers having extra-marital intercourse with red-haired men. Recently, magazines such as tatler, vogue, and numerous newspapers have heralded this the age of 'the ginger' and have called it the new blonde. Such articles published a list of numerous celebrities who have dyed their hair red as part of the trend.

Damian Lewis, Nicole Kidman, Lindsay Lohan, Phillip Seymour-Hoffman are all what would be called a 'ginger'

This list does not include celebrities who have recently begun dying their hair red as part of the 'new-blonde' redhead resurgence.

6. Ginger



The lowest form of human existence, Gingers are light-skinned creatures with red hair and a plethora of freckles. Gingers are god-less bastards who are born without souls and are unable to go outside during times when the sun is out. Anyone who does not hold a deep hatred for Gingers must either be a Ginger-lover, a Ginger themselves, or brainwashed by the pro-Ginger propaganda put out by the Bush administration to cover up 9/11... I digress. A Ginger without freckles is commonly referred to as a "Day Walker". Day Walkers are capable of being outside while the sun is out, unlike Gingers, which makes them an even bigger threat to society. Ginger and Day Walkers must be stopped, the fate of the world as we know it depends on it.

Tommy: Hey, would you like to come outside with us and play?
Ginger: I'm sorry, I can't, the sun will burn my freckled skin and cause me to die.
Tommy: ******
