You slackjawed pickletits.

You slopebrowed weaseldicks.

They're two candidates for the Name-Calling Hall of Fame and show just how pissed off Chris Kluwe is. No one straddles the disparate worlds of pro sports and video games like Kluwe, a retired NFL punter, longtime gaming aficionado and popular Internet personality. Now, with a sexism scandal called GamerGate brewing in the gaming world, Kluwe has had enough.

That's why he wrote a scathing column this week for The Cauldron called, not subtly, "Why #Gamergaters Piss Me The F*** Off." It was in that column that Kluwe leveled those legendary insults and picked apart the confusing, slightly complicated and mostly off-putting GamerGate movement.

And if, like us, you were wondering just what a "pickletit" is, here's your answer straight from the horse's mouth.

"Imagine a tit shaped like a pickle, just all knobby and sticking out," Kluwe said. "It's a word that just has a good feel to it as it rolls off the tongue, right?" Indeed.

If you aren't up to speed on GamerGate, here's how Kluwe himself described it for Mashable in a phone interview on Friday: "GamerGate is ostensibly about ethics in gaming journalism, but in reality its misogynistic core is tainting whatever aims the actual movement is trying to achieve."

The ongoing GamerGate scandal was sparked by a blog post by the ex-boyfriend of a female video-game developer under the auspices of saying reporters who write about gaming have lax ethics. GamerGate has been more defined, however, by angry threats made by male gamers against females who enter the conversation.

Feminist GamerGate critic Anita Sarkeesian recently canceled a speaking event at a Utah university after an anonymous person threatened her and the school, promising "the deadliest school shooting in American history." Other female critics have had personal information posted online without their permission — a practice called "doxxing" by gamers.

Yet Kluwe said "no one's come after me" since his scathing GamerGate takedown published this week. And Kluwe considers that very telling.

"I called them literally every name I could think of," he said. "And nope, no one's come after me. But Felicia Day wrote a very heartfelt blog post about how all this has made her feel and 15 minutes later, she gets doxxed in the comments. If nothing else, that shows the true core of this so-called movement. It's very much a gender-based thing — there's no way around the fact that their main targets are prominent women who have been involved in gaming."

Why have women in gaming become targets? Kluwe compared it to his experience as a player in NFL locker rooms for eight seasons.

"I see some parallels in that gaming is very much a boys' club and there's this idea that you can't be considered a hardcore gamer unless you fit a certain description," he said. "The parallel is that the football locker room is also a boys' club with a lot of misogyny. But think it has less to do with just similarities between NFL and gaming cultures, and is more indicative of a bigger problem in society at large — which is plain misogyny."

Kluwe held an Ask-Me-Anything session on Reddit after his GamerGate article came out. Hopefully, he said, it was useful in showing gamers concerned about ethics in the video-game press — which Kluwe calls a legitimate gripe — that the GamerGate movement has been corrupted beyond repair.

"The problem is that a lot of GamerGate moderates, if you could call them that, refuse to disassociate themselves from the bigger movement," he said. "Any discussion about ethics is going to be fundamentally tainted when most of the people in that movement do not behave ethically."

But most of all, he sees GamerGate's attacks on women — much like the NFL's ongoing domestic violence scandal — as smaller pieces of a bigger cultural problem with misogyny.

"We can try to address this symptom," he said, "but until we get to the root causes of it, similar things are just going to keep happening over and over in different arenas."
