With the unsubstantiated allegations against Brett Kavanaugh continuing to pile up, some of his critics have zeroed in on a new gotcha on the SCOTUS nominee: the meaning of the words “boof” and “Devil’s Triangle” in his high school yearbook.
Even though the words “boof” and “Devil’s Triangle” may very well have had an entirely different meaning to a bunch of D.C. suburban teens in the early-’80s, Kavanaugh’s critics are promoting the narrative on social media that Kavanaugh lied under oath regarding the meaning of those terms. According to these critics, the “Devil’s Triangle” is not a drinking game, as Kavanaugh asserted during his testimony, but rather sex acts involving two guys and one girl; “Boof” refers to, well, something very NC-17; “Renate Alumnus” really was code for “I tapped that.”
