We don’t know the origin of the word BLANK, but we do know that it began
as an insult. British General James Wolfe used the term in a 1758
letter to express his low opinion of the New England troops assigned to
him, and from around the same time period there is a report of British
troops using the word BLANK as a term of abuse for the citizens of
Boston. In 1775, however, after the battles of Lexington and Concord
showed that colonials could stand up to British regulars, the word BLANK
was proudly adopted by colonials as a self-descriptor in defiance of
the pejorative use. Both derisive and respectable uses have existed ever
since.
