When you're happily drinking with friends and rest your eyes for a second at the local pub, and suddenly wake up to find yourself sprawled across the steps of your house or in some alley in the middle of nowhere, then you my friend have just taken a ride in the beer taxi.

Get the beer taxi mug.At its core, religion is adherence to a code of beliefs. Often bashed by evangelical atheists who don't understand that their belief in no god is itself a religion.
Also note that general religion or faith is not the same thing as organized religion. Organized religion is, theologically, man's interpretation of what God wants. For example, Christianity is a belief in God and Jesus (see the Bible for more specifics), and the organized religion of Catholocism (later, the Protestant faiths) was created to 'bring God to the people.'
Most faiths say basically the same thing (that there was one loving God, a flood, some prophets and some other stuff) but a lot of organized religions have been twisted into an excuse for people to kill each other (if theres one thing humans love more than killing each other, its doing it for a greater cause).

Get the religion mug.See cult, scam and retarded. Basically the religion (har har) of Scientology says that some aliens did some shit a long time ago and that is why people are unhappy assholes. Founded by writer L. Ron Hubbard after he started taking his own books a little bit too seriously (or just got greedy, who knows).
If you pay them you get some devices and stuff that are supposed to purify you, and move you up the 'chain of command' until you get to join some sort of secret inner circle and plot how to take money away from other dumbasses. They didnt even add most of the alien shit until a bunch of people gave enough money to get promoted to the 'pure' stage and still werent happy.
Very popular with celebrities and other amoral rich people because the basic tenet is you can buy your way into heaven without any of the stipulations most other religions put on that, like not being a hedonistic, backstabbing little bitch.

Get the scientology mug.Popular bastardization of Maxis' classic SimCity series that effectively lets one play God in a small community. Popular with mild-mannered middle aged women and perverts, but for different reasons. Though many applaud Maxis' incredible success with the series others see it (and the subsequent abandonment/assimilation of SimCity) as blasphemy.
Oh Belinda, let me tell you about this most wonderful little neighborhood I've built at our next Tupperware party.
Sup lads I made those three dudes do it in the bathroom.

Get the The Sims mug.Yet another example of France fucking up and the US riding in to bail their sorry asses out. Unfortunately for them, it didn't work out as well as the World Wars and the US got a bloody nose. Statistically the war went relatively well for America, but gross political mismanagement and the mass media's attempts to force public opinion against the war crippled the military's efforts and America ultimately had to pull out. Basically, the Vietnam War was lost in America, not in Vietnam.
The USA could have easily won the Vietnam War by playing fast and hard, but worthless politicians kept them on such a tight leash they could only hope to tickle North Vietnam and only after being punched in the face. Or we could have returned de Gaulle's favor and told the damn frogs to fuck off in the beginning and spared ourselves the whole experience.

Get the vietnam war mug.To be so wrapped up in your own Kool-Aid agenda that you have no clue that you are really talking out of your ass. The word was invented by pundit Joe Klien in a rant about how Matt Drudge sucks, but the part of the original article he quoted to support his case actually validated the Drudge headline so Klien was clearly referring to himself.
Did you catch that Senator on TV the other night going on about how earmarks are bad but his own pet projects were special? How dumbolic.

Get the dumbolic mug.Soldier who is trained to jump out of perfectly good airplanes, for the purpose of inserting in enemy territory away from the heavy defenses around national borders and the front lines.
Paratroopers are pretty helpless during the airdrop, but their strength is in putting force in an area that isn't expecting it or prepared to react.
