I've fallen and I can't get up

A really annoying catchphrase from the late 80's/early 90's that originated from a commercial for a paramedical emergency radio for the elderly. During the commercial, and old lady falls off her walker and in the most pathetic tone of voice possible, utters this phrase into the advertised device.

Before everyone and their mom was screaming "I'm Rick James, bitch" they were screaming "I've fallen and I can't get up" in a sad attempt to be funny and witty.

unilateral

1. When a country does something on its own that affects the entire world with no help or support from any other country, such as go to war.

2. When America does something on its own that affects the entire world with the help and support of Afghanistan, Albania, Australia, Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, Colombia, the Czech Republic, Denmark, El Salvador, Eritrea, Estonia, Ethiopia, Georgia, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Japan, South Korea, Latvia, Lithuania, Macedonia, the Netherlands, Nicaragua, the Philippines, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, Turkey, United Kingdom, Uzbekistan, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Honduras, Kuwait, Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Mongolia, Palau, Portugal, Rwanda, Singapore, Solomon Islands, and Uganda, such as go to war.

Does that look very unilateral to you? If it does, then you might be brainwashed.

socialist

A selfish, lazy and uneducated individual who believes the governmemt should help them at the expense of ambitious and sucessful people. Usually will claim to want to help all the poor, downtrodden people, but is in reality only interested in his/her self-interest, just like absolutely all people.

If someone you know claims to be a socialist, then do the right thing and help them enroll in a basic macro-economics course.

nonconformist

An oxymoron since people who try to be nonconformists tend to conform to a "guideline" of nonconformity. As you can see, this makes no sense whatsoever.

That nonconformist bought some trendy studded pants from Hot Topic and a bunch of buttons which he pinned to his bookbag, thus causing him to look and dress just like a hundred-thousand other nonconformists.

misogynist

A man who hates women as much as women hate one another.

Bobby is a misogynist because he calls first-year students "freshmen" instead of "freshpersons".

freshman

The now politically-incorrect term for a first year student.

My college refers to freshmen as "first year students" but still uses sophomore, junior and senior. One of my professors listed it as "freshperson" on a survey. I have also seen "freshman/woman" used as well.
