CapAlert

A website run by a deranged minister (sometimes referred to as the CapA-Loser) who rates movies with a system he claims is "infallible" but often turns out the wrong score based on the fact that he doesn't really pay attention to the films he rates.

No one died in Lilo & Stitch, so the CapAlert score on the page for that movie cannot possibly be correct.

MSG

A preservative sometimes used in frozen food, particularly western-style Chinese cuisine.
Can cause headaches or other symptoms in some consumers.

I only eat Chinese food fresh at restaurants, because the MSG in the frozen meals makes my head throb all night.

Jed

A poor mountaineer who barely kept his family fed,
But one day as he was shooting at some food,
Up from the ground came a bubbling crude. (Oil, that is. Black gold. Texas tea.)

Jed was the main character of The Beverly Hillbillies.

Frodis

Slang term for marijuana, coined by Micky Dolenz (of the Monkees) in the late 1960s.

Micky used to tell kids that "Frodis is cool", and the kids had no clue what he meant, so they just agreed.
