clique's picks

The clique's picks are people who are chosen to run for an office (the picks) by members of an inner circle (the clique) typically in a school setting. These candidates often have no actual accredidation and simply win by means of a popularity contest.

The elections for class officers drew many qualified contenders but once the clique's picks joined the race an election wasn't needed.

Mannyism

Bashing and trash-talk that will eventually get you fired, kicked out or somehow evicted which was initiated by the person who ends up packing up. Refers to Manny Ramirez and his eviction from the Boston Red Sox to the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Harvard student: This school doesn't deserve a student like me! I love Boston and I love the people but Harvard doesn't deserve me!

Admissions Director: Well then either quit your Mannyisms or get into this cardboard box and we'll ship you off to Brown then.

-Rockstar Energy Drink (black can)
-Sugar Free Rockstar Energy Drink (white can)
-Rockstar Juiced (orange can)

The star in place of the A is complete marketing also. Not only does it enhance the overall appearance of the line of drinks but it also appeals to 1337 speakers.

Its slogan is "Party like a rockstar".

Ugh, another dreary Monday. I really need a Rockstar.

3 hour rule

The 3 hour rule says that while in Boston if you have no plans you have absolutely no idea where you'll end up in 3 hours from the point where you no longer had any plans.

It's 10PM and I have no plans... I'll just wait for the 3 hour rule to kick in.

South Beach Diet

The South Beach Diet is a 3 phase diet created by cardiologist Arthur Agatston from Miami (hence the name of the diet) which stresses the idea of eating "good carbs and good fats" and staying away from "bad carbs and bad fats".

The idea is that you will develop a better insulin resistance which will help you keep your metabolism in shape. It is highly advised in the diet that people stay away from saturated fats and trans fats.

There are certain foods that are permitted and certain foods that are advised against. The diet has therefore come under fire for being too restrictive and not examining more foods to be placed in these 2 categories.

The South Beach Diet is the main competitor of Weight Watchers. The 2 programs have had bitter battles for participants including advertising wars, claims against each other, boasting of their accomplishments and much more. For these reasons some former followers of these diets have resorted to diet pills, some of the most dangerous diet solutions on the market.

Her diet was going well, she was on the South Beach Diet and couldn't stand the foods being practically rationed but she was losing weight.
