Al Jourgensen

Born 1958, a musician known best perhaps for forming the legendary Chicago Industrial Metal act Ministry, as well as writing most (if not all) of the music and being the only consistant member throughout the band's 27-year history. Jourgensen is also in charge of other bands such as 1000 Homo DJs, Revolting Cocks (often shortened as "RevCo") and Lard with former Dead Kennedys frontman Jello Biafra.

Jourgensen is a noted hater of the Bush family, his favorite targets being former presidents George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush, with several of Ministry's songs being critical of the way they've run the country.
I really hope Al Jourgensen organizes a Ministry reunion tour in the future.

White Sox

Chicago's American League and south side MLB team (as opposed to the Cubs, who play on the North Side). Often regarded as the "second team of the second city" in spite of:

*More world series titles (three to the Cubs' two) as well as the advantage of actually having won a title in the last 100 (or rather 105) years.

*A statistically better record over the last 25 years (i.e. more winning seasons than losing)

*A newer, nicer stadium that helps provide a happy, fun, comfortable ballgame experience (Wrigley may have more history and outer beauty, but it's a different story inside the ballpark)

*Fans who, though not above taunting and harassing, will actually respect players and fans of the opposing team (unlike Cubs fans, who enjoy turning aggressive on innocent fans and players when things don't go their way)
When the White Sox lose, they admit it was the result of bad playing by their team or much better playing by the other, and look to build a better team from that point regardless.

When the Cubs lose, they blame some ridiculous "curse" or even one of their own fans and let yet another defeat become more and more part of the team's history and daily life

The Deep Web

Describes low key sites on the web or unknown content on a well known site that is weird in nature and/or extremely hard, if not impossible, to understand why such content even exists.
The term curiosity killed the cat applies well with this term-and let me tell you, the deep web will show that not only was the cat killed, but subject to things I could be sent to jail for if I were to describe them on a site like UD.

My friend ventured into the deep web on an acid trip, and now thinks Chim Chim from Speed Racer is out to rape and kill him.

hidden comedy

A movie made and advertised as an action or disaster movie with more comedy dialogue than serious, making people wonder if it's supposed to be funny or if the script writers failed. Movies like these are usually critically panned but box office successes.
Deep Impact is a good example of a hidden comedy. It seems like a serious film about the end of the world and the survival of humanity, though quite a bit of dialogue sounds more like it came from a Mike Judge film.

Lame Duck Film

A theatrical movie, usually a major blockbuster, that runs past it's designated release season (i.e. summer releases playing into fall, holiday movies in January or later, etc.) to the point where only a few theaters are showing them anymore, and there are usually less than ten people in the audience, and chances are most of them already saw it during it's initial release period.
Jane: Hey you wanna catch that new superhero flick this weekend?

Bob: I don't know, the theaters will be awfully crowded since it'll be just coming out. Let's wait a month or so until it becomes a lame duck film.

Big Black

Influential Punk Rock/Noise Rock band from Evanston, Il (a small city/community bordering Chicago to the North). Lasted from 1981-1987, released the two albums "Atomizer" and "Songs about Fucking". Often considered fathers of Industrial Rock. Noted for featuring Steve Albini.
Big Black are the 2nd best band from Chicago, losing the top spot only to Ministry.

Dead Guitar era

A stretch of time in popular music where modern Rock bands reduce guitar use in their music in favor of keyboards and electronics. Usually lasts about 3-5 years. This does not mean guitar oriented music doesn't receive radio airplay or that the bands in question remove the instrument from their music altogether.
The time this definition was written could be considered a dead guitar era, with the rise in prominence of bands like Imagine Dragons.
