1950s father

A 1950s father is a dad who is not involved with thier child or children, even though they all live under the same roof. A 1950s father does not play, spend time or is emotionally involved with thier child. A 1950s father is typically stoic and distant to ones child, and are typically work-a-holics. The phrase comes from a generation of males (pre 1960s) that were raised to hid thier emotions, because it would seem unmanlike. 1950s father reley on thier wife to do all the parenting.

My friend's dad is not really involved in his life. He is what you call a 1950s father.

Toilet Sponge.

Take a sponge soak it in a water and flower solution. Then roll the sponge real tight and tie a peice of string or twine around it. Wait for the sponge to dry and then go find a toilet. Once you find a toilet you cut the string and push down on the flush lever. During the process of flushing, throw the sponge into the toilet. The sponge will get into the pipe and expand, cuasing the toilet to back up.

You can substitute the flower and water solution with hairspray.

Toilet Sponge is a janitors worst nightmare.

Mentors

A porno metal band that sounds like Black Sabbath meets Hustler magazine that formed in the late 70s. Originally fronted by a bald bearded beer gut voclist/drummer guy known as El Duce. Who later got ran over by a train and killed back in April 1997. Also in the band was Dr Heathen Scum on bass and Sickie Wifebeater on guitar. The Mentors biggest claim to fame was back in 1985 when somebody during the Tipper Gore's PMRC congressional hearings read the lycics to "Golden Showers", from the album "You Axed For It".

Dr Heathen Scum still continues the Mentors band with a whole new crew.

A gawker or rubbernecker that stairs at disasters, accidents or people in the process of misfortune. For example there is a car accident on a street and a looky lou (or looky loose) will ride by, slow down and turn thier head to check out the scene. A looky lou will also be one of those people that are always there to see fire fighters or EMTs in action when they are in thier neighborhood.

See all those looky lous checking out those fire fighters fighting that house fire.

Tri Met

Tri Met is a bus and light rail transit system of the Portland Oregon metro area.

Tri Met is great for getting around inside Portland city limits, but service really sucks in the suburbs of Beaverton, Tigard, Tualatin and Hillsboro. Especially if you have to commute to and from work from places like Portland to a suburb or suburb to suburb.

FTRA

Freight Train Riders of America.

Probley to the most mysterious gang and hardest to track in the United States. The FTRA started in Montana during the mid seventies buy a bunch of white racist alcahloic speed freaks in a bar. They are a bunch of train hoppin hobos who move methamphetemines along the rail lines. They have been known to intimidate and kill other train hoppin hobos and homeless people in homeless camps. The FTRA could be responsible for some 50 plus unsolved murders along the rail lines in the United States.

Members of the FTRA have been spotted in all lower 48 states, but operate mainly west of the Mississippi river. Where ever there are railroad tracks members of the FTRA could be or have been there.

The FTRA are some mean motherfuckers. For people who like to hop trains around the country, all I can say is; beware.

The Hitler Channel

Sometimes the TLC or the History Channel will have World War 2 marathon weekend or have sizable block of time during the day devoted to WW2. When that happens, there is usually a ton of stuff on Hitler or Hitler related topics. The History Channel then turns into the Hitler Channel.

I was watching the History channel and they had a ton of crap on World War 2 and Adolf Hitler. There times I feel like they should call TLC the Hitler Channel.
