supaDISC's definitions
The most butchered punctuation mark in the English language. Apostrophes are used
1) to
indicate contractions,
2) to indicate possession (in some cases), and
3) VERY occasionally to denote a plural (where otherwise the meaning of the sentence would be unclear).
The use of an apostrophe in the contraction "it's", (which means "it is"), but not in "its", (which is a possessive) causes problems for many people who didn't pass third grade.

Incorrect: Screw you moran's. Go USA.
Incorrect: Its raining cat's and dog's.
Incorrect: Here come's the train. Grab it's cargo.
Correct: Don't go in that room.
Correct: The cat's litter box is dirty.
Correct: Mind your p's and q's.
(the above is one of the ONLY CORRECT USES OF AN APOSTROPHE TO DENOTE A PLURAL. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD IF YOU'RE UNSURE, JUST LEAVE THE APOSTROPHE OUT.)

Get the apostophe mug.The kind of lunch your dad might send you to school with, as opposed to a woman lunch that your mother makes. Man lunches, unfortunately, are paltry, awkward and poorly planned compared to their feminine counterparts. Scientists say this is because men's brains are missing a part that gives woman certain culinary sensibilities.
The quintessential man lunch is water, which contrary to popular belief, is not a food, crackers, a cheese sandwich and a banana, which are each, respectively, crushed by the water. Man lunches also sometimes have milk in a resealable container, which becomes lukewarm within minutes of being taken from the fridge and leaves a film of foul residue on the container that will never be completely washed out.
Man lunches are usually invoked in arguments about gay marriage.

Gay marriage threatens our communities, our families, and indeed our way of life. What child wants a man lunch?

Get the man lunch mug.Something or a group of things that follow no criteria or pattern. A word often misused by morons who don't know very many other words.
Correct: The decay of a radioactive isotope is random.
This is correct because nobody can predict exactly when the atom will decay. It actually doesn't follow a pattern.
Incorrect: Lol! Here r sum randome people I just met.
This is incorrect because the people have been chosen by a number of criteria: they are people that happen to be closeby and people who are willing to talk to you.
Incorrect: LoL here R sum randome words that I am thinking of.
The words are not random because you have specifically chosen them on the criteria that they are "suprirsing" or "unusual".

Get the random mug.The hot new golf simulations from CrapTec that often shows up in misspelled google searches for "gulf war", whose titles eerily reflect the situations of the actual gulf wars.

Get the golf war mug.A deadly mammoth-esque creature that has enlonged tusks that are serrated and miniscule at the tip. They head straight for the urethra, pulling until it is ripped out of the victim's body. The urethrelephant then proceeds to hoarde the urethras for later eating.Commonly seen in Lord of the Rings movies.

Get the urethrelephant mug.My uncle said John Kerry was a war hero and would make an excellent commander in chief in comparison to George W. Bush, who dodged service in 'Nam and snorted cocaine. What a stupid liberal.

Get the stupid liberal mug.The little-known tallest mountain in Arizona, which, contrary to popular belief, is actually taller than Humphrey's Peak, but debate continues about whether or not the cactus counts as part of the mountain's height.

Get the Cactus Rock mug.
