b batteries

During the period of the pre-transistor era, (45's-60's), portable vacuum tube radio receivers were produced requiring the use of 2 or 3 separate batteries. One of these batteries, the "a" battery, powered the filaments of the radio tubes. The other, called the "b" battery, powered the anode (plate) and cathode circuitry.

The radio doesn't play because the a batteries are dead but the b batteries are fully charged.

Serial Monogamist

Someone who jumps from one relationship immediately into another one.

Serial monogamists can not stand to be alone and often suffer from vast commitment and insecurity issues.

Because they jump into relationships immediately after the previous one has ended, serial monogamists typically don't take the time to reflect on their behavior or why their previous relationships failed; thus, they end up making the same relationship mistakes over and over again.

Person 1: Damn, Dustin already has a new girlfriend?! It's only been two weeks since he broke up with his fiance! I think he's a sociopath.

Person 2: No, he's a serial monogamist...
