| 2. | Business Image Management | ||
|
A class common to most high schools, which, when signed up for sounds like it would be hella fun, but turns out to be hard as shit. In these classes you learn almost nothing practical, and spend most of your time looking up definitions on urbandictionary, or writing them. These classes suck, you don't learn anything, and you most likely will fail. The programs are boring and uncreative, such as making a fucking mountain *yawn*. "Man, I just got out of my Business Image Management class, it was so fucking boring."
"Yeah dude I know what you mean, I failed that ho last semester because the programs suck, and are impossible to use. Fuck that class" |

|
One of the oldest and most advanced piece of computer software available for purchase to the general public. It is best classified in the "edutainment" genre, but truly is much more. With a simple joystick and keyboard, one can be transported into a world of realistic aeroplane simulation, similar to that found in professional flight training centers.

Originally released by Microsoft for the IBM-pc in 1982, it is one of the oldest software products in history. Every few years, Microsoft updates the program to comply with the newest computers and garnishes it with the latest graphics and additions. The current version, 2004's "A Century of Flight" boasts countless aircraft, flights, and locales. In fact, the technology has become so advanced that users can fly in the actual regional weather conditions found in their chosen locations, all thanks to a quick download from the net before each flight. It is also one of the easiest products to install and use. There are no confusing installation procedures or awkward game menus. In literally less than ten mouse clicks, users can install the game, pick a flight, and get placed square in the middle of Microsoft's most famous Chicago adventure. While many gamers complain the game causes boredom, one must realize these people are usually hyperactive teenagers - not the target demographic for the simulator genre. It can take years before one becomes fully proficient with all the features, controls, and locations within this ... |

City of approximately 146,000 residents, and counting. Located in the center of Orange County.

America's most successful master-planned community. City is comprised of "villages," which are residential areas with common architectural themes, as well as commercial and industrial areas. Irvine Company, which still owns most of the land in the city, likes to say that villages were meant to be "jewels" and University of California, Irvine (UCI) the "pendant"; however, in "Where We Are Now: Notes from Los Angeles," essayist/L.A. Times commentator D.J. Waldie states that villages were also meant to dilute residents' political power and allow the Irvine Company to do as it pleased, "with the compliant oversight of County government." This attempt backfired in 1971, when residents revolted by incorporating the city and taking control of its future. Irvine development now much slower than 35 years ago, under "Master Plan." Middle to upper-middle class. Excellent public schools, thanks in part to local charitable foundation. City school district receives lowest per-capita funding of any district in California, but donation offset allows schools to maintain extensive art, music, science, and athletics programs.

| 6. | Boremont | ||
|
The most boring, uncultured, ghetto, while at the same time redneck, little town known to mankind that doesn't deserve to call itself Texas, because it has absolutely nothing to do with Texas culture and might as well be Louisiana.
Also has the worst school system in the country, which isn't saying much, considering that American public schools suck anyway. "I'm sick of Beaumont ISD canceling all the gifted programs and discriminating against white people."
"Yea, let's move to Lumberton, I'm sick of Boremont." |

| 7. | DIF Banners | ||
|
DIF Banners AKA Down-In-Front Banners: are the banners and pop ups that have taken over television programs and movies. The term comes from when a person starts shouting "Down In Front" during a movie, because someone keeps standing up and interrupting the movie. These banners started early in 2000 and have continued to this day. These types of banners and pop ups used to be very small, but they have now become so large that some of them almost cover the entire TV screen. The first notable example of DIF Banners came from the FOX reality TV show Joe millionaire. During the show, and other FOX shows, a man would be seen running from several woman wearing wedding dresses. This banner would take up the bottom-half of the screen. A more recent example of this can be seen on VH1, where giant banners are used to promote their other VH1 programs. Brooke Hogan will spin into the side-half of the screen; play with her cell phone, wave; then spin back out. These banners are not only annoying, but they interfere by covering up subtitles and other descriptions. Mike Judge pointed DIF banners out in his movie Idiocracy. The movie takes place 500 years into the future. By this time DIF Banners have become so large that when Dax Shepard is watching a show called "Ow! My Balls!", he can only watch the show in a tiny window in the middle of the TV screen. The rest of the screen on his Giant-Screen TV is used for advertisements. While this was just a joke; if the trend continues with DIF B... more...
