cinema clitera 

An academic term for the genre of film colloquially known as chick flicks. The genre has three main sub-categories:

1. Classic fairytale - often presented in the guise of romantic comedy. Various thin plot lines, but always culminating in the girl marrying the rich, handsome guy - the 'handsome prince' architype. e.g. Bridget Jones' Diary, Notting Hill, Pretty Woman, and many, many more. This is the most common form of cinema clitera.

2. Reconcilation - with a female friend, sister, mother or daughter, with whom there as been a long-standing feud or alienation. Often ends with one of the lead protagonists dying of a 'fashionable' disease, such as leukemia or a brain tumour, shortly after the reconcilation. e.g. Beaches, Terms of Endearment.

3. Girlies together against the world - various plots but all centre around shared emotional trials and tribulations, often a mix of light weight comedy and schmaltz e.g. Steel Magnolias, Sex in the City.

Cistern Job

The act of removing the lid off the back of the toilet and planting a stool in the cistern to spite an ememy. The easiest way is for the perpetrator to perch with their feet on the toilet seat and poo directly into the cistern. Often seen as one step further than a 'reverse kanga' or 'crocodile skiddy' as everytime the victim attempts to flush the toilet to rid it of its contents it refills from the cistern with a cruel mix of poo and water. Particularly effective as it is often not noticable straight away as there is no actual poo in the bowl but fills up over time making it hard to find out who did it.
