Shortened form of promenade. Defined fully in the previous 10 some entries.
Hey Billy-Sue, would you be so kind as to be my date to the prom? I promise I'll take a shower if you do.

Legalized prostitution taken to the extreme. You take a girl out for the most expensive date she will ever see and bank on the off chance you'll get some.
FACT: The average prom costs $800 for a couple to attend.
PROBABILITY: It will end poorly.

I know lots of cool college guys and they all wish they never went to thier prom.

1) Prom in the USA is a big event at the end of the last year at school. The general idea for most students is to get as drunk as possible and lose your virginity, possibly, but not necessarily, to the person who is your date. Anyone who is going to be able to handle the real world will either hate the prom or just won't go.

2) In the UK prom is a similar event, but much lower-scale; ie. held in the school or a nasty village hall in the middle of nowhere. The basic principle is the same: terrible music, a shoddy yearbook, cool kids being even more horrible and shallow than usual and humiliation for the lame kids. if you have any intentions of losing your virginity after the UK prom, you are very much mistaken. The likelyhood is that you either go with a friend of the opposite sex because neither of you could get a real date, or you get a real date who ends up leaving with your slutty friend. The food gives you diarrhea, or you puke from too much cheap alcohol, or (if you are a girl) you will get your period and everyone will see. The night ends with an after party usually, where somebody's house gets trashed- if anyone is going to lose their virginity at all, it'll happen here. Classy.
1) OMG, I like sooo can't wait until prom night!

2)Cool kid: Urgh, do you seriously think he's gonna want to go to prom with you?
Lame kid: No. Hence me not going, seeing as you're just going to have sex with him to spite me anyway.

The day my girlfriend dumped me in the morning, and that night I got drunk and maybe got chlamydia from a swim-team whore. The sad part is, this happens to many of us.
"Damn, prom was fun. I sure hope nobody finds out about who I fucked, though."

Get the prom mug.
The night in high school involving the loss of a lot of money and a lot of virginity. Underclass prom ho's agree to go with social pariahs just to get there, and in the end, it's just another awful high school dance. Prom also usually results in an epidemic of eating disorders among girls. Low-level, parent-approved prostitution: the girls get dressed up, the guys pay for everything, they get them off. Popular post-prom destinations include the shore or cheap hotel rooms.
I'm a total loser, but I can get the hottest freshman to go to prom with me!

A high school dance which is often viewed as a defining moment in people's lives. Unfortunately for the prom king and queen, the actual defining moment is usually the reverse of what really happens.
At my high school, the captain of the football team and the head cheerleader were prom king and queen. Ten years later, the prom queen now weighs 300 pounds, has ten kids and is on welfare, the prom king is a delivery driver for Home Depot, and the guy he used to stuff in the locker, who didn't even go to prom, made a million bucks off some MMORPG he concocted right out of high school, lives in Beverly Hills and is banging a starlet.
