To leave your pain in the ass, sick, and possibly demented dad at the hospital, hoping he'll get admitted and out of your hair.

Hampden-Sydney is an all male school located in southern Virginia. WASPs dominate the rural 500+ acre campus. Men come to HSC to earn an education, but not just any education. An education that prepares each student for leadership and sucess in every sense of the word. Sucess in the financial, social, and athletic realms of life. The atmosphere at HSC has been compared to that of a private Country Club. The major difference between HSC and a Country Club is that the students who pay an enourmous amount of money to attend the school often have little power concerning legal and social affairs in the community. The corrupt board, administration, and faculty use the students to their advantage for their own self interests. This has often been said to be one of the only negative aspects of the community; however, this is a very big negative. Honor and tradition come with the price of a corrupt group of adults in power. If students had more of a voice, this community would be ideal for any WASP of the south east. The party scene is dominated by a variety drugs and alcohol. Women come to the school searching for their future six figure man. The key word here is searching. Good luck women. If this schools corrupt minority would let up just a hair, this would be the ideal community of rich, athletic, honorable, and scholarly gentelmen of the south.

The basis of Ottoman rule in Albania was a feudalmilitary system of landed estates, called timars, which were awarded to military lords for loyalty and service to the empire. As Ottoman power began to decline in the 18th century, the central authority of the empire in Albania gave way to the local authority of autonomy-minded lords. The most successful of these lords were three generations of pashas of the Bushati family, who dominated most of northern Albania from 1757 to 1831, and Ali Pasa Tepelenë of Janina (now Ioánnina, Greece), a colourful Oriental-type despot who ruled over southern Albania and northern Greece from 1788 to 1822. These pashas created separate states within the Ottoman state until they were overthrown by the sultan.
After the fall of the pashas, in 1831 Turkey officially abolished the timar system. In the wake of its collapse, economic and social power passed from the feudal lords to private landowning beys and, in the northern highlands, to tribal chieftains called bajraktars, who presided over given territories with rigid patriarchal societies that were often torn by blood feuds. Peasants who were formerly serfs now worked on the estates of the beys as tenant farmers.
Ottoman rule in Albania remained backward and oppressive to the end. In these circumstances, many Albanians went abroad in search of careers and advancement within the empire, and an unusually large number of them, in proportion to Albania's population, ...

1) Blissfully Ignorant Bastard. Someone who is ignorant by conscious choice. They love being duped. In Orwellian terms, they instinctively engage in crimestop. a.k.a. yuppie, elitist, fluoride-head

2) Someone who baths themselves in trivial chatter, mindless debate and overconsumption, and will uniformly reject any information that they don’t want to believe, because if properly digested, analyzed and determined to be true, they would be permanently disenchanted by their latest gizmo, video game and/or TV show, and be forced to feel a real emotion - i.e. anger towards tyranny, rage against the corporate machine, etc.

3) Someone who by their own admission doesn’t have all the facts but happily boasts their callow opinion, yet refuses to consider any real facts or another side of the story.

4) NOT a racial slur similar; it is applied without any ethnic background consideration.

Common blisstard phrases - “You just need to be more positive.” “Yes we can - ignore reality.” “I don’t listen to ugly people.” “Strong emotions don’t please others.”

bicker (n): A three-day rite of passage held annually at Princeton University, during which (mostly) Sophomores indirectly compete with each other to gain entry into one of the University’s prestigious exclusive Eating Clubs (Ivy, Cottage, Tiger Inn, Cap & Gown, Tower). Though there is a general spirit of camaraderie among the Sophomores during this time, it is well known that each is vying for an ultimately limited number of spots and must thus outshine the others in the eyes of the upperclassmen club members in order to be accepted.

bicker (v) 1: To prostrate oneself before the members of one of Princeton’s selective Eating Clubs, for the purpose of gaining admission. Bickering typically involves extensive interaction with club members in an attempt to impress them, along with a willingness to submit to various hazing rituals. To do so, the goal of moving up the social hierarchy must be held as a higher priority than dignity.

bicker (v) 2: To examine potential future members of an exclusive Eating Club in order to decide whether to grant them admission. Typically used to describe individual interactions between a club member and a Sophomore.

Before, describing the world of Baltimore (Baltimore Prep/North Baltimore) it is important to make several key descriptions about the physical and geographical layout of Maryland and more importantly Baltimore City and County. First and foremost, contrary to other parts of the nation the idea of town or township does not exist. In other words, Baltimore County is not broken down into a series of townships each with their own mayor and municipal services. Instead, the area of Baltimore County is broken down into neighborhoods or communities outside and surrounding the city of Baltimore. In addition many of these areas are not separated by vast areas of fields or forests but are actually connected to each other. Baltimore communities can be described as liquid, flowing into each other with no clear distinction. Such distinctions are only made for reasons like providing area codes and rec. councils. In addition no one from these communities say that they are from these areas; everyone says that they are from Baltimore. However, if one Baltimorean is conversing with another Baltimorean about where they live then these area names become applicable. Those who attend private schools are the by-products of the school and of the area they live in.
Baltimore County, while containing a decent population, does not have the markings of a densely populated area. Most of the communities are fairly forested and would resemble the distant suburbs of many other metropolitan areas. Theref...
