Definitions by Uncle Dimma

lumberjack

a) a male equivalent of a mediocrity from the suburbs
b) a synonym for a male "average Joe" or "hilly-billy"
the term lumberjack can be used as a synonym in definition b) because like almost everyone else lumberjacks are hard-working everyday people, and the average North American citizen is indeed hard-working.
and btw, for a person of any gender, if your mother was a mediocrity from the suburbs and/or your father a lumberjack -definition a)- do not expect to look like either Brad Pitt or Angelina Jolie, even if your bedroom skill are better than your parents'.

we, humans, are creatures of habit 

a) the most pragmatic, rational response to the rhetorical questions "why do old habits die hard" and "why people resist change"

b) a nicer way of telling someone "no matter how hard you try to change someone, they will always retain part of their individuality."
a teenage boy comes crying to his father : " why won't my girlfriend Meedith follow me to Mechanical Engineering; all she wants to do is go study Psychology. Is there anything I can do?

father: no. the cherry-phrase we, humans, are creatures of habit applies to her too. not matter how much you have in common, she is still her own individual person. The only thing you can do, is not commit a St Valentines Day Massacre on her, that's about all i can tell you.

carnaldestism 

(acronym of the phrase "baptism of carnal desire" :

a) the night someone is 'baptized' in terms of their carnal desires, i.e. loses their virginity.
a caveat for my friends the ladies who have not had their carnaldestism: do not get drunk beforehand; getting drunk before your carnaldestism is retargerous.

social retard 

(semi-offensive term):

a) (offensive ): A person in North America, born after 1970 (or so), who is past 18 years of age and who is still virgin for non religious, non-family and non ethnic related reasons

b) a person in North America born after 1950, who was never mentally ill, yet who never had any close friends either when they were a bratager and idiotager, and turned out fine when they became young adults.
Among modern North American teenagers obsessed with such sociological concepts as swag and yolo, it is not royal flush to be a social retard under definition a), or if you already fit definition a), you would be considered a social a social retard under definition b).
