Short for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, otherwise known as "Lou Gehrig's Disease". It's a neurodegenerative disease characterized by muscle spasticity, rapidly progressive weakness due to muscle atrophy, and difficulty speaking, swallowing, and breathing. ALS is the most common of the five motor neuron disease.
Peter Frates was diagnosed with ALS, and due to appearences at various meetings and such events, the ALSIceWater challenge was created.

an old thing (movie, joke, etc.) that is so good it stands up to and beats the living fucking shit out of the new things.
Shufflleboard, old spongebob episodes, old jokes, heroic sacrifices, someone who is cool and not a jackass. all of these are classic

A genre of music that 100% of people on this website bitch about nonstop, whether about how they think it's retarded or how they think it's been corrupted and so on. In reality, country music is just another genre of music that developed in the early stages of expansion in America, where the only instruments where handmade fiddles and such. The songs are understandable and about topics such as life, love, and loss. And just for the record, don't call country listeners retards because PEOPLE CAN LIKE WHATEVER THE FUCK THEY WANT, YOU ARROGANT, CLOSE-MINDED DUMBASSES. You are not the authority on what is and isn't cool. I can respect what you like, but can you respect what other people like?
Country music is for the people who like it.

short for popular culture. is pretty much anything that can be identified by the majority of the youth population. and when i say youth, i mean anyone from 6-30. in short, pop culture is jokes, practices, groups of people, and terms that are used by/funny to the majority of the youth population.
pop culture is referenced in movies a lot, especially in animated (or non-animated) adventure movies that can be watched and (mostly) understood by anyone. like putting internet memes or cat videos in a movie.

to be so interested in your own thoughts, your brain stops focusing on the reception from your senses. You only snap out of it when, 1) you realize you zoned out and subsequently "come back into the real world", 2) something happens that catches your attention, like say a major movement in front of your face, or 3) someone says your name.
When the principle came into to talk to us about Jacob running away from school on his longboard, I was so bored by that old hag that I had to zone out in five seconds. I snapped out of it when she stopped talking, and guess what I was thinking about? A sandwich.

1. a happy mood
2. a derogatory term for a homosexual man or woman, but can have a positive or neutral connotation when used correctly
3. an insult used to describe something that is bad, crappy, or stupid. used by the insecure, homophobic teenagers (around the 13-16 age range) to accentuate the point that they are not gay. not all teenagers use this, though. some of them develop souls earlier than others.

used to describe a person who is completely themselves, never afraid to be who they are, not worrying about what other people think of them. these people also tend to be completely respectable, friendly, and just plain awesome. Individuals cannot be put into a category because they act how they want, not how others want them to. they can think outside the box, because they are not confined by others to think only about certain things. they have butt-loads of creativity, which means that they can come up with a completely original idea, or an idea that was influenced by others' thoughts. contrary to the popular belief of those without it, creativity is NOT "forgetting who you stole from", but rather an ability that is looked down on in the adult world.
John: ummm, dude? why are you doing that?
Finn: why not?
John: because the popular people say that that's not cool!
Finn: i don't care what they think. they aren't the boss of me!
John: wow. that's awesome. you're an individual, aren't you?
Finn: i don't like labels, bro.
John yup, you're an individual alright
