Manna for the mindless is a disparaging description of television programmes that do no more than fill up air time. The programmes that are banal, trivial and boring and which, if they were a person, would be described as a WOFS. You know the sort of crap, pretty well all of daytime television, soap operas screened at any time, moronic game shows, chat shows featuring liggers or z-list celebrities, the list just goes on. It is the sort of programme which doesn’t require dumbing down as it is targeted at fuckwits or insomniacs who need something other than drugs to help them sleep.
Before twenty-four seven television was inflicted on a long-suffering human race, manna for the mindless was typified by film serials where the hero always overcame impossible odds to rescue the heroine from an impossible situation and the villain was always defeated. Either that or the Hollywood musical of the 1950s such as Carousel or South Pacific, total shite consisting of totally forgettable songs, stilted dialogue and a non-existent plot.

At one time it was used to refer to a hybrid device or one adapted from one purpose to another; in 1517 it was used to refer to second rate Spanish Sack wines and in engineering it refers to a type of coarse-toothed file.

So if someone tells you they don't fart, they're probably lying and are specialists in SBDs and are just trying to avoid being blamed for that nasty smell that made everyone’s eyes water.
“I just told Malcolm that he is well above average, but I don’t think he realised I was referring to fart fact 5.”

Some of the definitions written for Urban Dictionary by teenage spite monkeys are sickeningly repulsive and graphically demonstrates their childish, self-aggrandising stupidity.

A typical example would be the Country and Urban Nature Trail Society which was intended to promote pleasant nature walks in both the town and countryside. It never got off the ground because the acronym was CUNTS. Another British example is Radical Alternatives to Prison, a bunch of bleeding hearts who want to abolish prisons. They were originally going to be called Completely Radical Alternatives to Prison – CRAP, but decided against this, perhaps it was too close to the truth about their ideas.
One unfortunate acronym which is still currently used is TWAT which stands for The War Against Terrorism, while from the United States comes FLOTUS which identifies the President’s wife and stands for First Lady Of The United States. It’s an unfortunate acronym in that it sounds as if it is something unpleasant lurking in a toilet bowl. I suppose they could try removing some of the unimportant letters, but FLOUS and FLUS don’t sound much better.

A Spite Monkey is a type of volunteer editor working for Urban Dictionary who, having had a definition rejected, goes into a session to approve new words and rejects anything and everything irrespective of its value. A childish, nasty, little fuckwit whose actions hold back progress and discourage others from contributing. They don't bother looking to see how their definition can be fixed, they just throw all of their toys out of the pram and reject everyone else's definitions.
