An over-rated, over-priced, and mainly Jewish-influenced university. At this campus you'll see many a JAP, spoiled New England kids, prep, and party-seeking kids. Honestly, Tulane is very good only in a few areas, probably such as Medicine and Law, and the rest are mainly mediocre. Lots of party-goers though. Some of their frat parties are totally nuts, with a huge number of people overflowing out of a frat house, and it makes you wonder if some of these people ever crack a book.
After Katrina, Tulane decided to phase out their whole engineering department except for the degrees of: Biomedical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Engineering(Undecided), and Engineering Physics. This isn't too surprising considering that these departments were not Tulane's strong suits anyway. But the reasoning for ditching those departments: financial reasons. Yeah, right, after you take at least 30K from each person you don't have enough to keep the Engineering school going. Gimme a break.

Dude 1: "Man, I'm undecided about which school I should go to. I was accepted to Rice, UCLA, and Tulane. I'm leaning towards Tulane right now because I'm thinking it's a fun place."
Dude 2: "Dude, you want to spend that much money for an overrated school when you got accepted to Rice and UCLA? College isn't mainly about partying anyway, is it? And what's your major going to be anyway?"
Dude 1: "Mechanical Engineering."
Dude 2: "Well, in that case, you should know that Tulane cancelled that whole department after Katrina."
Dude 1: " Dang, OK, I'm thinking SoCal sounds better."

Back in 2005 when Hurricane Katrizzle came through, man that was no drizzle that katrizzle, that was some serious life-altering stuff.

Dude, I need to catharcate - I'm thinking of going for a really long bike ride, then drinking scalding green tea, and then taking an hour-long shower.

Mainly used in the Egyptian dialect of Arabic, this phrase means "no way!"
So if you visit Cairo one day, and want to try to haggle with one of the merchants in Khan-al-Khalili, you can keep saying "mish mumkin" when they offer you a price until they get to the lowest price.

Dude 1: "Man, yesterday I saw a Lamborghini Countach that was painted with a really glossy and shiny blackish-purple color, and it had spinning rims, and to top the back spoiler was shaped differently, and it looked really scary. Plus a huge flame came out of the exhaust once that sucker took off."
Dude 2: "Mish mumkin!"
Dude 1: "How could I lie about this man?"

Someone who's body seems to be like one large, flexible piece of play-doh. Or made of rubber. Amazing really.
Gymnasts and ballerinas sometimes can become contortionists.

At the half-time show yesterday, I saw a contortionist stand on one hand, bend her legs back over her head and shoot a bow-and-arrow accurately. It was mind-boggling.

German for "sexy" - can be used when one doesn't want the object of admiration to know what that means, to surprise the listener, or just to sound like you're talking in a code language and you're some sophisticated cosmopolitan.
