Mongoloid (mahn - go - loyd) n.
1. One whose ancestors are Asian, particularly those from South-East Asia. Derrived from the term Mongol, who were inhabitants of Mongolia, because much of South-East Asia has been conquered by the Mongols, meaning their genetics had spread. This is especially true in places such as China, but not so much in Japan. They are characterised as having round mandibles, often over-bites (or under-bites), large teeth, small eyes, large eyelids, slanted eyes, black hair, and seemingly yellow skin.
2. (Vulgar slang) A person who resembles one with Down syndrome in appearence, lacks intelligence, or both. Called so, because people unfamiliar with Asians may think of them as people with Down syndrome.

1. Why do many people have a disgusting obsession with everything Asian, including female Mongoloids? Truly bizarre, in my opinion.
2. Kim Jong Il is such a fucking mongoloid.

Get the mongoloidmug. An epic battle, equivalent to a dick measuring, or pissing contest. It pits the next-gen consoles against eachother - in this case, the Wii, X360, and Playstation 3 - in a battle... TO THE DEATH! Fanboys on all sides shall be hurling shit at eachother, while those of us who remain in the center shall laugh. Hillarity will ensue every battle, and the casualties will mount. Pick a side, or lackthereof, but be warned: choose the ultimate loser (all sides, except the center/neutral position), and you are to be fucked with for the ages.
In the future, more "wars" of the like will surely follow.

Fanboys across the globe are creaming their pants, in anticipation of the grand Console War, of the second generation.

Get the Console Warmug. Globalization is the inter-dependence of nations on one anothers' goods, resulting in a global economy. One may argue that such has occurred since civilization began, with the thing we know as commerce, but that is more wrong than right.
There are perks of globalization, such as:
- The ability to travel internationally easier.
- A wide variety of goods, differing in quality and price dramatically.
- Forced peace between inter-dependent nations, which results in less war.
- More universal measurement, arithmetic, and language, making it easier for people to communicate internationally.
Of course, globalization has serious draw-backs, too:
- If one economy declines, the rest do, too. This is much like a farmer using one variant of one crop, which will result in the destruction of most of his crop, if a bad disease hits.
- If a universal currency is not used, some, smaller nations will have disadvantages in trade.
- If one nation so chooses to withdraw from the global economy, the entire thing could collapse.
- Those countries that offer less valuable products than others will get fucked over.
- The richer nations profit more than the smaller ones.

Get the globalizationmug. A modern, modular assault rifle, in use by active duty, frontline units in the US Army and Marine Corps. It is the forerunner to the M16A2, which was in use from the early 1980's, to even now. While in less use than the M16A2, it is more effective.
Arguably a better rifle than its predecessors, the M16A4 is a rifle based on the AR15 platform. It features removable sights, a picatinny rail, fore grip rails, detachable carrying rail, and is slightly higher quality than the M16A2, all around. It utilizes a direct gas-diversion system, along with a rotating bolt. The magazines are generally 30-round ones, loaded with Mk. 262 or M855 5.56x45mm ball ammunition. It has a safe/semi-automatic/three-round burst selector switch.
Reliability in the M16A4 is solid; one is capable of firing upwards of 1,000 standard, ball rounds through a decently maintained rifle, with STANAG magazines, without a single jam or malfunction. While disputably not as good as the AK platform, it is a far cry from the M16(A0), and is a step up from the M16A2.

The M16A4 isn't worthy of its tarnished reputation, in reality. The M16 was an AR15, heavily modified from Eugene Stoner's designs, by Lyndon Johnson's DoD.
