A Fate Worse Than Death

Basically to assume that living a really long life is horrible and dangerous. Let's say that you were currently alive and something extremely unpleasant has happened to you that would possibly result in mental scars. Something so bad that it will stick with you for the rest of your life and you just can't wait for death.

Death is an absolutely natural part of life. You're gonna die at some point so you might as well accept it while you still can. Sometimes it would be much better for most people who really have it worse than others.

Life truly can be a fate worse than death. I know some people who have it so worse that they are just wanting to be put out of their misery because their pain (whether it be physically, mentally or emotionally) lasts the longer they live.

21

A rather arbitrary age (even more so than 18) used when it comes to adulthood. It is also the drinking age in America (America having one of the oldest drinking ages in the world, and the main reason why it was raised at 21 was to prevent drunk driving that was going on at the time).

You can go to war at 18 but can only drink at 21 in America? The inconsistency is strong with this one.

Jack Apple Chin

Not to be confused with the whiskey of the same name, this is a special alternative term to describe dimpled chins instead of "Butt Chin". Unlike "Butt Chin", this new term describes how the cleft chin itself is more shaped like an apple instead of the human buttocks, as with how the verticle cleft within the chin also resembles a vertical cut within an apple just like a Jack O' Lantern. "Jack" in this saying is meant to reference how apples are often actually used as Jack O' Lanterns sometimes instead of pumpkins.

Look dude, instead of making fun of my cleft chin and saying how much it looks like a butt, how about you just call it a "Jack Apple Chin" instead?

Onalaska, Washington

A small, unincorporated community within Lewis County, Washington. The name for the town comes from the poem The Pleasures of Hope by Thomas Campbell.

I grew up in Onalaska, Washington and I personally liked it. It was much better than growing up in the big city.

Ugly Canadian

Similar to the Ugly American, but completely different due to being all Canadian instead of American.

American 1: Sometimes I wish I could move to Canada. Canadians are known to be the nicest people there is.

American 2: Dude, shouldn't Ugly Canadians be enough to prove that not all Canadians are perfect angels? That alone is enough to prove that there's rude and obnoxious people everywhere and not just in the U.S.

Eclectic Fiction

Any work of fiction that derives all sorts of themes, genres, ideas and styles from a broad range of different sources.

One example of eclectic fiction is The Dark Tower where it incorporates four literary genres: Science fiction, fantasy, horror and western. Of course though there other fictional works that incorporate much more genres.

Generation Generalization

When one generalizes an entire generation without knowing the fact that not all the people within a specific generation fit most negative stereotypes about them. This is especially used against the Millennials and Gen Z'ers.

Non-Millennial: All Millennials are so PC it hurts.

Millennial: Uh, I'm part of Generation Y and I don't even give two shits about political correctness.

Non-Millennial: Really?

Millennial: Yeah. Instead of going with generation generalization, how about we all just stop generalizing the hell out of different generations and actually work together to make this world a much better place for us to live in.
