Chernorizets Hrabr's definitions
Innovators of the heavy metal subgenre we now know as nu-metal or aggro-rock. Korn currently consist of 4 members now that rhythm guitarist Head has departed the band; Jonathan Davis, a great frontman and talented vocalist, Munky, a rather average guitarist (along with Head), Fieldy, a pretty slick bassist who greatly defines the band's sound, and Dave Silveria, an underrated and highly talented drummer. KoRn is known for their heavy sound, low-tuned guitars and dark themes and humour.
KoRn has many devoted fans around the world who love them for the music, not because of some poseur teen-angst image complex. It is because of these poseurs that many people hate KoRn, basing their opinion on the fact that many people who like the band shop at Hot Topic and suck at life, so the band must suck too. In reality, KoRn are respected by musicians as innovators, and famous because their sound simply kicks ass. KoRn acknowledges the fact that their recent albums have been sub-par due to wiggerism and promises to return to their roots in their next album. Hey, at least they admit it and learn from it, unlike some bands who use the phrase "people don't like it just because it's different" as an excuse for their crapiness.
In conclusion, you don't have to like KoRn... just don't hate on them for stupid reasons. A lot of people think "real" metal bands like Iron Maiden and Lamb of God suck too, so keep that in mind when you bash them.

Get the KoRn mug.Along with Sam Adams, Amstel and Miller Genuine Draft, Yuengling is proof that America is capable of making a great beer. Beats the shit out of Heineken.

Get the Yuengling mug.A confusing term created by confused people who think you can classify a race by a language. Residents of "latin" American countries refer to themselves as latino because of their descendants from Spain. Little do they realize that most of said countries had next to zero interbreeding with Spaniards and a vast majority of those who refer to themselves as latin have zero Spanish blood. Countries and people who should obviously not be called latino are somehow lumped under this category simply because they speak Spanish. Blacks born in the Dominican Republic are somehow latino, as are white europeans from Spain. Blacks and Spaniards racially and ethnically have NOTHING in common with residents of the Latin Americas but call themselves the same race. Somehow, under this theory, a Spaniard is latin, but an Italian is not, despite the fact that pretty much everything Latin really came from Rome.
Latino is an overly vague, catch-all term and a misnomer that attributes a culture to people that don't belong to it, at the same time depriving one of their actual heritage. A Mexican is a Mexican. A Spaniard is a Spaniard. A Puerto Rican is a Puerto Rican.

(what goes through a Spaniard's mind when filling out a form...)
Manuel: Hmmm, race? What to choose, what to choose... well, I AM white, so I should probably choose caucasian... Wait, never mind! I speak Spanish! Therefore, THIS is my race! (checks the "latino" box)
-----------------------
(example of the obvious flaws in using the term "latin" to describe a Spanish-speaking person)
Cesar: I'm from Mexico and I have REAL latin culture, something whites could only dream of.
Antonio: Well, I'm Italian, I'm white, and I ACTUALLY come from REAL latins. You know, the ones who lived in Europe, not Central America. Your ancestors come from Native Indians.
Cesar: (goes ballistic and calls Antonio a racist gringo)

Get the latino mug.Ok, I always had a nagging suspicion that emos and "hardcore" kids (emos with spiked hair who curse a lot) were pathetic faggots, but when I saw hardcore dancing for the first time, my preconceptions were confirmed. Hardcore dancing consists of some 90-pound little twat with greasy black hair flailing his limbs around, punching and kicking the air. Though annoying, pathetic, and downright retarded, it is a suitable method of dancing to emo and "hardcore" music, as the music takes no talent to create and sounds like a pack of whining retards, so the dancing should be similar. Hardcore dancing is a disgrace to moshing. You can say metal is a thing of the past all you want, because it doesn't make the present trends (such as emo) suck any less. Fags.

Get the Hardcore Dancing mug.The guy who didn't win American Idol simply because Ruben is black. Face it, it's the truth. Now, I'm not a fan of either of them OR the show itself, but listen to Ruben's songs and then Clay's songs and honestly try to tell me with a straight face that Ruben deserved to win. Incidentally, the black community recently accused American Idol of being "racist" and "discriminatory" despite the fact that 2 out of three winners were black. Bullshit. "Sorry for 2004"? How bout "Sorry for rigging the contest"?

Get the Clay Aiken mug.Nationalistic Virgin: In our nation of (insert country no one cares about such as Estonia/Serbia/Honduras/Canada), we have the world's hottest women!
Normal Person: No, you don't.
Normal Person: No, you don't.

Get the World's Hottest Women mug.The Slipknot of R&B/Pop music, consisting of seven or so scantily clad young women, only two of which are actually doing anything. The Dolls are former strippers and have produced some of the most nauseatingly trite songs of the current millenium. Still, we'd all like to splooge on their collective stomachs.
The Pussycat Dolls regularly engage in deviant group sex with throngs of large african-american men.
