Darth Ridley's definitions

gaa

Sports organised by the GAA (Gaelic Athletic Association), notably hurling and gaelic football.

I like gaa, but the GAA has a habit of ruining it.

RAG week

RAG week - the RAG stands for 'Raising And Giving,' 'Raise A Grand,' or general funness depending on who you ask. Whatever it is, it is theoretically supposed to be about students raising money for charity in various creative ways, while having fun at the same time.

Increasingly, however, it is simply a week-long orgy of alcohol.

Damo: Doing anything for RAG week?
Bob: I'm gonna get totally pissed on Guinness and shrooms.
Damo: Sweet! What about you, Jack?
Jack: I'm thinking of doing a spinsored bungee jump and giving the money to Oxfam...Say, would you guys sponsor me.
Damo and Bob: No way! We need that money to get wasted!

blue moon

Originally, in a season in which four full moons occurred, the blue moon was the third of these.

In 1946, an error in the magazine *Sky and Telescope* led to the term referring to the second blue moon in a month.

Today, the phrase 'blue moon' is used to refer to an event that happens quite rarely. Interestingly, by either of the definitions given above, it would ean something that occurs on average every 2.5 years.

There'll be a blue moon in a few weeks.

I watch soap operas once in a blue moon.

masters of the Universe

A vaguely passable show, let down by the terrible animation common to many carttons of that era. The remake is absolutely shit. I mean, they have lasers, so why do they fight with SWORDS?!?!

Hmm, Masters of the Universe is on...might as well watch it, there's nothing else.
