Get the Bindimug. TV spelled out phonetically. Used by morons who apparently aren't aware that TV isn't a word, it's an abbreviation for the word television.
"On your paper here, you wrote "teevee". Why did you spell it that way?"
"Herp derp isn't that how it's spelled?"
"(facepalm)...No. It's just spelled TV. The letter T, then the letter V. That's it."

Get the teeveemug. Hero of the US Civil War. Best known for his march through Georgia, where he gave the rebel south exactly what it fucking deserved.
Have you heard the song "Marching Through Georgia"? It commemorates the brave hero General William T. Sherman.

Get the General William T. Shermanmug. Infantry grunts for the Navy.
The United States Marine Corps is part of the US Navy, despite the Marines' fervent claims to the contrary, and despite the fact their paychecks clearly state "Department of the Navy", not "USMC".
Marines serve two functions: 1) Catching bullets 2)Poking mines with a stick. When there is a battle where heavy casualties are expected, the Marines are sent in... to be grist for the mill.

Get the Marinemug. Why do guys like us know what a duvet is? Is this necessary to our survival, in the hunter-gatherer sense of the word?

Get the duvetmug. Gasoline. Used in the UK and most of it's former colonies, sans the USA and Canada.
Oddly petrol is NOT short for petroleum.
Oddly petrol is NOT short for petroleum.
Brit: Looks like we need petrol. We'd better stop at a station and fill up.
American: Looks like we need gas. We'd better stop at a station and fill up.

Get the petrolmug. Date rape is an archaic term from a past time.
The definition of date rape: Rape committed by a person known to the victim. That's it. RAPE committed by someone who is NOT a complete stranger to the victim.
Many people nowadays might find this confusing. "Isn't that just rape?" they might ask? Well when the term date rape was coined, no it wasn't. 40, 30, even 20 years ago, what society deemed as rape was a man coming out of a dark alley and forcing sex on a woman with the use of violence; or at least with the strong threat of violence. That act was what society deemed as rape, and if the man was caught he would likely go to prison. Now, what if a woman went to a man's house to have a cup of coffee after a date? If he forced sex on her, even with her pleading him to stop, was that rape? At that time no it was not. If the woman went to the police, all she would likely hear are things like "You were coming on to him, he couldn't help himself." If the case even went to court she would practically be put on trial herself, the defense claiming that she was a slut and the man was just showing her a good time.
It's true. If the man didn't have a knife or beat the woman half to death, clearly it wasn't rape. That's what society believed.
So the term date rape was created. To describe an event of non-consensual sex which didn't fit society's "traditional" view of rape. BUT... today the term is outdated. "Date rape" is now simply considered rape.
