GaaraoftheDamned's definitions
A very dark and experimental genre of music. The genre was first created by Throbbing Gristle in the 1970's. The sound is characterized by drone-like noises in an ambient style and frequent use of found objects and electronic instruments (mainly the keyboard and computer programming but electric guitars, bass, and drums are found in it). Industrial music became more well-known when the genres of Industrial Rock and Industrial Metal first came into being. Fans of Industrial music are called rivetheads though Industrial is very popular with straight up Goths.
Contrary to what some people say, bands like Nine Inch Nails, Ministry, KMFDM, and some works of Marilyn Manson ARE in fact Industrial. Though these bands have had at least one period of mainstream exposure, they remain relativley underground compared to a lot of other musicians, not to mention a lot of them are back in the underground (while NIN and Manson have performed in stadiums before, they mostly play in smaller venues that barely hold more than 500-1000 people). Bands like the above mentioned ones are great for starting out with Industrial, though if you want to become serious about it you should also check out bands like Controlled Bleeding, Whitehouse, and Coil.

When you listen to Industrial Music, whether it be Throbbing Gristle's "20 Jazz Funk Greats" or Ministry's "The Land of Rape and Honey", you get a certain satisfaction and creative feeling you can't get from most other music.

Get the Industrial Musicmug. One of the greatest but most underrated characters on Futurama. Known for being completely golden, always lying down, even while walking, almost always munching on grapes, and always rejoicing at anything and everything that brings him entertainment or pleasure.
Some of Hedonism Bot's best quotes are:
I apologize for nothing!
Surgery in an opera? How wonderfully decadent! And just when I was beginning to lose interest... Djambi, the chocolate icing!
Oh, sirrah, how deliciously absurd!

Get the Hedonism Botmug. Store that sells mainly music. Big from the Twenties to the Nineties, itunes has driven a lot of good record stores out of business. Though a few still exist in most cities, and sell CDs, vinyl, 45s, tapes, and DVDS of shows and movies alike.

Get the Unoriginalitymug. 1. Cast member of the god-awful TV show Jersey Shore. Known for being a slut who tans too much, thinks she's Italian when she's really Chilean, and bases her political opinions on people's views on tanning and not real issues. Also hideously ugly.
2. A real boner killer
3. A person carrying every STD known to man (and possibly a few others that haven't been discovered yet).

1. Oh god Jersey Shore is on again. Unless Snooki announces she has skin cancer and six months to live I shy away from the TV whenever it's on.
2. I was getting ready to have sex with this really hot chick from the Iron Maiden show when a Snooki popped into my head for a second and now I'm struggling with erectile dysfunction.
4. Mark and Kim are perfect for each other. They're both Snookis so they can't catch anything new from each other.

Get the Snookimug. Term applying to a suburban housewife who spends most of her time looking after her kids, taking them to and from school, little league sports games, music lessons, etc., in lieu of a career. There are essentially two kinds of soccer moms:
-The bad kind: the one most other soccer mom definitions on this site target. The ones that take rather conservative views and approaches to life, having negative perceptions on most forms of modern music, video games, TV shows that don't feature characters like Spongebob and Mickey Mouse, and any and all signs of non-conformity. The type that feel anything that isn't considered "family friendly" (at least by their standards) should be outlawed.
-The good kind: a soccer mom who hates being such. Chances are that the soccer mom life isn't what they want; either they had bigger dreams and ambitions that never took off or didn't get far, or who convinced themselves they were happy and didn't see the truth until it was too late. Much more tolerant of outside influences and non-family friendly things (so long as no one is forcing them onto their children). Soccer moms like these tend to escape their dull lives by reading romantic-often dirty-novels and frequently getting drunk on wine.

Not all Soccer Moms are stuck up bitches who think their children come before anything and everything else in this world.
