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.

One of the darkest, most sadistic, and best anime series' around. The story takes place from 1990-2055. The series is about Rin, who looks as though she's in her twenties or early thirties, but is actually immortal. For the first few episodes she runs a detective agency in Shinjuku with her friend Mimi, who is also immortal. While solving mysteries about deaths surrounding them and their friends, Rin and Mimi try to solve the mystery of whose been causing Rin suffering in her eternal life and trying to find a way to kill her once and for all.
The series is comprised of six 45-minute long episodes, each of them taking place in a different year. This is a great series that focuses on relationships, revenge, and the value of life

Rin-Daughters of Mnemosyne is one of the most underrated shows of all time. I seriously wish they would've made more episodes.

Charlie Sheen's character on Two and a half men. A hedonistic ladies man who works as a commercial jingle writer (and at least once a children's song writer). Harper was almost a mirror image of Sheen (the major difference being drug use, Sheen being a major user of most drugs whereas Harper only occasionally does weed, though still drinks a lot). Charlie does not enjoy the company of his mother Evelyn or brother Alan, but does occasionally enjoy hanging out with his nephew Jake (though does not hold back from making fun of his slow intelligence and frequent "toilet usage").
Sheen was fired from the show on March 7, 2011. For the upcoming ninth season, Harper will have been killed off in Paris after being hit by a train (reported as an accident but may have been done by wife/former stalker Rose due to her catching him with another woman). His house will be purchased by Walden Schmidt (played by Ashton Kutcher).

Charlie Harper was the heart of Two and a half men. Even if Kutcher's character is twice as funny, it still won't be able to replace him.

Awesome 2005 documentary directed by metalhead Sam Dunn, an anthropoligist from British Columbia. The film studies many topics relating to Heavy Metal, including:
-Who the very first Heavy Metal band is (widely believed to be Black Sabbath, as suggested in the film) as well as the roots of metal
-The backgrounds of Heavy Metal musicians and their fans
-Gender and sexuality roles in Metal
-Why a lot of bands have faced problems with censorship due to their lyrical content, album art, and live shows
-Satanic and/or anti-christian beliefs followed by a handful of Norweigian Black Metal bands, as well as other views on religion, satanism, and other controversial topics when associated with metal.
People interviewed include (but are NOT limited to) Tony Iommi of Black Sabbath, Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden, Alice Cooper, Lemmy of Motorhead, James "Munky" Shaffer" of Korn, Ronnie James Dio, Corey Taylor and Joey Jordinson of Slipknot, Kerry King and Tom Araya of Slayer, Gaahl of Gorgoroth, Alex Webster and George "Corpsegrinder" Fisher of Cannibal Corpse, and many other metal musicians and producers, as well as multiple fans, socioligists, and even one minister.
The film is a largely independent film with limited theatrical release, so very few are totally familiar with it. A sequal entitled "Global Metal" was released in 2008, which is probably just as good but even less known.

Brad thinks Nickelback is Metal, so I'm going to show him "Metal: A Headbanger's Journey" to teach him what real metal is about.

The only TV show that can make Jersey Shore look good. Basically a reality show on TLC following a rural Georgia family trying to be as white trash and dysfunctional as possible, with most of the focus being on the family's seven year old beauty pageant contestant Alana "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson.
This show represents all that is wrong with American society and why many people from other parts of the world think of us all as a bunch of idiot, redneck hicks.

Here Comes Honey Boo Boo has got to be one of the worst ideas in the history of TV. When that poor girl hits her teens she's gonna realize how stupid her past TV life was and either kill herself or commit to a life of hard drugs and/or prostitution.

Single handedly the most fun online game ever. Puts two teams (RED and BLU) of nine unique classes (Scout, Soldier, Heavy, Spy, Pyro, Sniper, Engineer, Demoman, and Medic) against each other. A sequel to the Quake mod Team Fortress (released as a standalone game called Team Fortress Classic), TF2 (as it is commonly abbreviated) was originally announced in 1998 for a '99 release. However, as Valve is prone to doing (see Valve Time), development of the game was stopped and started repeatedly for nine years until 2006, when the current version of the game was unveiled at E3 an While the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 versions are very fun, the PC/Mac version is the best, as it is often updated to include new maps, game modes, weapons, and accessories.
