grassy knoll

Conspiracy-theorists' dream opportunity to speculate over the reasons JFK was killed.
Oh, yeah, I have a theory on the grassy knoll and area 51, it all starts in camp SHUT-THE-FUCK-UP-I-DON'T-CARE.

pandora's box 

According to Greek legend, the first woman, Pandora, was actually sent as a curse to Zues' men (See, you knew it was true, guys) and was given a present upon her marriage. The present was a box that she was told never to open. Needless to say her curiosity got the better of her (like eating forbidden fruit) and she unleashed eight demons unto the world. The first seven being the seven deadly sins, and the last, which she managed to capture, was hope.


Today, much like christianity's idea of biting forbidden fruit, opening pandora's box refers to getting into a situation over which one has very little control over.
The assassinating on Austrian Archduke ferdinand in 1914 opened pandora's box for Europe.

2) The pivot.- Non kicking leg is spun so that kicking leg is forced higher and sole of foot is perpendicular to the ground.

3) Kick- kicking leg is flicked out and back again.
I round-housed that drunkard and stole his wallet.

flip-side of the same coin 

A person or idea that is the flip-side of the same coin as another person or idea is one that is fundamentally the same, but social influences have changed the ultimate goal.
The black panthers and the nazi party are essentially flip-sides of the same coin. One seeks white advancement, at the cost of suppressing all non-whites.


The other seeks advancement of all non-whites, at the cost of being indifferent to the plight of marginalised white folks.

swallow a loss 

When a business undercharges thier customers, more often than not they wish to save face by detracting the loss from their profit, and
"swallow" it.
We've undercharged by a little bit, so we'll swallow a loss.
