Pat Tillman

An NFL player who went to war in Afghanistan before everyone who realized what a disaster it would be, and then died in a pointless friendly fire incident; a man of great courage and conviction, and very little faith.

"Is it true Pat Tillman was an atheist?"
"Well, he didn't go to church, but even if he was, does that make him any less of an American hero?

daddy shopping

Dating when pregnant in hopes of finding a guy who will help you raise your kid after the loser who impregnated you got kicked to the curb. Not exactly wrong, but definitely asking for a lot of frustration.

I liked her, but I was afraid she was daddy shopping. I just couldn't deal with that.

radical

An outdated 1980s bit of slang adopted by Christian youth ministers to sound as though they're in touch with youth culture. Seems to have no particular meaning.

"We're going to have a radical experience for the Lord here!" "Did he just say... BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!! What a weenie!"

manpurse

A bag carried by a man to hold his stuff. Some people consider it a little effeminate, others don't really care. The ones who don't care are usually the ones who actually have a manpurse.

Well, yeah, I do carry a frame pack around with me almost everywhere I go. It's my manpurse.

vein opener

A song, story, or other work of art so abjectly depressing that it makes you want to hide all the sharp objects.

I don't know what I was thinking when I decided to put Paula Cole's classic 90s vein opener "Where Have All The Cowboys Gone?" on a mix for listening to in the car. Totally inappropriate.
