Hey Team -
I had to let Claire O'Malley go today.
Having subscribed to some new-found "chestist" belief of having to "get everything off her chest" and "speaking her own truths" does not give her a free pass to make offensive remarks about co-workers or management. If anyone has a problem with this decision, don't let the door hit you in the ass.

(n) A portmanteau of Bro + Moab. Moab, Utah has gained the nickname "Broab", due to the overwhelming numbers of bros who flock there for testosterone laden homoerotic bro-sports like mountainbiking, ATV riding, jeeping, rafting, law enforcement, etc.
Hey Bro! I just came back from riding some gnar illegal singletrack in Broab!

Why are there so many lesbians in Broab, anyway?

Meat hipsters used to be vegetarians (when it was trendy), then vegans (when it was trendy). Now they are meat hipsters or "sustainable" & "conscious eaters".
Meat hipsters ritualize charcuterie, butchery, back-to-the-land farming and the myth of the pastoral agrarian paradise. They take classes in how to cut up whole hogs, composting and permaculture.
A school of thought brought to the masses by Michael Pollan's "The Omnivore's Dilemma" and "In Defense of Food".

Wow! Check out Anne stripping the meat off those BBQ ribs!
To think that she was a preachy vegan like two months ago and now she's an unabashed meat hipster... What will it be next? Eating kosher?

(n) Fake glasses. Non-prescription eye-glasses worn by pretentious hipsters and other douche-bags for "fashion" or "vanity" purposes to look more intelligent, sophisticated or cultured than they really are.
An example of recession chic. Mouth-breathing fashion models or unintelligent people in general wear faux glasses to affect having read lots of books or having some modicum of smarts. Dead give-away that someone is an idiot.

They're fucking plano glasses dude - she's trying to pretend she's not actually a pretentious trust-funder with a silver spoon in her mouth.

A theory first conceived of by economist Thorstein Veblen in 1899 in his treatise The Theory of the Leisure Class, Veblen further details how working class people try to emulate the Leisure Class and idolize them to their own detriment.

Moab, Park City, Aspen and Vail have become infested with leisure class parasites who want to reform small towns into the image of whatever wealthy "progressive" communities they fled from.

(n) Not to be confused with the Hipster Beard, or the Charles Manson Beard, the American Taliban Beard is a full beard worn with a shaved head.
Named after John Walker Lindh, the "American Taliban" homegrown terrorist who is serving a 20 year sentence for joining the Taliban and fighting against the US in Afghanistan.
Muslim men who are performing the Hajj to Mecca and Jihadis who are planning to commit suicide bombings often shave their heads, but leave their beards so that they are clean when they ride the magic carpet to Allah and their 72 virgins.

The American Taliban Beard is the laziest haircut a man can have. Never have to comb your hair & never have to shave.
