Get the pussy mug.A Scottish Gaelic slang (an insulting) term for a gay male, literally meaning "boy of the arse", implying being a passive partner in anal sex.
'S e tàmailt a tha "gille-tòine", ach ciamar nach bu chòir dhomh pròiseil a bhith a tha mi co-sheòrsach?
(It's an insult that "boy of the arse" is, but why should I not be proud that I'm gay?)

Get the gille-tòine mug.A person who writes poetry. The archaic term for a female poet is "poetess", but due to some feminists concidering the term sexist, "poetess" isn't used much now.
Also known as a bard (straight from the Gaelic "bàrd"), or troubador(from Latin and French), and especially known as these things in the Midieval Era.

Get the poet mug.Used to mean "vigorous", "hale and hearty".
Now it refers to a woman with a full figure, voluptuous curves and generously endowed in the bust and hips (as opposed to the bone-thin supermodels shown in the media).
Think of Jennifer Hudson, Beyonce, Kelly Clarkson, Sara Ramirez, Queen Latifah, Kate Winslet, Marilyn Monroe, Anna Nicole Smith, Mia Tyler, Chloe Agnew, America Ferrera, among others.

Why the craze with these androgynous stick figures on the runway?! After thousands of years of worshipping buxom, full figured women with wide hips and lots of curves, we're down to admiring these starving waifs who can barely sustain themselves, much less a baby?

Get the buxom mug."I'd rather go out with someone a little more unpredictable."
Is that what anyone would want in a spouse or a sweetheart? Somebody who is inconsistent, flaky, fickle, erratic, and just unreliable? A bad boy would be just the wrong man to marry if you want a successful, stable marriage.

Get the unpredictable mug.Often confused with "asocial", which is very different; "asocial" means one who seeks to avoid society, somebody who refuses to or cannot socialize with others, like someone on the autism spectrum.
Antisocial means "against society" or "anti-society"; hostile and antagonistic toward society. This includes behavior that disrespects and violates the rights and feelings of others as well as the order and principles of society, behavior that includes theft, bullying, rape, deception, murder, and general criminal behavior.
An antisocial personality knows the difference between right and wrong but does not care; as long as they get what they want, they don't care who they have to walk over. Any means- manipulation, flattery, intimidation, cruelty, theft, murder- is perfectly justified to them

Robert Hare, revising his psychopathy checklist, says that all psychopaths are antisocial personalities but not all antisocial personalities are psychopaths. Similar to the autism spectrum, antisocial personalities range from obvious sociopaths to extreme (and well-hidden) psychopaths.
