argentina

A South American country with a surprisingly tiny number of pure Native American people and mestizos. Known for its large Spanish and Italian population, its warm people, and also for its current economic depression and several corrupt leaders.
"Don't cry for me, Argentina...
the truth is I never left you,
all through my wild days,
my mad existance,
I kept my promise-
don't keep your distance..."
-From Andrew Lloyd-Webber's musical, "Evita".

A country that shouldn't cry for Eva Peron (despite that the historical Eva never said that).

irritable

Easily annoyed or angered. Cranky or grumpy. Cross, bad-tempered.
Sarah Good was called to testify. The irritable beggar rarely went to church and often muttered under her breath when she was denied food or shelter; she was an easy target for accusations of witchcraft.

whore

Another word for a prostitute. Someone who performs sexual acts for money. It also refers to a person who wastes their abilities by working for unworthy, disgraceful causes.

It's not exactly legitimate to call somebody a whore unless they are paid for what they do.

Mardi Gras

Translated litereally from French, "Fat Tuesday", this "holiday" has obscured origins and is now a marvolous excuse to march down the streets, to wear bright, often clashing, colors, to smash down the barriers of "heterosexuality" and "homosexuality" and to go crazy, drinking, streaking, and "playing" with whoever you want
From WLIIA: "I want yo uto do this scene like you're college girls going crazy at a Mardi Gras... action!"

action figure

A doll by another name, differing from a doll by being designed for tough, aggressive, "masculine" situations. Used by males to disguise their insecurity with being associated with traditionally "feminine" things. Just like a kilt is not caled a "skirt".
"Action figure"? What does that mean anyway? Is it an active thing? What does it mean? Call it what you like it, but any way that you look at it, an "action figure" is a doll by another name; "That which we call a rose/By any other word would smell as sweet."-Juliet, Romeo and Juliet

Let them eat cake

A quote that has long been attributed to Marie Antoinette, although historians have generally concluded that she never said that.
Rousseau published in his work "Confessions" (1770) a story of a "great princess" who asked why the peasants were so upset; when told that they had no bread, the princess flippantly said "Qu'ils mangent de la brioche". Marie Antoinette was only fourteen at the time, unknown to the world, and was not even in France at the time.
The story of the ignorant, callous princess uttering "Let them eat cake" was around for a century before Marie Antoinette was even born. Contrary to saying such a statement, Marie Antoinette once wrote to her family: "It is quite certain that in seeing the people who treat us so well despite their own misfortune, we are more obliged than ever to work hard for their happiness. The King seems to understand this truth."
