Lorelili's definitions
An baby cat. Also known as a kitty. They have sharp little claws and teeth and can be nasty sometimes, but they are soft, cute, and totally lovable. Their meow is just precious to hear. Be gentle; kittens are delicate.
Some people have real problems if they say that they want to hurt cats and/or kittens. How could anybody even think of hurting such cute little things?

Get the kitten mug.(November 27, 1843-September 30, 1888) The third recognized victim of Jack the Ripper. Known as "Long Liz" by friends later in life, for her last name and lanky physique.
Born Elisabeth Gustafsdottir to a peasant family west of Gothenburg, Sweden. Unlike the other victims, Liz turned to prostitution early in life and at five-foot-five, with her dark brown hair, grey eyes, and angular features, she was a striking woman. She was known among Gothenburg police and gave birth to a stillborn daughter in April, 1865. In 1866, she moved to London as a domestic servant and in 1869 she married John Thomas Stride, a carpenter 13 years older than her. Their marriage was stormy and they separated at least twice, for the last time in 1881.
After leaving Stride, Liz lived in a dosshouse and lived off of charity handouts in addition to sewing, housekeeping, and occasional prostitution. From 1885 until her death, she had an on-and-off relationship with a dockworker, Michael Kidney. While described as "calm" and "sober", Liz was arrested several times for drunk and disorderly conduct and she and Michael were often at each other's throats.

While described as "calm" and "sober", Liz was arrested several times for drunk and disorderly conduct and she and Michael were often at each other's throats.
Elizabeth Stride often told acquaintances that she'd lost her husband and two of her nine children in the sinking of the "Princess Alice" in 1878 and another survivor had kicked her in the mouth as they swam to safety, causing her to stammer. While Liz was missing the teeth in her lower left jaw, Thomas Stride actually had died of tuberculosis in 1884 and they had no children. This story was most likely to elicit sympathy and financial aid from others.
At 12:35 AM, Liz was seen speaking with a man in Dutfield's Yard, next to the International Working Men's Educational Club on Berner Street. At about 1 AM, Louis Diemshutz, the steward of the club, pulled into Dutfield's Yard with his pony and cart when the pony was startled by something in the darkness and refused to go farther.
Diemshutz dismounted the cart, knelt in front of his horse, and struck a match; he saw Liz Stride lying in the dirt with her throat cut and bleeding.
Beyond the throat wound, Liz had not been injured and her clothing was undisturbed, unlike Polly Nichols and Annie Chapman. Perhaps she was not a Ripper victim, perhaps the Ripper meant to go farther when the arrival of Diemschutz interrupted him. Having botched this killing, Jack had to flee. Leaving the East End and crossing into the City of London, he happened upon Mitre Square... and another victim, Catherine Eddowes.

Get the Elizabeth Stride mug.A viscious crime in which somebody forces somebody else into having sex, entirely without the other person's consent.
Rape is not erotic at all and it is not about sexual pleasure; rape is about power and control over another.
Usually, rape is reported as a man raping a woman; men who rape often have sex quite often and/or have a sexual dysfunction. In the case of the dysfunction, he could be taking out his frustration by rape.
Other times, men feel threatened by women and their rising status and want women back where they were, so they attack women, wanting to hurt them, embarrass them, and frighten them. This case is especially true in places where traditional gender roles are rigid and where the "ideal" male is aggressive, unfeeling, and strong.
Women, on the other hand, are totally capable of raping men. A common way that they do so is to blackmail men into sex with them.
And men can rape other men and women can rape other women just as easily as heterosexuals can rape the opposite gender.

Rape is not all right. Rape is not erotic; it's terrifying! Sexual assault takes a lifetime to cope with; such severe things are not anything that one can just "get over". And the sentence for rapists is too short! Two years in the slammer and then they're free (to rape) again?!
Oh, and when a lady says "No!", she means "No!"
Do your beat to escape rape if you can: scream for help, bite them, scratch them, punch them, hit her in the breasts, kick him in the crotch, stomp on their feet, punch them in the gut, kick them in the shins, do whatever you can to get away from them. Take a self-defense class if you don't feel that you can fight.
Remember: rape is not the victim's fault; it's the rapist's fault and the rapist's problem.

Get the rape mug.Two husky guys advanced on me. Things didn't look good the way they had their fists balled up.
Judy Garland was known largely for her husky but sweet voice, with not enough light shed on her beauty and kindness.

Get the husky mug.One's moral sense of what is right or wrong, and especially how it affects one's behavior. One's moral compass.
However much that I wanted to vegetate and indulge myself while the cleaners cleaned my house, my conscience tugged at my mind, telling me to keep busy and see if they needed anything.
A small minority of people are born without a conscience and a similar number of people never develop one. Psychopaths are those born without a conscience and most sociopaths are not given a chance to develop theirs. And hence they are not bothered or remorseful about their antisocial behavior.

Get the conscience mug.An ancient warrior queen of the Iceni, a Celtic tribe in Britain during the time of Emperor Nero. When her husband died, the Romans ignored his will, which stated that his daughters and Rome were to rule his kingdom jointly; Boudica was flogged while her daughters were raped. Infuriated, Boudica rallied her people and neighboring tribes in a violent campaign against Roman occupation.
Boudica's people sacked many Roman forts, including London and Colchester, slaughtering their inhabitants and sending the survivors running... until Suetonius regrouped his army in the Midlands and defeated the indigenous army. Boudica poisoned herself to avoid capture.

Boudica, refusing to let her Roman attackers wrong not only herself and her daughters but their people, showed the Roman Empire that women could kick ass as well as any man.

Get the Boudica mug.Scottish Gaelic term referring to a slapper, a total slut. Not to be confused with "leòdag", which simply means "a flirt".
Chan dh'atharraich a smadan a-chaoidh leòghann-craoibhe agus chan dh'atharraich leodag mar thu a dòigh le fir a-chaoidh!
(A leopard never changes its spots and a slapper like you never changes her way with men!)
