conk

Older British slang for "nose."

"I… hit him repeatedly on the conk. My reason for this was that his conk was covered with carbuncles, and I thought I should vex him by taking such liberties with his conk—which in fact I did."

cutting edge

adjective form of "the Cutting Edge."

When something is "cutting edge" is is at the current limits of scientific/technological/artistic progress. The newest and most advanced.

In 1903, the Wright Brothers used what were then cutting edge techniques, such as a wind tunnel, to design their plane.

This magazine is so cutting edge! It's so much cooler than those conservative, out-of date newspapers.

sad truth

Most definitions for Israeli are hateful. Most definitions for Palestine show no political bias towards one side or the other.

The sad part… world governments are like that. Israel never says bad things, but all Arabs and Christians curse us for retaliating to suicide bombs on civilian targets

-9/11 was bad, but if it happened to ISraelis i wouldn't care!
-Dude, don;t be such an ignorant skinhead!
-Oh yeah, well… Jesus loves me.
-I doubt that.
