most extreme elimination challenge 

A long time ago (I believe the 80s) there was a game show in Japan called Takehashi's Castle. 100 people would try to take over a castle, but to get to it they'd have to go through obstacles, most of which were extremely dangerous and extreme, and if you lost the game you were eliminated.

Years later, Spike TV took the show and turned it into a show called Most Extreme Elimination Challenge, or MXC. They dubbed it badly with funny, often perverted commentary by the two host Vic Romano and Ken Blankenship, and edited out the prizes and things like that.

Break your neck, win a toaster!

"What do we always say? DON'T GET ELIMINATED!"

metrosexual 

A straight male who has a feminine side (especially caring about appearances). It used to be that when a man acted like this, people thought he was homosexual.

I used to find it sad that any man with some nice traits like dressing well or being able to cook was considered homosexual, but now I know he's metrosexual.

French 

1)The language of the people who live in France.

2)Short for French kiss which means to put your tongue in someone's mouth when you kiss them.

1)I had to learn a second language in school so I chose French.

2)While I was making out with my boyfriend, he put his tongue in my mouth, which later I learned is called a French kiss.

pro-choice

Someone who believes that abortion should be legalized.

There is a differance between pro-life and pro-choice. Pro-life people want to stop abortion because they think it is wrong. Pro-choice people may think abortion is a good or bad thing, but they want women to have the right to do it even if it's not a good choice to make.

Josephine is pro-choice, because even though she thinks abortion is wrong she believes in womens rights.
