Yale Rule

The Yale Rule states that within five minutes of meeting someone who attended Yale, you will be informed of that fact. This is rather humorous, particularly given that Yale isn't that great a school.

"Greetings, my name is Throckmorton Q. Covington; pleased to meet you. I say, it's a fine day. It reminds me of when I was a young lad attending Yale...."

Ha! The Yale Rule's been proven once again!

sda

abbrev. "Seventh Day Adventists." A bunch of jew-wannabes. They don't say "Saturday," but call it the "Sabbath," and don't do any work between sundown Friday and sundown Saturday. They don't eat pork either or have sex until they're married, and they run around crying about the end times and how everyone treats them 'cause they're different (duh).

I have to work this Saturday because my SDA coworker can't come into the office and write code, but he can go mountain climbing because that isn't "work." What a fuck.

PTT

An acronym that stands for "Push To Talk." It refers to a particular mode of cell phone usage wherein one holds the device in front of one's face, yelling at it and listening to its tinny speaker which continuously squawks an annoying chirping noise. A way for white trash and other lower orders to amuse themselves by pretending they're talking on radios just like policemen.

If you're using PTT on your cell phone, you're a waste of skin and should just kill yourself right now.

dragon wagon

n. A car--generally either a hybrid, a 15-year-old station wagon, or a rustbucket Geo--that features this bumper sticker on the rear:

"Meddle not in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and good with ketchup."

It's actually legal to run this car off the road, pull the driver out, and beat them to death.

I saw a dragon wagon on the freeway the other day, so I killed the occupant, who was one of those annoying SCA types, before he could breed.

fruit salad

n. An item rumored to exist at certain parties, consisting of a bowl filled with random pills. Partygoers dip into the bowl and experience random effects.

Back in the '80s--the "Just Say No" era--in elementary school health class, they warned us of the dangers of fruit salad. Of course, such a thing has never existed, but the important thing was to scare us away from drugs.
