Sawn asunder

Sawed in half by 2 guys, usually hanging with the head down and feet up.

Leroy thought the guy might want to have him sawn asunder, but the guy really just wanted to jigsaw Leroy's head a little bit.

Uptight

Walking around like you got a stick up your ass, and your shit don't stink, kind of like I do all the time.

I was born an uptight stiff, so why should I change now. I think I'm cool, but somebody is going to come along and own me one day, then I will see.

Bullshit

Someone who wants to get to the bottom of a mystery until they do and it's longer a mystery is bullshit.

The engineer invented a crystal ball machine that got to the bottom of a mystery, and still ended up destroying it because some people couldn't really handle the mystery they thought they wanted to get to the bottom of. Bullshit people are the most cynical people in the world, which is why they always want to hear positive bullshit and convince themselves that they are full of boundless optimism, when really they're just full of shit.

Hard

Something you're trying too hard to do.

Building a fire was hard to the girl, she had always had to try hard at life and common sense, she said. She always felt like she had to give over one hundred percent at everything (and that everyone else did also), especially sports (but none of this came from any authority figure or family member actually instilling this idea in her at a young age). She also thought she had to make everyone else's life difficult in the process.

Coronavirus

Almost like something out of the movie I am Legend or Contagion, the major difference between ife and a movie being that there never was any such thing as normal human behavior to deteriorate from. People's lives were always dysfunctional before the pandemic, as they always will be. The normal people who always seem to want things to change and function more together are the ones you want to watch.

The coronavirus isn't strong enough to keep eople from remaining as dysfunctional as they were before. They don't have to agree on anything, they don't have to get together or get anything together.

Behind the times

Somebody who hasn't moved on since 500 AD.

Clovis is now behind the times as a barbarian. He's so unsophisticated, uncivilized, and behind his time.
