Collection basket

Money to keep the well oiled machine going, functioning.
Anything dysfunctional is no good for the machine, it's designed to have interchangeable, functional parts that keep it running. It takes lots of money, so there's always a collection basket to keep it going.

Reality show friendship

The fake guy/girl has mostly reality show friendships, that must be why he/she is on tv so much. Fuck a reality show friendship.

Underconfidence

It's not a realistic expectation to expect a first year team to go out and win every game. Underconfidence is when if you think you'll win about 3 games, you end up winning about 3 games, even though you had the ability to do what you didn't think you would do. The point is not to win games, it's not to start a habit of defeating yourself early when really you have the ability to go further with a little more confidence at the times you would usually lose confidence. If you're playing to win, you're going to fear failure and feel like you have to win, but if you're just going out and working on the things you're rusty at, trying to do what you didn't do last week or yesterday, not giving up on yourself, and the work you're doing is always in progress and never finished, you have room to improve anything you want to improve.
Underconfidence can get you stuck somewhere you wouldn't be stuck at a time when your confidence level wasn't as low.

Free country

If your country is not a free country in a pandemic, it's not really an entirely free country, you're just being told it is a free country by the entity that controls your country.
Telling people they live in a free country is a good way to get them to comply with an agenda and turn them into obedient puppets. Nothing is free, you have to fight to get something. Compromise is a good way to lose who you are and any sense of rights that you have.

Get serious

Why spend time on getting hard that you can spend on getting serious?
Get serious about life, everything is not a game or for sport to everybody.

Dexter holland

A guy from Orange County that makes fun of kids from somewhere like Omaha for wearing Fubu or listening to rap music, but has dreadlocks in his own hair.
I was one of those kids that thought Dexter Holland wrote the song Pretty Fly for a white guy about himself until recently. He just seems like a poser who tries to make fun of posers in real life, even if you would think he was a badass from his lyrics.

Senior officer

What both officers in the Minneapolis area killings were, they weren't new guys.
It doesn't seem to be any coincidence that both officers getting nailed to a cross, as some would call it, are senior officers and not newcomers.
