Solid Mantis's definitions
Refusing to acknowledge one's own negative feelings and double standards, instead choosing to poke at or call out other people's.
The guy/girl thought that he/she was not a hypocrite, while everyone else thought he/she was a hypocrite too. Cynicism masked by a smile is still cynicism, not optimism, its hypocrisy just like everybody else's.

Get the Hypocrisymug. The girl would shoot first, then run second, or would cut first, then run second. She always acted tough, and preached a tough walk, but really she was a sprinter by nature and always had been.

Get the Sprintermug. You don't think of as many sports dynasties from cities much smaller than Atlanta, Dallas, St Louis, Balimore or Cleveland. Its not unrealistic to think a team from Milwaukee, Portland, or Sacramento will have to do some extraordinary things just to get a championship in the same championship game, and hardly ever do you hear about several years in a row they re back again for another title.
Outside of hockey, you don't hear as many people saying the Trail Blazers or the Kings are back as you do the Bronx Bombers or the Lakers. Some teams really do have the strength in numbers to make a dynasty, even if people in a smaller city are told their teams owners has more buying power than the next guy.

Get the Dynastymug. The violence committed against a few females in prison about a hundred years ago happened to males in prison all the time, and calling a male one who had the spirit of a saint for bearing it would be laughable to most people, since its normal for males to fuck each other up. Its another double standard females use to try and make their lives and bodies seem to be worth more in the eyes of many than the lives of males. If a male dope dealer is a parasite, so is a female dope dealer, simple.

Get the Double standardmug. A male who ends up the bad guy when he doesn't let his kids or family walk all over him, while females get a round of applause and fans for the same behavior.
A father becomes an asshole when he doesn't let people around him fuck with him, a female becomes a heroine for the exact same thing. It's a double standard feminists don't talk much about.

Get the Fathermug. New Jersey is between DE, PA, NY and the ocean. If you were from the part of New Jersey outside New York, you're from North Jersey (not New York), and if you're from the part of New Jersey outside Philly, you're from South Jersey (not Philly). Most people from New Jersey already know that and would have it no other way. Going to Philly for events, dining, shopping, to visit people, and so on isn't having started life there. Knowing a few people there doesn't make them the people you started your life around.
New Jersey is between a lot of different things up north, though most people don't confuse it with anything else.

Get the New jerseymug. Being honest because people would find out who you are if you weren't honest isn't really the same thing as being honest or direct when you have every option or oppurtunity not to be.
Turning in a bunch of money when you could keep it doesn't make somebody an honest person, since it's one action. A cop who turns in a million dollars has bought his right to do anything corrupt he wants to do by making himself look like he is honest all the time (which is what honesty really is, honesty at all times, when nobody cares or pays attention). The truth is, nobody is honest one hundred percent of the time, it's really a matter of what degree of honesty somebody usually gives you when they have the option to be dishonest or many other things that lets you know what degree of trustworthy kind of person they are.
