Individual

In order to be an individual, a person has to be indivisible. Since you can somebody in half, you can divide somebody into two pieces.

Raz's friends thought he was an individual until his captors sawed him in half. There were two distinct halves of Raz, so from then on they knew he wasn't indivisible.

Vessel

Duality doesn't allow a weaker vessel. You don't see one side of the yin and the yang dominating the other in Eastern religions.

If males really thought that females thought they were the weaker vessel, they wouldn't have made the queen the piece that could make moves none of the other pieces could make when they came up with chess. Males were smart enough not to go for that kind of thinking, that there is such a thing as a weaker vessel, and that you can underestimate somebody that tries to tell you that they are one.

Activist

The worst kind of pacifist, the kind that would kill to prove they're not weak.

The activist would slaughter people before letting them call him/her out on being weak.

Goody two shoes

Someone who runs to their mother over shit they started ever since they were a little kid, since people don't change.

The goody two shoes looked like an angel in her mother's eyes only. She had a face only a mother could love (as her own father said of her when she was a young kid, in his words, and I quote).

Blue/gray divided family

A lot like a Hatfield/McCoy divided family, a blue/gray divided family isn't meant to be functional. As much as the more pretentious family members tend to hide the lack of civility for an everything's fine facade, a blue/gray divided family doesn't work out in the long run.

There was nobody left in the Hatfield/McCoy divided family after they all decided they would be the last family member standing, or every other family member was coming with them, which might have been for the best, as nobody would miss some of them. The blue/gray divided family next door snuck in surplus ammunition.

Surrogate

A surrogate is a substitute.

A surrogate man/boyfriend/husband is a lot like a substitute teacher. The husband/teacher gets sick and the surrogate, like the substitute wonders what the fuck am I doing here and how do I teach these kids anything they're not mine? The surrogate is a lot like the substitute teacher who can't pronounce your name, everybody who meets a surrogate wants the real teacher/husband/man/boyfriend back quick.

Precocious

A guy or girl that hits puberty at 6.

Guy 1-Do you see that kid driving? That kid shouldn't be out on the road.
Guy 2-He has a mustache.
Guy 1- Don't you have to be 54 or 56 inches tall to drive though? His mother and father just let him drive like that.
Guy 2-He's a precocious kid, let him drive.
