Infravert

These people are sensed as heat rather than seen and heard. Out of sight out of mind? Not at all, people can tell they are not alone, but they cannot prove it to themselves.

The house down the street growing up was not haunted. The man who lived there was just an infravert, that's all.

False shark

One way you know people that say that they are sharks are not sharks is sharks don't try to run off other animals. Sharks can also swim without the use of tanks and scuba diving apparatus, that's another way you know that people aren't like sharks, even if they claim to be.

He/she must have been in a silly mood when he/she claimed to be a shark, but nobody thought he/she wasn't a false shark when he/she made the claim.

Cam Newton

The day Cam Newton stopped having fun playing football was the day Cam Newton started thinking about winning and losing, and started blaming racism and all the outside stuff that didnt matter. Since racism doesnt define who and what somebody is, neither do slogans and phrases, or police incidents, even if theres a lot of focus on these things by the media. The media doesnt define all of what somebody is, it doesnt encapsulate somebody.

No team wants to lose, no team likes to lose, it's not human to enjoy losing. Still, theres not much of a point to winning if you're not having a good time, and when winning becomes more important to you than having a good time, youre missing the point of it all. The point is not to win sometimes, it's how you got to where you're going that you go back to if you get lost, or lose sight of what you were once trying to (or succeeding at) do(ing). People in Carolina didnt want to see Cam Newton go, but he did have a choice, he wasnt left with no choice.

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 also thought she had to make everyone else's life difficult in the process.

Actor

A person who gets paid to do shit you do in everyday life, only with a more expensive hairstyle.

Jim- I brush my teeth, have conversations with strangers on a bench, and drive around town why am I not a millionaire.
Kevin- You're not an actor Jim, you're not a millionaire so millionaires laugh at you and your lifestyle because their hair is more expensive to maintain. They think you're homeless since you're not in the millionaires club.
Jim-So I'm supposed to respect them for having more money and making money their way? I thought respect was earned for everyone, not just some of us.
Kevin- Yea that's how it works Jim, it's their world you live in, they own it so it's theirs.

Gold digger

The kind of hypocrite who tells males her worth is not determined by money, but shows them with her actions that theirs is determined by their bank account, which sets another double standard for each sex.

The gold digger says that her worth isn't determined by money, but that a broke male ain't shot, without a good reason for thinking this way.

Celibate

No fucking.

Some of the people trying to accuse the guy of being a womanizer didn't know he had been celibate for almost a decade (the way he had spent most of his life). He didn't think he was a priest, or cleaner/better than anybody else, it was just the way he lived, the same way people who decide live the opposite life live the opposite life. He didn't think their accusations made a lot of sense.
