box head

A Swede.
The original box heads were Swedes, and others such as Albanians or Russians are merely Johnny-come-latelys to the group.
Have you ever noticed how Swedes have heads shaped like boxes? That must be why they are called box heads.
D'oh.

I drive a boxy Volvo because I am a box head.

College as Trade School

College as Trade School is another example of the commodification of modern life spills over into post-secondary education in alarming ways. The historic benefit of college previously included the perceived civilizing effect and greater awareness of the sweep of history and human progress. That aspect has been reduced in the headlong rush toward getting one's ticket punched to enter the workforce in a more favorable position. That is basically like getting a Fast Pass to jump ahead in line at an amusement park, only some readers and riders will get nauseous from the event.

If you dare to think about education for education's sake, or the immense satisfaction and richness of learning and appreciating a world beyond your immediate surroundings, then you will be ostracized in the 'get ahead now because you will miss out' ethic that is the hallmark of the current zeitgeist.
I paid a fortune for a BS, and found out about College as Trade School. I was surrounded by other BS people in a mad scramble to drink through the term and Google my derivative research paper topics.

He didn't study enough to make it into a good university, so he had to settle for College as Trade School. that condemned him to a life in (gasp!) middle class. At least he had been informed of all the great benefits of joining the consumerist cause and could now spend his way into lifelong debt on top of his student loans.

She only averaged 550 on each of her SAT sections and had to go to College as Trade School instead of to a great university.

He was desperate to break out of his sad chav existence, even if his ticket out was going to College as Trade School. That was better than a dreary live stuck in some Council flat playing bad football on Saturdays and chainsmoking. Thus continued the slide into the Malthusian hell of the early new millenium.

Demographics is destiny.

Minnesota

dreary, boring, insect-infested state populated by people that mangle pronunciation of common words.
Prone to clueless politicians and misguided social programs that induce children to run away from home.
Almost as bad a state as Wisconsin.
I got transferred to Minnesota so I quit my job and started drinking.
Everyone I ran into in St. Paul was a box head.

G-Spot

the Grafenburg (or Von Grafenburg) Spot, which isn't really a spot at all but an area of very sensitive nerve endings. It could seem like a spot to the uninitiated.
Stimulation brings her pleasure, and may be done either manually or with your penis. For best results using the latter, put a pillow under her rear end to elevate her hips, and you will find that each push will tickle her fancy like nobody's business.
When using manual stimulation, imagine that you are with Penelope Cruz or Salma Hayek and try using the index and middle fingers together like you were playing Spanish guitar, whilst using your thumb or your tongue on the clitoris and related naughty bits.

Targét

the correct way to spell Target if you want to pretend that it is a French store, or at least not too low class, like saying Jacques Pennay for JC Penney. A store that is perceived to be slightly upscale from WalMart.
I see that you are a Targét snob since you won't shop at WalMart.
I got these nifty plastic doodads over at Targét.
I drove over from the trailer park to Targét to get some new Depends because mine were worn out.
I find the hot girls shop at Targét and they are looking to hook up with dudes, but get your shots first...

Narrow Boat

a canal boat used in the wonderful waterways of England, and other European countries.
Often used as a floating residence, notably by the hippies in Amsterdam in their not-so-narrow variations. If you want a change of scenery, untie the line and motor away through the locks.
We went on holiday for three weeks through the Midlands canals in our narrow boat and hit every pub along the way. Ian only beached it twice and Catherine was quite accommodating to help relaunch.
My mate moors his narrow boat in France and keeps a bicycle on board for jaunts through the countryside. He has logged over 10,000 km in the last three years.

5th ring of hell

The 5th ring of hell is the ring that is reserved for bad spellers.
If you say "Your going to hell...", you are signing up for that one-way tour. You should say "You're going to hell..." or "You are going to hell...".
He failed to pass the GED and is on his way to the 5th ring of hell.
