A Canadian indie rock band with Arcade Fire connections whose first record was produced by none other than Issac Brock of Modest Mouse fame. As if all of those connections to famous people were not enough, their debut album, "Apologies to the Queen Mary", became overhyped by the online Media Machine as the Next Big Thing(r).
Leaving the indie snobbery behind, they are a damn good band who wrote some extremely good songs that are currently stuck in my head

The trash gnome is the selected person, out of a group that sits together for lunch, that throws everyone's trash away. Currently an in-joke between a few people... you know who you are.
The position of Trash Gnome should be considered as a trade-off; you have the Holy Privelege of eating lunch with us (although we hate you!) provided that you throw out all our trash.
Also known as Trash Fairy, Trash Elf, Trash Nazi.

Me: Shivam, YOU'RE the trash gnome! <a strong-handed push of the large trash can commonly found in our school>
Him: No, I don't want to be the trash gnome <push of trash can back to me> - now give me a dollar or you get ketchup all over yourself.

1. Crazy latin literary/art term for a reminder of death. Memento Mori is often seen in 17th century Dutch paintings.
2. The names of two of the best megawads ever created for DooM II.

1. If you look at that painting sideways, you'll see a memento mori.
2. After spending a week beating the expertly-crafted levels of Memento Mori II, I was blown away. Every other DooM WAD that followed was bland.

1. A trendy style of music marketed as rap music; it actually sounds more like R and B. Although the rappers look "gangsta" and have all that bling bling, they usually sing (yes. They sing instead of rap) about going to parties and getting crunk and having every girl at their call. Most - if not all - singles have a female guest. Examples: Nelly, Ludacris, Anyone who sings with Ciara.
2. Music that "waters down" the content of rap music to fit a young, pre-teen, easily lured, pop audience: see Lil' Bow Wow, Lil' Romeo.

1. -Did you go to the Ludacris concert last night? Everyone was there, you know...
--No; I don't like pop rap.

Julius must love that girl, because he's acting all rude and offensive on me, as if I'm going to take her away.
