A process by which adding a location to a United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization's world heritage list, instead of aiding preservation of the site, only draws overtourism which leads to further degradation and enshittification of the heritage its proponents sought to preserve.
Italian journalist Marco D'Eramo described UNESCOcide as a "kiss of death" where an attempt to preserve or protect a notable site by listing it as UNESCO world heritage backfires. By drawing overtourism and wreckreation to what were sites of great natural or cultural merit. it all too often cures the disease by killing the patient.
In acknowledging that a site is worth protecting, a UNESCO listing contributes to its destruction, deterioration or commodification until a world landmark becomes a mess of souvenir stands, greasy fast food and high prices which drive the original locals or natives out of the community they created.
By pricing everyone else out, this leaves just the promoters, tourists and hucksters.
There's only one place on Earth that's safe from UNESCOcide: Taiwan. The United Nations refuses to acknowledge that Taiwan even exists in their misguided haste to appease the communist mainland. Maybe we should hide there?

Get the UNESCOcide mug.A primitive version of what today would most likely be a "mutual fund" or similar instrument.
The origins of the term date to the stock market bubble of the Roaring Twenties, where at the peak of the frenzy individual speculators were offering just short of "$600 for radio" - in this case, not an actual AM radio receiver, but one share of stock in RCA, which was being hyped in those days as vociferously as Internet-related stocks at the turn of the millennium. A share valued at $1 or $1.50 less than a decade ago went for the equivalent of $568 before a 1:5 stock split; aviation stocks were similarly overpriced.
That was a lot of money in those days, so those who couldn't afford to buy a stock directly would collectively buy into a bucket fund and the bucket fund would buy the stock, hold it briefly, then sell it to repay the individual speculators.
Eventually the bubble burst and everyone lost their shirt.

It seems that everyone these days is peddling mutual funds, exchange traded funds, funds, funds, funds. Banks, trust companies, credit unions, insurance companies... all are getting on the bandwagon and unleashing their most voracious commission salespeople. No wonder, though, as the various inscrutable offerings are a nightmare of fees - front-end loads, back-end loads, management expense ratios - to the point where the modern equivalent to a bucket fund is a leaky bucket where 2% of your life slavings may well be gone every year just in fees. Over a quarter century, that might add up to half your capital.
So basically, the leaky bucket fund with its active management has to outperform the market by 2% annually every darned year just to cover all of the bull-shovel fees. Not all of them do. It's a little like a stockbroker proudly pointing out his shiny new boat at the marina only to be asked "but where are the customer's yachts?"

Get the bucket fund mug.A mix of two concepts:
"LA" is presumably not the Lennox and Addington revered by Avril Lavigne fans worldwide but Los Angeles, a podunk California town which attracts would-be actresses and models from all over. Many have perfect faces.
Conversely, Oakland is a city in the Bay Area in which many who have been priced out of San Francisco by the Silicon Valley rabble and the dot-com bubble have taken refuge. A black man and a rapper, Sir Mix-A-Lot would be looking for ghetto booty - a booty that is large, round, and bootylicious.
So, presumably, the best of both worlds.

Seattle-based rapper Sir Mix-A-Lot saw the Oakland girls might not have been China doll beautiful like the A-list cinema stars from Burbank, but were particularly endowed in another area.
This phrase, LA face with an Oakland booty, is talking about a female who has both.

Get the LA face with an Oakland booty mug.Someone hard-up enough that, should they be desperate to try sex, they just might have to buy it.
In sex work, this person (usually male) is the client - not the provider.

I tried going fully bisexual, assuming that being willing to sexually service both men and women would double my chances, Woody Allen style.
Unfortunately, two times nothing is still nothing.
I may just have to give up and cross the line into being buysexual - where, if I desire sex, I shall simply have to buy it.

Get the bisexual mug.A big fat arse that just will not quit. The cum dump truck is a fusion of two concepts:
A "dump truck arse" is a serious badonkadonk, a ghetto booty. Not just a little bubble butt.
A "cum dump" or "cum dumpster" is a female or receptive partner willing to accept mobile sperm bank deposits from multiple males, a walking spermbank.
Combine the two and get some serious bootay that just will not quit.

That gal has a seriously-fine cum dumptruck of a bootay, she can haul away load after load and still have room for more. I would like nothing more than to drop to my knees and kiss that amazing badonkadonk. The bigger the cushion, the better the pushin'.
I like big butts, I cannot lie. Baby got back!

Get the cum dumptruck mug.A parody ad which mocks abstinence-based sex ed; the spoof PSA instead promotes anal sex.
Narrated by former PBS Kids Sprout announcer Melanie Martinez, the public service message is "I've got big plans for my future: a good college, a career, maybe even my own business some day but one thing I'm not planning on is getting pregnant. That's why I choose anal sex. I mean sure it hurts a little and I wind up walking funny for a day or two but I think my future's worth it."
Anal sex. The smart choice for your future.

The joke public service announcements were removed in July 2006 after PBS Kids Sprout sacked Melanie Martinez, host of the network's nightly The Good Night Show, for an acting history (which has nothing to do with the public broadcaster) which included a minor part appearing in two brief spoof videos titled Technical Virgin.
