Chicago Typewriter

n. A Thompson submachine gun, as used by Prohibition-era gangsters. So-named because the sound of a Tommy being fired in the distance resembled the sound of typing on a typewriter, and because the weapon was in popular use throughout south-side Chicago in Al Capone's day.

Vinnie always wrote his enemies on a Chicago typewriter.

japornime

n. Japanese pornographic animation.

Also known as anime or japornimation, this type of animated cartoon is populated with characters typically having large eyes, cute figures, bright costumes, and shrill voices. Plot is superficial and of little interest to the audience, who are really watching to catch a glimpse of underage schoolgirls engaged in sexually suggestive activity (see Sailor Moon).

The defining intererest, and preferred masturbatory fodder, for the wapanese, although they are usually too ashamed to admit it publicly.

Every afternoon, Geoff-san would hole up in his dorm room, close the curtains, get out his laser disc player, and proceed to vigorously wank off to "LA Blue Girl" japornime.
