cogitator's definitions
A rock band that does more than rock. They have released 4 studio albums and have been around since 2000. Their songs are invarriably emotional in at least one way and always at least a bit angsty or angry. If you are having a hard time, put in a Linkin Park album and listen to it alone for a couple hours.
Linkin Park is a great band compared to the average garbage. I won't call them the best because I can't possible judge for everyone. Anyway, their work began in 2000 with Hybrid Theory- a great peice of Nu-metal. Their second album was Meteora, which was in a more "emo" direction. Their third album, 2007's Minutes to Midnight was a radical departure from their earlier Nu-metal sound. The album was much more melodic, but contained their first F-bombs. They were also more political and hte album featured a mix between the downcast and fiery songs. Their fourth album, 2010's A Thousand Suns is an odd album. It is apocalyptic and very melodic in a downcast way. It is the logical continuation of Minutes to Midnight and is the most artistic. It plays more like one long song.

Get the Linkin Park mug.The term varies a lot between contexts, so, to avoid looking like a dumbass, I'll stick with the ones I know.
#1: Liberal, adjective, non-political.
Stating using a large dosage of something or having mostly nonrestrictive views about issues such as sex or religion.
Example: I used a liberal amount of sugar to make those cookies. I am fairly liberal when it comes to what Church I go to. I am liberal and venturesome in the bedroom.
#2: Liberal, adjective, political.
Example:
Due to the sheer amounts of hate and propoganda floating around here, I will try to be as objective as possible.
Liberals are generally on the left side of the political spectrum. This is the same side as communists, fascists, and socialists. However, most liberals are not communists, or fascists, or socialists to any significant degree. Communism is to the far end of Liberalism. It is about the destruction of all class and property distinctions between people, like China during the Great Leap Forward. Fascism is a strong, centrist dictatorship, but is not communist. An example would be Suddam Hussein's Iraq.

Socialism is the blanket term that most accurately describes what many moderate liberals believe. It is like a watered-down form of communist in it's media-presented form. However, it is not that simple. It is about the government and the people aiding one another and distributing supplies and wealth according to a system. The degree of socialism ranges strongly, from almost non-existent levels such as in ancient Rome's alimentia, which was free bread and vegetable soup to the poor. The extreme end would be Hitler's Germany, which had programs for the betterment of certain Germans. It brought the country out of WW1, but it turned essentially fascism with social security.
I think I've said enough. If you haven't figured it out already, I am a Liberal. Thats the end of part 1. I'd post more, but someone implemented limits on how long entries can be.
