Get the Government/Media fear mug.Killer song by White Zombie done for the soundtrack to the Beavis and Butthead movie. The song is known for it's African/Industrial combo drum beat. Sadly this is the last song they made and released before they split in 1998.
I got grounded for breaking everything in the room rocking out to Ratfinks, Suicide Tanks, and Cannibal Girls by White Zombie

Get the Ratfinks, Suicide Tanks, and Cannibal Girls mug.Song by English Post-Punk band Joy Division from their Licht und Blindheit EP as well as at least one of their greatest hits albums. The song gained huge popularity when Nine Inch Nails did an amazing cover of it for the soundtrack to the 1994 movie The Crow.
Someone take these dreams away
that point me to another day.
A Duel of personalities
that stretch all true realities.
-From Dead Souls by Joy Division and later covered by NIN
RIP Ian Curtis and Brandon Lee
and thank you Trent Reznor.

Get the Dead Souls mug.A strict dress code set up by schools to keep students in line. Originally used by Catholic and Private schools, uniforms have become a growing trend in public schools since the mid-90s. Uniforms in Public Schools are often put in to cut down on fights, rough housing, and gang activity and boost overall student performance, which turns out unsuccessful more than 99% of the time.

Get the School Uniform mug.The feeling after New Years for the first part of January where you realize the holidays are officially over and not only will you have to wait 11 months to re-experience the joy you felt during this time, you have to return to the norm (school, work, etc.) knowing there won't be much to look forward to for a while unfortunately. Usually lasts about a week to a month, though extreme cases may not wear off until spring.

Poor Tom. He's started his holiday comedown knowing Christmas is over and he has to go back to school on Monday.

Get the Holiday Comedown mug.The NBA's equivalent of the Black Eyed Peas.
Once a very respected and talented player. The longtime leader of the once-lowly Cleveland Cavaliers, actually leading them to successful playoff runs, even bringing them to the finals in 2007, though they lost to the San Antonio Spurs. During this time he was on par with basketball legend Michael Jordan, even taking his number 23 as a sign of respect. However, all the success and fame went to his head and convinced him that fame and money were more important than talent and respect. When his contract with the Cavs expired at the end of the 2009-10 season, Lebron used all the damage that fame did to him and decided to sign with the already dominant Miami Heat. They made it to the finals that year, but fortunately the Dallas Mavericks beat them, giving Lebron a reality check

Get the Lebron James mug.A movie made and advertised as an action or disaster movie with more comedy dialogue than serious, making people wonder if it's supposed to be funny or if the script writers failed. Movies like these are usually critically panned but box office successes.
Deep Impact is a good example of a hidden comedy. It seems like a serious film about the end of the world and the survival of humanity, though quite a bit of dialogue sounds more like it came from a Mike Judge film.
