Ron Paul
A batshit insane politician who presents himself as Libertarian fringe candidate, but in reality is no different than your average Conservative-Republican. Claims to be a champion of personal liberty when he has voiced opposition to gay rights and separation of church and state and has come out as rather hostile towards immigrants, minorities and pretty much anyone who isn't white. People who support him are mostly college kids and young adults who jumped on the bandwagon when they heard he wants to legalize drugs or ex-republicans who still wanted to hate the left and the government.
If you support Ron Paul, I urge you to read a little more about him, and think for yourself if he's truly that great. I'm not saying don't support him, I myself actually agree with him on some issues, but don't just join a political movement just because it's becoming this cool new thing to do.

Digimon Adventure
Known outside of Japan as Digimon season 1, arguably the high point of the entire Digimon franchise. The story follows seven (later eight) kids who after experiencing a snowstorm at their summer camp, are transported to the 'Digital World' and are befriended by Digimon creatures who assist them in getting back to their own world, but later find themselves fighting forces that threaten not only the Digital world, but their own as well.
Digimon adventure is not only a great kids anime, it's a fantastic story on it's own, filled with great action and lots of emotion to keep viewers interested. Everything related to Digimon after was a bitter disappointment. Digimon adventure 02 (season 2), a direct sequel to the first season, was really good but a letdown compared to the first. Every other season after should not even be considered part of the same franchise.

Ex-hippie
One who at one point identified as a traditional hippie, sharing the same viewpoints on politics, culture, sex, and drugs, but have since cleaned up and taken up normal lives. While most ex-hippies remain politically liberal on most issues, their views tend to be more to the right than their views in their hippie days, while several take more conservative approaches to the drugs they once did, especially involving their own children.
For most ex-hippies, the same bands they liked back in the day remain with them. More often than not it remains the only thing about them that doesn't change.

Lame Duck Film
A theatrical movie, usually a major blockbuster, that runs past it's designated release season (i.e. summer releases playing into fall, holiday movies in January or later, etc.) to the point where only a few theaters are showing them anymore, and there are usually less than ten people in the audience, and chances are most of them already saw it during it's initial release period.
Jane: Hey you wanna catch that new superhero flick this weekend?
Bob: I don't know, the theaters will be awfully crowded since it'll be just coming out. Let's wait a month or so until it becomes a lame duck film.

militant suburbanite
A person, often an adult in their 40s or 50s, who resides in any suburb of a major city and holds the firm belief everything they and their family need is in their suburb and others surrounding it and rarely, if ever, venture into the core city, either out of fear of being a victim of a crime (even if they live near a city with low crime rates) or out of contempt for the cities mostly liberal/open-minded view points that clash with their staunch conservative ideas.
Militant suburbanites are not very common in communities within 15 miles of the core city and make up less than half a metro area's population, but they are not common to spot, as they feel the need to conform to whatever their neighbors and/or coworkers are doing. Militant Suburbanites that do venture into the city usually tend to stick to the most crowded areas of the city and will avoid any form of public transportation.

Militant Suburbanites that do venture into the city usually tend to stick to the most crowded areas of the city and will avoid any form of public transportation.
There are three levels of Militant Suburbanite:
Level 1-most willing to venture into a core city, though only do so for certain occasions, usually being sporting events, some concerts and conventions/trade shows/conferences, travel (driving through in a car, heading to the airport, etc.) and work, if their job is in the city. All other entertainment and shopping they feel can be done in the suburbs.
Level 2-will venture into the core city from time to time, but usually only for work and travel
Level 3-rarest of all. Is absolutely not willing to venture into the core city at all. They will go out of their way to not find a job there and will even refuse to drive through there on the highway.

hidden comedy
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.

Brian Deneke
March 9, 1978-December 12, 1997, Brian Deneke was a Punk Rocker from Amarillo, TX, who was murdered by jock Dustin Camp due to Deneke's Punk Rock look. Camp only received Ten years probation and a $10,000 fine (though did serve brief prison time for violating the terms of his probation). The killing raised questions as to how tolerant Amarillo really is.
Brian Deneke was a good kid who was just living his life the way he wanted to. Dustin Camp is a miserable piece of shit who should be behind bars for the next 5 decades.
RIP Brian Theodore Deneke.
