Airplane!

Hilarious 1980 movie. After the navigator and both pilots are among multiple people on an airline heading to Chicago from Los Angeles that get sick from some strange foodbourne illness, a doctor and two flight attendants seek the help from everyday man Ted Stryker (the ex-lover of one of the flight attendants) who has trouble just going near a plane since he made what he believed to be a bad move during an airstrike in the Vietnam War.

The movie is known for it's very random humor (i.e. a group of reporters is getting info about the crisis when one of them says "Okay boys, lets get some pictures". They then walk over to a wall with framed photographs of airlines and randomly start taking them down and walking out the door).

I got annoyed when my friend kept uttering the "don't call me Shirley" joke from Airplane!

Cincinnati Subway

A term used to describe something that goes unfinished and is seen as a failure for whoever was involved.

Named after the abandoned, unused Subway system below the streets of Cincinnati.

I've really fallen behind in Spanish this year. I don't think I can finish but I really don't want it to turn into a Cincinnati subway

Wax Trax

A Chicago based record label formed in 1978, famous for signing early Industrial music acts including, but not limited to Ministry, KMFDM, and My life with the thrill kill kult. Very little remains of the original label after it went Bankrupt in 1992 and was purchased by TVT records, although a store with connections to the original Chicago label still operates in Denver.

Mark is really fond of old Wax Trax Industrial music.

Holiday Comedown

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.

Similar to Holiday Withdrawal

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

Linkin Park

Contrary to what most people are saying on this site, LP are actually a good group. Yes they aren't as good as other Nu-Metal bands like Korn and Disturbed (I wouldn't even consider them Nu-Metal or any kind of Metal music really, more like straight up Rap Rock) but they are still a very creative, talented band that's a helluva lot better than most Rap/Pop crap on the radio today.

Linkin Park is not great, but still good. Too many people are just closed minded.
