DVD season 

It's a well known fact that all the good movies go into the cinemas at the same time. The periods between these are DVD seasons, when instead of going to the movies you just rent the movies from the last good period and watch them at home with a pizza.

Damn, there's nothing on but chick flicks. All the sci fi movies are off the circuit. It must be another DVD season.

Namibian slang for nigger.

It comes from the phrase "you can take the kaffir out of the bush, but you can't take the bush out of the kaffir"
