WV Specials

Short form for 'white van' audio speakers. If someone in a white van approaches you - usually in a mall parking lot - and says they have a surplus of home audio speakers they're willing to literally 'give away', that's because they can't even do that....until they meet someone like you. You think this is a break in life....imagine full high fidelity sound for only $100! Truth is they are acoustically crap to begin with and will only last a few hours when pushed. If your 'lucky' enough to find a carpeted set and you have a cat, you could ditch the speakers and add play toys your kitty would love scratching these boxes.

I have a pair of WV Specials that still have one tweeter working after the party ended. I just bought them last week.

Named after a popular label maker often found in your local stationary department.

That dymo just called her a slut based on the smell of her perfume.

tortured genius

You are smart. Brilliant in fact. And while it's a blessing, it's also a curse. Your head is filled with everything - grand ideas, insufferable worries, and a good deal of angst.

You're uniquely brilliant - and completely misunderstood.
Not like you really want anyone to understand you anyway. You're pretty happy being an island.

Shakespeare, Van Gough , Michaelangelo and Mozart have varying degress of genius.

Rock stars, poets, painters and artists are current pop culture tortured geniuses. The genius of geniuses managed to keep the wolf from the door.

S A

Short for social anxiety. Social anxiety is a term used to describe an experience of anxiety (emotional discomfort, fear, apprehension or worry) regarding social situations, interactions with other and being evaluated or scruntinized by other people.

A man finds it difficult to walk down the street because he’s self-conscious and feels that people are watching him from their windows. Worse, he may run into a person on the sidewalk and be forced to say hello to them. He’s not sure he can do that. His voice will catch, his "hello" will sound weak, and the other person will know he’s frightened.
