Another name for the event that happened on May 4th, 1970, when National Guard troops opened fire on students after a series of protests occuring on the campus of Kent State University and in the adjoining town of Kent, Ohio.
The incident was initially sparked by planned student protests against Nixon's announcement that the US would send troops into Laos and Cambodia during the Vietnam War.
Students started gathering to protest in the first few days of May, 1970. Within days, the conflict between students and National Guard troops called in to keep order had led to arrests, injuries, the deliberate burning of an ROTC building, and the deaths of four students.

Get the Kent State Massacre mug.Restroom avaliable for public use. Found in stores, schools, government buildings, etc. Some are OK, but many smell to high heaven, never have enough toliet paper or soap (heh, so much for sanitation), and (especially in the case of high school bathrooms) have tons of graffiti scrawled everywhere. Also are a good place to find people getting high, throwing up, or just hiding from life.
1) "I had to pee, so I ducked into a public restroom. I wish I'd just gone in the woods or something instead, it was that gross."

Get the public restroom mug.1) An expanding chain of fast-food Mexican-style restaurants that serve overstuffed burritos, tacos, burrito bols (burritos in a bowl and not a tortilla), and other such types of food. They are sort of the higher-end answer to Taco Bell, but still fairly reasonable in price. And a lot less gross, by most accounts.
The somewhat novel (but not really, because some other chains do it as well) approach to ordering food there is that they basically fill your burrito as you go along, so you can see for yourself exactly what's going into it. Also, you can customize it in this way to meet your likes and dislikes.
The burritos are so stuffed full of beans, rice, meat/guacamole, and other fillings that they are more than enough food for most people.
Has been known to cause indigestion in some people, but still pretty darn good.
(Pronounced in several different ways, including Chi-pote-lay, Chi-po-tul, and Chip-o-tlee)
2) A type of pepper.

Get the Chipotle mug.1) A song by Black Sabbath that has inspired thousands of youth across America and the world to pick up a guitar and start slamming away to the rhythm of it's chords. Probably second only to Smoke on the Water by Deep Purple in it's prevalance as one of the first songs aspiring rock guitarists learn how to play.

Get the iron man mug.A graphing calculator made by Texas Instruments. The TI-84 is capable of the same functions as the TI-83 Plus, but differs from the TI-83 Plus in several ways.
The 84 Plus has more ROM/Flash memory than the 83 Plus and a slightly better display. This is useful for storing flash applications. The 84 Plus also has a face-lifted appearance, and is slightly bulkier in design. It also costs more than the 83 Plus.
Both calculators are capable of graphing functions and equations, solving matrices, and other mathematical functions, making them useful for Algebra, particularly higher level Algebra. Both are also capable of being programmed to do various tasks, and, most importantly to high school students, they can be used to play BASIC and Flash games (ie Space Invaders, Falldown, Uncle Worm, etc.)

Person 1: Hey man, I've got math class next period... do you have a graphing calculator I could use?
Person 2: Yeah, but you better give it back. <hands calc to friend>
Person 1: You've got an 84 a TI-84 Plus? Sweet. Lemme see what games you have.
Person 2: Hey, I thought you needed it for math class...
Person 1: Well, duh. What do you think I do in math all period?

Get the TI-84 Plus mug.A hackysack is a small, usually woven fabric ball with some kind of filling that makes it soft and flexible.
The game of hackysack is usually played by standing in a circle and taking turns kicking the ball with one's feet/legs. The ball is passed to other people in the circle, and the idea is for everyone to kick it without the ball touching the ground. Because hackysack players are often found at varying skill levels, in practice this is more challenging than it sounds unless you have an experienced group of people playing.
Other variations of this game can be found as well.
Hackysack tends to be identified with stoners, hippies or wanna-be hippies, and the like, but in reality these stereotypical groups are not the only people that play it. If you've got time to kill, it can be a fun game for anyone.

Get the hackysack mug.In the United States of America, usually a low-set, sorta narrow building that is home to a bunch of bowling lanes where people play the game and sport that is bowling. Often smoky (even if smoking is supposedly not allowed), sometimes dark and dingy, often a good time to be had. Some have bars, and many have family nights, cosmic bowling (bowling with the regular lights out and flashing lights and stuff) Saturday morning leagues, and other fun activities.
Various people will gravitate to bowling alleys, including families, serious bowlers, large groups, kids, teens, and guys who like to drink beer, smoke, and hang out with their friends.
