Affirmative reaction
Affirmative reaction the person responsible for hiring employees crosses the line and illegally excludes qualified people from consideration because of their personal, political, spiritual, and/or economic beliefs.
Monica could you please explain your employment practices?
Yes, we have affirmative reaction. We exclude everyone who will not agree with us on every decision. We want some one who will not question bad judgement and illegal activities. This is a very open policy, many of these people are highly unqualified, and who would not normally be hired.

He may not be the smartest guy on Wall Street but his intelligence amplification techniques greatly increase his ability to think. Now with a lot of moral amplification he should be able to use his moral compass to chart a new course in life.

wheels on meals
I'm staving, I'd get a wheels on meals, if gas wasn't so expensive.
You could ride your bike down the road, I'm sure there's a wheels on meals around here somewhere.
Yea, lets bike over to the canopy road by the park. I've seen one there everyday, and they're guaranteed to be fresh, and peanut feed.
Damn, there ain't nothing like slow food, to kill your hunger pangs.

Slugs
Slugs are people who anonymous ride-share, with drivers who need an extra body or two to get into the high-occupancy lanes.
Slugs line up for a free ride at designated spots such as commuter parking lots, street corners, and bus stops where drivers use them to get in high-occupancy lanes to make commuting for the driver faster.
Slugs is reported to come from bus drivers, who were waived off by people at bus stops who were waiting to be picked up by commuters. The "slugs" term was orginally used as the term for a counterfeit coins. In this case it is used for "fake" bus riders, neigher of which pay.
The slugging process works like this. A driver comes up to a line of people going to work or the city and announces his destination to the "caller" who is the person who is at the head of the line. The "caller" then relays the destination information to the slugs behind, to find the persons in the front of the line going to the same place.
There is a slug etiquitte, which includes never giving the driver your name, no eating, no drinking, extremely limited sell phone use, no messing with the music, no messing with the windows, and no heavy pollical, religious debates etc.
Counterfeit coins used in subways and buses are also known as slugs.

Don't you hate being on highway with bumper to bumper traffic, and see these crazy car poolers in the high occupancy vehicle lanes zoom by.
No, when traffic is really bad I pick up a couple slugs. I think of it as carpooling lite. Where you have the freedom to do what you want when you want, fast, on fast highways.
But do you really want to have a bunch of strangers in your car?
When you commute with slugs there is a certain amount of etiquitte that you don't find with some car poolers, who think they have the same rights in your car as they do in their car.

slugging
Slugging is anonymous ride-share, with drivers who need extra people to legally drive on high-occupancy lanes on congested highways.
Slugs are the people lined up for rides in convient areas that are accessible to commuters. See definition for slugs.
When slugging there is etiquitte, and etitquitte policing by others in the car who are also slugging. This is to assure a continious supply of drivers. For example, you don't want to pull out your butterfly net and try to catch butterflies in the car you are getting a ride in. Farting and really bad breath are not recommended, but bathing is, and not with garlic soap. Picking your nose and wipping your buggers on the seats is frowned upon. Screaming at the driver or other drivers, that he is a facist, polluter, WASP, pig and other name calling is also not recommended, and discouraged by other slugs.
In fact it is best to keep the conversation on the lite side. This does not mean ethnic or gender, sex orientation jokes, especially ones that are offensive and rude. Cussing is frowned upon. It is recommended that you do not adjust the radio or steal the persons cd's no matter how much you like their music. When coughing it is best not to wipe one's hands on the seat or door handle.
It is best not to go slugging to work after a long night of drinking especially if you vomit on these occassions. Most people slugging have said that they have not had good luck getting rides from people after picking their sores and talking about their recent contagious disease relapses.
It is good not to ask personal questions like could you sit on my hand or ask them about their young kids and tell them how much you enjoy kids. But that you cannot have them because you are a sex offender.
If you are a cutter and bleeder don't do this when slugging.
No matter how tempting and inspired you are it is good to think about your compliments. A white guy telling a black man that he never thought he'd be driven around town by a black man in a caddy, is about is nice as a black guy telling a white guy he never in his wildest dreams thought he'd have a white driver in some fancy car driving him around town for free.
No matter how tempting it is slugs don't steal the persons jewelry, GPS, or any other easy to reach item. Nor do they rob the person at gun or knife point or even demand sex of any kind.
Slugging is more of an art than a science. Much of the art is in being wonderful and being as pleasant as possible without breaking into John Denver or the Carpenters song catalog, no matter how well sing out of key or how you do it to make them happy by doing so.

I have been slugging to work for years. I don't have to feel guilty about putting slugs in the public bus change collecting machines, to get a free ride.
Instead I feel great about getting driven to work free in a rich guys fancy car. And most of the time the guy is actually greatful to give me the ride, since he can get to work much faster.

SIMBY
The SIMBY crowd go to city hall and get everything they want including parks and recreational facilities, libraries, schools, museums, mass transit, street landscaping, and other community amenities.
I guess it's a little refreshing to the politicians to have a break from the NIMBY who are not happy with anything.
