don't take it personally

A phrase people use as a disclaimer to make an excuse to say or do something rude or mean to you to prevent you from having a poor self-image or so there won't be repercussions and make you feel they still like you even though they probably don't.

It Is What It Is

A cop out phrase many people use to describe a situation, place, or thing they think have no control over and trying to change things or people’s minds about it is useless.
Detroit is a dangerous city and San Francisco is an expensive place to live. It is what it is!

Austin, Texas

A once quiet, laid-back, friendly small Texas city populated mainly by native Texans and UT students. A very attractive and pleasant place, full of culture, great food, a great music scene, and nonstop nightlife, but a climate of brutal summers lasting 6 months out of the year and bipolar winters that can be anywhere from 10-90 degrees. Until the 1970’s, many people outside the south commonly known as “Yankees”, decided to move there and kept their personalities and culture of perceived unfriendliness, hostility, and indifference. And for the past 20-30 years, it has now become a very progressive city full of culture and pretentiousness, but now an overcrowded and overpriced cesspool with nonstop traffic from 5:00 a.m to 1:00 a.m. and middle-classes flocking to Round Rock, Cedar Park, and Leander on the north side and Buda and Manchaca on the south side. Westlake Hills remains the upper middle class white flight area it has been since the 1970’s.
I’m from Austin, Texas. I’m a UT graduate with a doctorate degree in philosophy, a vegan that loves beyond sausage hot dogs with Sriracha, wants a sterile, politically correct society, and far left socialist. Drive up the prices of homes to make the place more desirable! Now I’m going to work at the vegan restaurant I work at waiting tables so I can pay my $3000 a month rent on a 1 room apartment downtown!

Generation Z

Children born between the mid-1990's to 2010. The youngest ones are starting elementary school and the oldest ones have been out of high school only a couple of years. They are the sheltered and lifeless spawn of Generation X and early Generation Y'ers that have never known a world without internet and cell phones, America at war with the Middle East, had their parents monitor them even worse than Y'ers, rode in car seats until they were 9 and never in the front seat of cars until they were 10, most go to college even though most high school age kids of this generation can barely read or write or find their own home state on a U.S. map, their music is pretty manufactured and unimaginative, food allergies very commonplace because they've had vaccinations for every disease known to mankind and spend most of their times indoors, unstructured playtime is almost unknown with play dates arranged by their mom's, playground equipment is all plastic with a foam ground underneath, and many are generally bored despite the nonstop use of electronic devices.

Builds Character

A term many working classes and deeply religious people use to have an impressionable and coddled young person experience something unpleasant or humiliating, usually hard labor, something embarrassing, or confinement. Results usually end up either having the person's spirit broken or ending up with being just as much of an asshole as the person enforcing it.

Old School

A term used by many young people and liberal older people use to describe people over 50 with a stern or formidable personality that believe in harsh discipline and no coddling thinking that being that way will produce a good citizen and a better person. Many old school men believe in hard work for success, women that are not housewives should work only in occupations such as teaching, secretarial work, or nursing, children need to be put in their place and not part of adult conversation, smoking cigarettes and drinking alcohol is okay, but marijuana is horrible, and that making a man out of a young boy is not having a deep conversation followed by hugs or tears.

Gauges

A ridiculous looking plug many young guys put in their holed earlobes and stretch them. And another reminder of how I can't stand Generation Y'ers.
