retrograde revolution

The theory that history and culture (i.e. fashion, music etc.) repeats itself every couple of decades.

Its plausibility draws from the fact that most parents raise their children with the same ideas that their own parents asserted upon them.
There are many similarities between the war in Iraq today and the Vietnam war .. It's almost like a retrograde revolution.

Hopefully, a retrograde revolution involving the 60s and 70s will begin, and groups will actually start playing some real music.

The comeback of blazers is part of the retrograde revolution.

ron paul revolution

A peaceful political movement in the United States in favor of restoring the country back to its Constitutional roots.
Ron Paul is the leading voice in this movement, as a 2008 Republican-Party Presidential Candidate. (As of 11-2-2007 he still needs to win the Republican Primaries). This revolution intends to use democracy to implement social change beginning with the election of this man.
You can recognize this slogan by the flipped writing of the red letters "evol" in the word "revolution" to spell the word "love". This slogan has been printed on shirts, bumper stickers, and random signs that supporters will post in their local areas.
The mass media will sometimes call Ron Paul's supporters Paulites. Finally, while the Revolution began through the internet, it has proven to have supporters through Dr. Paul's winning of 3rd place or higher in the vast majority of Republican straw polls.
The Ron Paul Revolution has made it to South Carolina!

paul revere middle school

Basically a jail. You can't wear what you want (you're shorts must to your knees or longer), the teachers are all crazy and unhelpful, and everyone ends up pushing each-other through the hallway. People smoke weed, lose their virginity, and cry over Formspring.
Girl1: Yeah, I go to Paul Revere Middle School

Girl2: Oh that sucks what do you wear?

Gir1: jeans, turtle-neck sweater, converse. they don't let us wear anything cute.

To slowly, and painstakingly, acquire things bit by bit in exactly the opposite way that Tim Robbins got rid of the dirt and rocks that he excavated from his cell as he dug his tunnel to freedom in the film, Shawshank Redemption.
