When you completely own or destroy somebody in any circumstance. The form of own-age can range from anything from answering a question before a completely random individual to killing an opponent in the heat of battle. But to do it in an ultramodern, advanced, or ahead of its time fashion. This is an idea, belief or belief system, or pattern of behavior that spreads throughout a culture either vertically by cultural inheritance (as by parents to children) or horizontally by cultural acquisition (as by peers, information media, and entertainment media) Usually done in a manner leaving the (owned) confused in their defeat.
Opposed to old school, meaning to school in a new way.

Get the Cupcake Universitymug. The University of Cambridge and the University of Oxford are the oldest universities in the English-speaking world.
They are the most prestigious institutions in the United Kingdom, and are collectively known as Oxbridge.
Oxbridge are consistently ranked as being two of the worlds best educational institutions, the others generally being the likes of Harvard, MIT, Stanford, Princeton, Yale et al.
Alumni of the two universities include Isaac Newton, Stephen (both Fry and Hawking), Simon and Will from the Inbetweeners, David Attenborough, Charles Darwin, C.S. Lewis, Armstrong and Miller, Mitchell and Webb, Lewis Carroll, T.S. Eliot and Bill Clinton, to name just a few of what is an enormous list of influential figures throughout history. Well over 100 Nobel Prize-winners, countless prime ministers, presidents, kings and queens have attended at least one of either Oxford or Cambridge.
Were just one figure to be named as the most famous figure bearing the Oxbridge name, it would surely be Mr. Bean, perhaps best known for playing popular actor Rowan Atkinson.

"William Fulbright was awarded a Rhodes Scholarship to study at Oxford."
"I got rejected from Cambridge." "Unlucky bro, what's your backup?"
"Black student rejected from Oxbridge despite AABBC at A-level including Media and Food Tech."
"The University of Cambridge has lost the world number-one spot to Harvard University in this year's world rankings. But do not despair, O Cantabrigians, for though they may be shed here, poureth e'er the more tears in the third-class city of Oxford, where their polytechnic came in at just fifth place, overtaken by those nerds at MIT."

Get the University of Cambridgemug. A school that was once prestigious but is now burdened with scandals and intense competition from regional as well as international universities. For example, Northeastern University has co-op and its students are now infiltrating investment banking, research, public accounting, and consulting.
While the school has money and is well known, its downfall is coming.

Man I love Harvard University and my degree is great, but not as useful and powerful as the kid from Northeastern University or Tufts University.

Get the Crossing the Universemug. University of Texas: A large state flagship university located in Austin, Texas. Enrollment = ~50,000. Metro population 2011 = ~ 1.6 million.
1. A once great school that has become a corporation. An institution that has left its roots and mission to pursue the almighty dollar to the detriment of the people of Texas.
2. A school rightly loved by its alums and adored by millions of Tshirt fans than can't read past the sixth grade. Note: Things about UT that are thoughtful that will usually by an alum. The junk by a tshirter.
3. A school that high performing TEXAS kids from upper middle income suburban homes can rarely hope to get into. The dorks in this socio economic group are going to Texas A&M, the partyers are going to Texas State and the independent "I'll do my own thing' types are going to Tech.
4. Most alums of UT that graduated in the 70's, 80's and early 90's from upper middle class suburban Texas would not be allowed in today. UT would have to give grant and funds to the very demographic its left wing leadership despise.
5. Has the UT leadership even thought of what is going to happen when many future alums are from Bangalore, India or Beijing China. Are they going to attend UT games, donate money to the school , go to a UT game today. UT's 100,000 fans make less noise than aTm's 80,000 and less than Tech' 60,000. You know why. UT fans are old and stale.

Plano: What do you mean I cant get a grant for going to the University of Texas. WTF I got accepted to Rice but UT is not offering a dime. So, I live in Plano and my mom and dad make 100,000 a year. Tech is offering a full ride and aTm is giving me two years but UT nothing.
Beijing, China. "Mother I have been accepted to the University of Texas". Yes, son it will be very expensive but we will have help paying for it. Will you bring me back a cowboy hat.

Notable alumni have become politicians and then immediately tried their best to fuck up their country.
Bush graduated from Yale University after receiving gentleman C's, even though his intelligence is much lower than that of a chimp.
