Provert

An individual who spends most waking hours at the computer looking at all types of porn. He has seen it all, and probably released many little soldiers while viewing it.

Kraig is always on the internet looking at porn. He's seen it all, he's not a pervert...he's a provert!

poverty

Offical Poverty line for a family of 4 in the US is 18,000. this of course is based on governments idea of what ppl use money for.. Where at least 28,000 is needed to support a family of 4.

according to the government standards, about 36 Million americans are in Poverty. But the number is actually around 50 Million based on real standards

remember this quote:
"Focusing on the poor and ignoring the system of power, privilege, and profit that makes them poor, is a little like blaming the corpse for murder" - Michael Parenti

Poverty Pimp

Poverty Pimp: A pejorative term used in the U.S. to label a person or group; typically an elected official, activist, religious leader, social services agency or faith-based organization, which has appointed itself as an intermediary for the poor and the disenfranchised, but which unethically benefits either financially or politically from their position as a representative of a "victimized group." Such a person isn't truly interested in helping the people that he/she claims to represent, but is instead more interested in their own career(s).

Examples: Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Maxine Waters, Obamacare.

Welfare agencies are often poverty pimps because if more minorities emancipated themselves from the welfare state, those who facilitate the welfare would be out of a job.

Thunder Bastard Poverty Sicles

n. Warm weather snack, highly efficient anti-boredom tool.

Take one of the ready-mixed packages of Kool-Aid lemonade and sink the entire package in a pitcher of water. The higher concentration, the better. After all the Kool-Aid dissolves, get a bottle of lemon juice concentrate. Add as much as you feel like, a lot or a little, it really doesn't matter. After you stir that in for awhile, pour the mix into an icecube tray, cover it in saran wrap, and put toothpicks in each one, making poverty sicles. The end result will be a sickeningly sweet lemonade popsicle.

However, you don't have to use lemonade mix, or even the ready-made Kool-aid packages. You can use any flavor, just so long as you get the sugar right (or wrong, depending). I recommend a minimum of 10 packets if you're going to go that route, then fill the pitcher about halfway and add as much sugar as the water will hold. Test, correct where needed.

Tyler drew the short straw and had to test the first batch of Thunder Bastard Poverty Sicles. He took one lick and about went into sugar shock.
