Summer Slump

A period during summer in which a person performs inefficiently due to the excessive amount of free time on their hands.

The symptoms often include:
-remaining around the house for the majority of the day,
-sleeping in excessive amounts,
-persistent viewing of television,
-prolonged exposure to video games,
-neglecting personal hygiene,
-consuming large quantities of food (in most cases, junk food),
-loss of desire to leave their residence,
-and abstaining contact from the outside world other than Myspace/Facebook or the occasional trip to 7-11.

Causes: Lack of school or a job, absence of friends, insufficient funds, and/or lack of transportation.

Effects: Moodiness, weight gain, shortness of breath (most likely when a patient returns to school and must run the mile), insomnia, increase of nerdiness, shrinkage of intimacy, and/or depression.
Two weeks into summer vacation, Tom fell into the Summer Slump and we didn't see him for two months.
When we returned to school he mentioned that he had become a tenth prestige on "CoDWaW." We noticed that he had gained a few pounds and had broken up with his girlfriend, clearly effects of the Summer Slump.

Local Summer

Local summer is a phrase coined by all of us San Diegans, especially the beach residents referring to the months of September and October when all of the Zonies have gone back to Arizona and we get our beaches back.
Hey Bill, Parking, uncrowded beaches, zero UofA tents on the beach, it must be local summer!

It starts off like a nice, if not more intense and warped game of Edward 40 Hands. You and a buddy duct tape 2 Lokos to your hands, and add two to your feet. But then shit gets real, you're coming up with crazy ideas cuz you both took eight hits of acid. You drive out to the desert, stand 200 paces apart, face each other, and stand there (no walking around weenies), until all eight 4lokos are finished. Whoever finishes first, or doesn't pass out wins the duel.

What you'll need-
8 x 4lokos
1 x shitty car to drive to desert environment
2 x sets of balls
Bro 1- Hey bro, I was thinking about jerking off with a noose, but why don't we just go to the desert and do this 4 Loko Challenge - Summer Standoff Edition?
Bro 2- Hey Alright! It's a beautiful day to die! Maybe we can jerk it if we make it back alive!

500 Days of Summer

Hilariously serious movie that everyone should see. It'll teach you what love really is and isn't. Great ending that isn't ruined by a cheesy "guy-gets-the-girl" scenario, more real life than ever.

...almost as good as the Notebook :)

Starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Zooey Deschanel
Did you see 500 Days of Summer? It's such a great movie.
