architeuthis dux

The giant squid. The second largest species of squid known to man. The giant squid can reach lengths greater than 50 feet and has the largest eyeball in the animal kingdom. It is thought by many marine biologists to battle with and maybe even prey on sperm whales. Unlike most squid the architeuthis dux has serrated suckers on the clubs of it's two longest tentacles which are most likely used for catching and holding prey. The giant squid is one of the earliest and most terrifying examples of the fabled sea monsters that destroyed and sunk ships hundreds of years ago and is widely considered to be the same monster known as the kraken.
"The young couple's blood curdling screams could be heard from the pier as the hungry architeuthis dux destroyed their little yacht and pulled them toward it's gnashing beak!"

Sustainable Architecture

A supreme form of architecture that the Internet needs to fucking talk about, involving buildings being littered with an earth shattering amount of plants.
Josh’s best friend just hit on his girl, so he decided to calm down by looking at pictures of sustainable architecture.

Carchitecture

Carchitecture is architecture that is car-centric, like drive-thrus street side parking lots, strip malls, single story businesses, and most building types or rules dedicated to drive by traffic. Also, safety islands, mandated set-backs, cul-de-sacs, fenced in parking, highway fuel stops and rest areas. Often the needs of people are secondary or non-existent to the needs of the car in a carchitecture environment. Exists mostly in the exurbs, or in suburbia. May cause depression and antisocial behavior.
I can't stand how everything is so far away from your house even though it's right next door! Because of all this friggin' carchitecture I have to walk around three fences to get a quart of milk. Next time I go I'm bringing my wire cutters.

architecting

the act of creating something beautiful and not being a pretentious asshole about it
Stosh: I see you've been ARCHITECTING. That portico is to die for! It does seem a bit fancy for an entrance to White Castle?

Helga: Yes, well an old greek woman read my fortune and told me White Castle needed an upgrade. So I drank a triple espresso and ARCHITECTED that thing in 48 hours.

A faggy paradigm of common sense design principles. People like to spout off about SOA as if it meant shit - which it don't. The key thing to remember with SOA is that it is very gay. If you have an ounce of sense in your head, you will design your systems to conform with others it will be working with. We don't need 1300 page manifestos explaining how or why we should be doing this.

Don't be a queer, homo, gaylord, fairy, flamer, faggot, fudge packer, poof, ponce, meat-smoker, cock sucker, butt pirate, fruit, queen. It's obvious.
You can't put stars into triangular orifices. You need service oriented architecture for that. You CAN put your dick into another man's ass though, with or without an SOA. But I don't need to tell you that.

Taking an architectural tour

A funny way of saying "driving around because you got lost".
My husband wouldn't stop for directions, so we wound up taking an architectural tour of downtown Chicago for 2 hours today.
