Esmeralda: "Oh you're so funny Rufus, I would be so unhappy without you to talk to."
Rufus: "So I was wondering, well if you're not too busy tonight, maybe we could-"

Get the conversation thief mug.plot convenience is a method of story-telling that forces unlikely events to take place because the story calls for it.
In the anime dragonball, Goku as a child transforms into a great ape twice within a year, the first was when they were trapped in 3 foot "special steel" thick cube prizon with tempered glass up on top, the full moon is out, and after he transforms he has his tail cut off.
plot convenience kicks in during the final round of the world martial arts tournament, Goku's tail grows back during his fight with Monster Beast Giran, and the full moon just happens to be out during the final fight. In other words plot convenience happens when coincidences must take place in order for the plot to advance.

When people say converse they are usually referring to Chuck Taylors or chucks which are most likely the most popular style of converse shoes. And yes my dad likes to tell those fascinating stories of how he wore them when he played basketball in highschool, often he uses visual aids(his highschool basketball team picture where everyone on the team is wearing said shoe) to illustrate this point. Yes, very cool dad. Then he regales us with stories of how he had a pair in every off the wall color and they were only ten bucks @ Yellowfront (some ancient sporting goods store). All very fascinating. Nowadays these glorious shoes are being worn by all types of people, but I wont even try to name all the "categories" of people that wear them because that's lame. Classification sucks major ass. Anyway, don't give a shit what anyone says about you wearing the damn shoes. If you like something wear it. That should be the only reason to do anything at all anyway. So whether someone says your cool for wearing them or they tell you that you have no right to do so, just tell them to FUCK OFF! because you couldn't care less what they think! Or you could just ignore them and walk away which is often to better effect.
Lame person: "Hey you can't wear converse, those shoes are strictly for .....(insert lame ass classification)."
You in your fine ass kicks: "Get a life." (turn your back on lame person and walk away)

Get the convercidal mug.They're Westerners inverting the traditions of Byzantine Christianity, fetishizing them, and, in many cases, turning them into a cure all. It’s built into the very DNA of this sort of convert.
They're people leaving the Roman Church, or One of the Eastern Churches, or even a Protestant religion to become Orthodox, rather than remaining or becoming Roman or Eastern Catholic.
Very rarely do these converts cite solely the beauty and Truth of the Orthodox Church as the source of their “conversion.” In order to define themselves they feel obsessively compelled to compare their new Church against the Roman Church or the Protestant religions.
The objections range from petty Papal-daddy issues to serious theological questions and practical problems that the Church does need to fix such as the issues of catechesis and political and social positions that are incompatible with the Faith.
But if they have to define the Truth of their new found faith through the perceived faults of others, two things have happened:
1. They have not fully taken off the old man.
2. They have become a coward who can’t face the responsibility that comes with being a lay person, priest, or deacon in the Church.
You could usually see them spouting nonsense such as: "Pope bad", "but muh 4th Crusade", "Muh Constantinople", Hurr durr Filioque" and could be usually seen Referencing RT propaganda
