Politically transmitted disease

A highly objectionable political or social view or affiliation held by a previously compassionate and socially conscious person after a prolonged, sexual relationship with an ultra-conservative individual. Abbr: PTD.
Shamona was pretty cool until she started sleeping with that neo-con Nigel and picked up that politically transmitted disease... now she's uncomfortable unless she's surrounded by people of pallor.

When he said he was D & D free, I thought that included PTDs. Now I find out he's been a greedy pig ever since he got married to Lauren.

Wtf, you belong to the NRA? Politically transmitted diseases are worse than chlamydia, dude!

Employment Policies Institute

Name of a 501(c)(3) group created by Berman & Co., a

lobbyist for the restaurant, hotel, alcohol, and cigarette companies. "Defeat the Debt, another 501(c)(3), is supposedly organized by the Employment Policies Institute ALSO created by Berman & Co.

The Employment Policies Institute is not an institute, in the sense that it doesn't conduct research or perform services to the public. All it does is recycle American Enterprise Institute talking points under a false flag. Berman & Co. has a very large number of "institutes" or organizations, usually little information about the funding or affiliations. It cites "articles" which are letters to the editor published by a "senior economic analyst" at the "Employment Policies Institute," etc.

The "studies" are not peer-reviewed, but they take a long time to download (they're PDF files, naturally). The "doctors" are merely Ph.D. holders in an unrelated field spouting glibertarian theories. All in all, another front for wingnut welfare.
The Employment Policies Institute is a phony organization created in 1991 by Richard Berman, the principal of Berman & Co. It is little more than a website.

The Wikipedia entry for the "Employment Policies Institute" was obviously written by someone affiliated with the institute. Essentially devoted to ending the minimum wage (among other issues), it includes a section taking the 501(c)(3)'s position on a study, and then cites a "paper" by that same entity as "proof." This is the sort of bullshit we have come to expect from Berman & Co.

Polish Hammer

to drop the absolute piss missile on a young polish woman. the act of the polish hammer is not completed without the act of putting a whole polish kielbasa up both participants rectums, the action must be quick like the German blitzkrieg into Poland. the polish hammer is in fact LETHAL causing the death or mortally wounding of both people involved. It is said in polish legend that the pleasure felt is pure nirvana, so yes it is worth dying for.
The polish hammer was once done by the polish king and queen and it resulted in an earthquake that broke the world into the 7 continents we know today.

Politics

Something that makes people feel like human affairs are important, despite the fact that our entire planet- nay; solar system- nay; galaxy could be wiped from existence without altering the universe in any perceptible manner.
Imagine spending your entire lifetime discussing a single electron orbiting a single hydrogen atom bonded in a single water molecule lining the digestive tract of a security guard at Kohl's with no consideration for anything else in the world. That is more or less what politics are like.
