1) A type of animation using countries (usually represented as people) and usually realistic wars between them. Countyballs are quite satiric and rely mostly on stereotypes. For example, in the countryball animations by "No Idea Animations", Poland cleans Toilets for England, Russia likes vodka and AK-47s, and France likes frog legs, wine, and baguettes. In countryballs, the following flags are usually flipped over: Poland, Indonesia, and Monaco (however, Monaco and other microstates aren't used often). Some countries, like Kazakhstan, are bricks.
2) A ball that you buy from the store (like a soccer ball) but with a picture of a country or country flag as its design.

Get the countryball mug.A good movie that's gotten a bad rap due to stubborn fans using poor defenses of the film when it's criticized.
They often say people just "don't get it" if they don't like it and anyone who doesn't should go watch Transformers 2 (or whatever other film which is at the time popular for lacking plot and overusing CGI, etc).
Personally, however, I still find it to be a very good movie, it's just unfortunate that it's gotten such a bad rep due to stubborn defenders who can't deal with other opinions

Get the lunch counter mug.(n.) A county in the United States in which the sale of alcohol is entirely prohibited by law.
Though the antonym of dry county is technically a wet county, most counties that permit the sale of alcohol have varying legal limitations set on the sale of alcohol, so that the "wetness" or "dryness" of a county can be somewhat relative.
