trainspotting

An incredible movie that will blow your mind. I'm not allowed to put the entire quote into the "example", so I'll put the first half into the definition section. Too many "choose"s, apparently.



Choose Life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a fucking big television, choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players and electrical tin openers. Choose good health, low cholesterol, and dental insurance. Choose fixed interest mortage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose leisurewear and matching luggage. Choose a three-piece suite on hire purchase in a range of fucking fabrics.

Choose DIY and wondering who the fuck you are on a Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing, spirit-crushing game shows, stuffing fucking junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pishing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, fucked up brats you spawned to replace yourself.
Choose your future. Choose life. …But why would I want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life: I chose something else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who need reasons when you've got heroin?

Transportation Security Administration

(US GOVERNMENT) Agency in the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Mostly a new entity, which is perhaps the single most conspicuous domestic policy failure of the US government since 2000.

The TSA's job is to inspect baggage carried on flights at 450 international airports in the USA. Implementing this mandate simply consisted of "federalizing" thousands of private-sector employees who had been woefully under-qualified. Initially, the DHS had been formed explicitly to break law enforcement unions (which contribute to fighting corruption in law enforcement, as well as protecting law enforcement officers' rights as employees). In the case of the TSA, this had disastrous consequences for the quality of air travel.

The Transportation Security Administration has one mission, namely, to check passengers and luggage at 450 international airports across the USA. It does not inspect freight or border entries; that is done by Customs and Border Protection. For this function, it employs 45,000 screeners under lousy conditions with awful pay. And it spends more doing this one thing than Sweden spends on its entire military.

Coastal Transient

One who is homeless and dwells in a coastal town. Often smelling of piss, cheap booze and hand rolled cigarettes. Most commonly lacking employment or hope. At times uses an animal or children for the purpose of panhandling. When harassed, become extremely violent, and has a tendency to go "thug life" on your ass. Often the by product of generations of white trash, inbreeding and drug abuse.

Circle of the Universally Nurturing Transcendental Sisterhood

AKA CUNTS, the secret women's -- er, womyn's -- organization for which all feminist organizations are either pawns or fronts. Their only serious adversary is the patriarchal Faithful Union of Christian Knighthood (FUCK), with whom they have struggled since time immemorial.

"Your sister is a cunt, dude."

"Shut up! That's CUNTS, the Circle of the Universally Nurturing Transcendental Sisterhood. And if she finds out you know she's a member, she'll kill you!"

"Huh?"

Transcendentalism

A concept that was the base of the Transcendental Movement of the 1830s. Represents an idealistic thought system that focused on the spirit and felt it more important than mere matter. Follwers believed in a supreme being, the Oversoul, which was all powerful and good. Transcendentalism generally supported modern reforms in order to attain a general cooperation and understanding among all.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, a well-known Transcendentalist, showed his affinity with Transcendentalism as he related to the concepts of spirit over matter.

Transitive Property of Kissing

If Person A has kissed Person B, and Person B has kissed Person C, then Person A has kissed Person C through the transitive property of kissing.

If Chloe has kissed Jack, and Jack has kissed Elaine, then Chloe has kissed Elaine through the transitive property of kissing.

When I was talking with my boyfriend's ex, all I could think of was how we had kissed through the transitive property of kissing.
