Nolan chart

A two-dimensional graph of political viewpoints. The axes are belief in economic freedoms and belief in personal freedoms. Democrats believe in personal freedoms but few economic freedoms, Republicans just the opposite. Communists believe in neither, and Libertarians believe in both.

Before I saw the Nolan Chart, I thought Libertarians were just wierd Republicans, but now I realize they're awesome and vote for them every time.

Person A: "Hey man, did you see the Amazing Spider-Man trailer? I hope it does well."
Person B: "Yeah, I guess we'll see if the new director can pull a Nolan."

A: We should sign those scrappy wingers because they are Nolan-type players.
B: Yeah, if you want to lose out the rest of the season.

A: I am a terrible hockey player with no team. Maybe Coach Nolan will take me if I can prove I am a Nolan-type player.

"I suck at hockey."

Nolan Throne

Grade A choker. Usually performs very well up until the time it counts, usually in a high stakes event such as a wrestling match to go to state. Can count on them until it really matters, and usually is illiterate.

Jeez, Hild really pulled a Nolan Throne this year in the state finals! He did last year, too. And the year before..
