breadth requirements

When colleges require students, who may be spending tens of thousands of dollars per year on tuition, to take courses outside their majors in order that they become "well-rounded". Wonderful if your last name is Rockefeller. Hard to justify if your poor mother is scrubbing floors to put you through college.

Breadth requirements are things such as Physics majors being required to take classes in Medieval Literature, or Art majors being required to take Calculus.

brethren before wenches 

Geek slang for "Bros before Hoes". MMORPG players will often throw this as a trump card when you are trying to spend time with your chick instead of raiding.

Duke: Hey Jim, the raid starts at 8:00ET motherfucker, log your ass in!

Jim: Can't make it tonight, I promised Karen I would watch Sense and Sensibility with her this evening.

Duke: What the fuck man! Brethren before wenches!

Jim: Yeah, you're right. Give me 10 minutes to pick a fight with her and I'll be on.

breathless cries 

The point where you're cries and sobs have built up inside of you for so long; it's all you hear most of the time, all you hear are your constant sobs and cries for help and you cry more because no one listens; they're oblivious.

Those cries that you let out, seem to be so normal to you now. You cry so constantly, that it isn't anything new.

Now, those constant cries are nothing. You've heard yourself cry for those many times you didn't want to hear yourself. You didn't want to hear your weakness collide into sadness and desperation for love and from loss and from anything to everything to nothing to something.

You cry now, and it's nothing, because you can hear yourself cry, but at the same time, you can't; they're breathless cries; cries that are there and you seem to hear but are tired of hearing.

"I cry breathless cries in the form of desperation and loss and sadness and everything; I hear them, my cries, but, I don't anymore."

Breathin' Piper No Wiper

A poop log that has been launched deep into the pipe, but is so long that the other end sticks out the top of the toilet pool, as if it was breathing. Additionally, it leaves behind no residue for the pooper to wipe.

"Ma'am, I'm going to need to use your poop knife; we've got a breathin' piper no wiper situation in there."
