metrodork

A metrodork is a straight man who embraces some aspects of an urban gay style: emotional sensitivity, refinement in taste, enjoyment of flamboyant clothing styles, and use of body care products (in other words, a metrosexual); but who spoils the effect by wearing a New York Yankees cap.
Willis carries a handbag, gets his hair styled, gets a Brazilian wax, and dresses out of Gentlemen's Quarterly; however he also routinely wears a New York Yankees baseball cap which shouts that he is a metrodork if not an out-and-out asshole.

the meteors

The Meteors are a highly influential psychobilly band. Originally from the United Kingdom, they are often credited with giving the genre its distinctive sound. The Meteors consider themselves the first and only "pure" psychobilly band.

The Meteors were started in 1980 by P. Paul Fenech (guitar and vocals), Nigel Lewis (upright bass), and Mark Robertson (drums). Fenech and Lewis had played in rockabilly bands before, but left their former band, Raw Deal, in order to experiment with a new sound that mixed horror and science fiction lyrics with a punk rock-rockabilly crossover. This sound would later be called psychobilly.

Pedo-meter

A pedo-meter is a non-specific measurement describing the distance between an area where there is a general presence of minors (such as a school or a park) and the nearest pedophile, and the likely hood they will offend. A distance of 1 pedo-meter suggests there is a 50% Chance of pedophile activity in the area; the distance shares an exponentially inverse relationship with pedophile activity.
Person 1. "This park is about 6 pedo-meters away, so the kids are quite safe"
Person 2. "Shit that's not bad, when I was growing up my school had a distance of about .3 pedo-meters, there was a few creepy bald guys driving around in tinted vans from time to time"

metro ticket

aptly named, metro-ticket-shaped, landing strip of a brazilian wax. (most commonly used in France, as "ticket de metro.")
FR:
- "Qu'est-ce que tu preferes: tout epile, ticket de metro, ou foret vierge?"

- "Le foret vierge, c'est sale. Tout epile, ce n'est pas naturel. Donc, c'est mieux le ticket de metro!"

EN:
- "Which do you prefer: completely bare, metro ticket, or wild forest?"

- "The wild forest is nasty. Completely bare is unnatural. So the metro ticket is best!"

Metro, commonly referred to as "hell" by the sophomore class, is a STEM school.

Metro was created on the idea that kids could go on an accelerated school life, and go straight to college. By doing two years of college, students can get a start into the world.
Metro constantly changes, leading to confusion. Seniors relax, knowing that they will never again have to deal with Metro's flux, while the freshman class dread the upcoming years.

Procrastinators are never punished, thus everyone at Metro procrastinates in some way. The only way for a procrastinator to become punished is if the teachers call the parents. Students who find themselves on the receiving end of this expect to hear lectures.

Grading is one thing that has not changed in the history of Metro. At Metro, one must meet what is called MASTERY, or a 90% or higher. Failing to receive this grade, even receiving 89%, results in the dreaded WIP.

Metro runs on an online system. Students submit work onto a site called Taskstream, which are then graded by teachers that are tech-savvy enough to use a Mac. If a student does not have access to a computer, the school will provide a used MacBook. If the student does not have Wi-Fi, the school simply shows the kid to a hotspot.

The other part of Metro's monitoring system is known as PowerSchool. This is a grade book where teachers can put grades, giving parents a way to monitor kids. However, teachers never update their grade book, usually leading to classes with no grade.
Powerschool Grade: 89% (WIP)

Parent: Powerschool says You're not meeting your potential. I sent you to Metro Early College High School so that you could meet your potential

Student: Ok. (Notices lack of grading in over two months.)
