chromosomes

Something that men have 24 kinds of whereas women have just 23. Although women have two X chromosomes while men have one X and one Y, one of the women's X chromosomes is "transcriptionally silent" i.e. completely inactive.

The Y chromosome is the sole distinguishing factor between men and women and therefore the home of the genes for rationality and abilities such as parking, understanding maps, inventing humourous jokes or indeed anything useful, using an ATM in 30 seconds or less and not turning into a blubbering mess when something trivial occurs, like a parent's death.

"Yeah but she's literally the ONLY one, makes me kinda suspicious about them chromosomes."

Chootopia

1.A mental state of bliss, a dream or a high consisting mainly of choot. (Often translates into the physical world)

2.An extreme Utopia or an extremely utopian situation.

Derived from various sub-contenental dialects such as, Urdu, Hindi, Punjabi, Pushto, e.t.c
1.Hasaan has dozed off again.

Yeah, he visits chootopia often.

2. If I could erradicate poverty, illness and suffering from the world; become the richest man alive, marry thadaf and correct Fraz's kink; now, that would be total chootopia!

chronofucked

when your perception of time is warped for some reason and you don't quite know why the time of day or the day of the week doesn't feel right
Natalie thought it was Wednesday, but it was really Thursday. She obviously got chronofucked.

Chrono Cross

Commonly compared to Chrono Trigger, which is unnecessary. They're both amazing, live in peace, people.

If you're a open minded person who just loves a nice, intricate plot topped with strategy this will probably be the best game you EVER play.

Unfortunately, this isn't a button mashing, tedious, dumb Final Fantasy game or a game that basically screams "HAIL CHRONO TRIGGER!" And this is why people hate this game.

Furthermore, this game dosn't have the best opening since it confuses dumb 10 year olds. But if you can make it to Fort Dragonia (40% through), you will make it to one of the most SHOCKING plot twists, EVER. And then the game just spirals out of control, with this amazing, deep plot and strategic battle system.
I've been gaming since I was 4 and Chrono Cross is the best game I've ever played.

y chromosome

The Y chromosome is one of the two sex chromosomes (X and Y). Only men carry the Y chromosome. The Y chromosome is male specific, passing from father to son. It is responsible for many male characteristics.
The path of evolution is usually so quirky and complex that scientists shy away from making predictions. But the future of the Y chromosome seems clear. Graves points out that, on average, three to six genes have disappeared from the Y every million years since the chromosome emerged. At that rate, the Y has only 10 million years left. It's an old chromosome, at death's door.

The death of the Y doesn't mean the death of men. Men need only look to the mole vole for comfort. Burrowing through the soil of western Asia are two species of these rodents (Ellobius tancrei and E. lutescens) that have lost all the genes from their Y chromosome--in fact, they no longer have a Y chromosome at all. In one of these species, both males and females have been left with just the unpaired X; in the other, both sexes have two X's. No one knows how mole voles ended up being the first mammals to cross over into the Y-free future. But along the way, they must have evolved new genes--on other chromosomes--that are responsible for making males. One of those genes took over the job of SRY, and the chromosome on which it resides is probably on its way to becoming the new Y.

If our species manages to survive for another 10 million years, our descendants will go on making men even after their Y chromosome vanishes. But the change may not be smooth. Graves speculates that several new systems for determining sex could emerge within the global human population. People conceived under one system might be genetically incompatible with those conceived under others. As a result, the human species could fragment into separate populations and, ultimately, separate species. Which of them will prefer football and which the ant nest, we'll have to wait and see.

Chriton

The chriton is a mysterious little creature closely related to the ferret and the weasel. The chriton is most often used by humans to chase people out of their hiding places. This creature is extremely feirce and easily enraged. It has jagged teeth and a foul odor. Its fur is extremely thick and most often brown. It dwells in the caves and rocky regions in Central North America.
