revolution

1. It won't be televised, that's for sure.

Oh--and it can quickly get violent.

Better put that ol' bomb shelter behind Fido's house to good use.

2. Prince's backing band during the mid-1980s.

Revolutionary War

The American Revolution as some call it. But it's the war where a bunch of American colonists with pitchforks beat down a billion british soldiers.
The definition is of course an exageration but thats the revolutionary war in a nutshell.

Alternative Revolution

A music revolution that started in late 1991 and ended in the mid-90's (there is controversy over what exact year it ended). It was characterized by the rise of various music styles such as Grunge and Industial, as well as the beginnings of Pop-Punk. This time period was also associated with the rise of Grunge fashion and the rising popularity of independent films (or films styled as independent films, such as Clerks).

This revolution was, unfortunately, corrupted by corporate America, which took the elements of the Alternative Revolution, ironed them out, and sold to mainstream America. By the mid-90's, the revolution had become commercialized, ultimately resulting in the end of the revolution and the rise of corporate "alternative radio" which is hardly alternative at all

relationsham

A relationship for the sole purpose of being with someone so as to not be single. Usually a one-sided situation, as the other person thinks the relationship is legit.
Dude, I know that last guy broke her heart...but the current boyfriend? Total relationsham. Too bad he actually thinks they're in love.
