book

A large paper document in the office that has a short lifespan. The reason? Nowadays, as more offices go the "paperless" route, documents are scanned electronically and the originals discarded and shredded. Often, a "book" has several portions, each portion stapled, quite a nuisance to remove in order not to jam the electronic scanner.
I hate getting a book with a hundred staples in it---it's the bane of my existence at my office when I scan it in!

basal book

A "basal book" is one that is absolutely crucial to a particular academic discipline or profession, a book that everyone who knows anything knows about. It is a book (or perhaps an article) that forms the basis for understanding a certain topic or joining a certain conversation. It is often the sort of book that everyone wants to have read but no one wants to read. It is always the sort of book or article that cannot be digested properly by reading it all the way through just once, but must be studied and digested (analytical reading helps with this).
Greg Glassman's article "What is Fitness?" is a basal article for the Crossfit movement.

Rachel Carson's "Silent Spring" is a basal book for the environmentalist movement.

"Mein Kampf" is a basal book for the Nazi movement.

In-Your-Face-book Friend

A Facebook Friend who constantly posts or re-posts religious or political slams...or other "In-Your-Face" type content.
Jane: Did you see what your cousin posted on Facebook? I don't know why we're Friends...he's always posting stuff that pisses me off.

Joe: Yeah...he's my In-Your-Face-book Friend. If he's posted that Chick-fil-A crap once, he's posted it a thousand times! Enough already...get that shit outta-my-face, man!
