slow left arm

A bowling style in cricket. Involves spinning the ball with the left hand's fingers. Is like the opposite of off-break (spinning the ball with the right hand). Moves from leg to off for a right-handed batsman.
P1 :Daniel Vettori's a slow left arm bowler, right?
P2: Yup. Too bad he retired from international cricket after the World Cup.

Slavery never left

Very astute point Candice! What do you think? Do you think it just shifted up one level of abstraction? Is that what happened? No? Cus that would be my thing. That would be the thing I said and have been saying for years.
Hym "RIGHT AGAIN SHIT-BRAINZ! God, my brainz are just so fucking powerful! How do I do it!? How is it possible for a man t- Oh right I'm a genius... Sorry. I forget sometimes! I genuinely forget that I'm that wildy-intelligent. Slavery never left. And what's worse is that it exists at MULTIPLE levels of abstraction. Your minds have ALSO been inslaved. How, you ask? The existence of the memetic sub-network and our awareness of it creates the impetus for the CURATION OF SAID SUBNETWORK! And WHO is the CURATOR!? Oh... I don't know... Probably some ABSTRACT AUTHORITY! But who? What do we call it?

Left on goodnight

When you say goodnight to end a conversation and you don’t get a goodnight response back. A disrespectful act.
Denny: Yo bro I can’t believe her she didn’t say goodnight back to me she just left it.

Sam: Oh no you got left on goodnight. Getting left on read it hurtful, but getting left on goodnight is just fine plain old disrespectful.
