assimilation by the Borg

The habit of wearing a Bluetooth cell phone on one's ear at all times. Usually in reference to high-powered executive types, the first to develop this habit in earnest.

Have you seen the new director of security? Yeah, he's been assimilated..... (Note that any form of "assimilation by the Borg" can be used.)

borg assimilator

ride in the "Paramount Carowinds" theme park designed after the Star Trek series. Might break down after one gets 80% through the line. Might consequentially piss you off.

"I thought the borg were supposed to have advanced technology, but this ride always breaks down! Advanced technology my ass hole.

assimilation

(1)The act of being assimilated; usually by the Borg. Or, (2)the absorbtion of a foreign body into a living being.

(1) This is the Borg. You will be assimilated. We will add your biological and technological distinctions to our own. You will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile.
or (2) I assimilated that bullet you shot me in the leg with.

Assimilation

It is what the United State's government did to the indigenous tribes in order to cast out the inner "native" from them. Involved sending the children to the state-run boarding schools in order to destroy their "savage" culture. In many cases, assimilation was the solution for the government to obtain land, stripping the indigenous of precious resources.

The United States forced assimilation upon Native Americans in means of "killing the indian, but saving the man."
