The Silverware Shift

The undetermined point in time at which a roommate will finally wash the dishes he/she has used when and if there are no clean dishes left to be used or no clean dishes left that he/she requires.
Roommate 1: "When is he going to do the dishes?"
Me: "Oh, when he hits The Silverware Shift."

The c shift

In the fire department culture, work is usually divided into 3 shifts, or platoons; A, B, & C shift. The C shift is the spawn of the A & B shift, when fire departments became busier with higher call volume. It was necessary, to have an extra shift, in order to get the other shifts longer group days off for rest & recovery. It was also necessary to get the stupidest, dumbest bunch of village fucking idiots into one group, so as to only let the public be in danger by their incompetence only 10 days out of the month instead of 15, or only 1/3 of the year, instead of 1/2 of the year. fuck sticksass clownsbutt fucking idiotsboner biting butt fuckersdonkey punching dick lickersshit eating fart knockers
A shifter: "Good morning C shifter, what happened to the rig & why do we have a reserve engine?"

C shifter: "Well, we were coming down the hill from a call & the brakes started smoking. When we came to a stop, I engaged the spring brakes. They never released. Oh, I guess you're suppose to down shift to a lower gear, too, when you're descending a hill. You ever heard of that before?"

A shifter: "What? Fuck me."

C shifter: "Oh, we were super busy, too, so we didn't wash the rig & you need to get fuel."

A shifter: "Dude, there's a fuel tank at the side of the station......was it that difficult to pull in after the last call & get fuel."

C shifter: "I was hungry & I wanted to eat. I didn't want the truckers to get the last of the pancakes."

A shifter: "You're such a fuck ass. Fuck, I hate the c shift."

The Paradigm Shift

In a general sense, a change happening on a vast scale. A shift in the big picture, if you will.

Specifically "The Paradigm Shift" refers to a certain oft discussed and theorized shift in social groups concerning several different intersecting social circles. The Paradigm Shift did not happen within the originally proposed timeline of the spring of 2008, but new evidence has come to light suggesting that The Paradigm Shift may still be happening, just on a larger timeline and consisting of not exactly the same changes as earlier expected.
"The Paradigm Shift" may still come to manifest itself in the first quarter of 2009.

the graveyard shift

without a doubt the greatest rap group in history. a true tragedy. graveyard shift were friends and family of bone thugs n harmony (the second greatest). the group was signed to ruthless, but lil boo (krayzie's cousin) was the first to die. mentioned in crossroads. the remaining members, tombstone, gates, and sin. tombstone was killed later. "still waters" was supposed to be there first cd. however bone thugs (krayzie, layzie, and wish) being the complete fuck-ups that they are, never made it happen. instead they took their lyrics and made an internet only cd.

their music had a really gothic sound to it. sins voice is really scary, and they use metaphors alot, and really creepy beats.

gates quit rapping after tombstone died, and sin left mo thugs, and signed with another ex-mo thug artist, but still hasnt released anything.

in my opinion, bone thugs, are sellouts. they've gone commercial, and the realest members bizzy and flesh arent with them now. layzie is a bitch, and krayzie and wish are his little yes men. and they've managed to fuck up every good thing thats com their way. and now to their true fans, their career is over.
wow, the graveyard shift completely outshined krayzie, on "silence", his own song.
