Semantic field

When a text (anything with words, whether it be spoken or written) has a topic or subject that a group of words relate to. If a passage of writing included the words
"heart", "flower", "love", "music", "passion" the semantic field would most likely be considered 'love'. A semantic field of love. Also the lexis may be referred to as "flowery" or even femnine

semanatics

a word you use to further piss off detailed oriented people when they're squabbling over what clearly are to you, moot points, or matters of minor significance, surface shit. when used correctly, it elicits immediate correction from the offended party.

- "cucumbers are my favorite vegetable"
- "actually, cucumbers are a fruit"
- "whatever, enough semanatics"
- "it's semantics, and i don't see how that applies to this"

Semantics

An argument, or a type of guarantee that the outcome of your statement can be taken in two or more ways which will benefit you in either way it’s perceived. The *careful* use of semantics can be applied to situations which allow you to be right in any reverse query. You’re basically using their own ignorance against them. See example...

“I put up an ad on craigslist and used your picture.” This could mean the person used a picture that the other party has taken of them, or they used a picture of the other party. The answer has been concealed within semantics and incomplete phrasing.

semiotics

Codeword for "I'm a big bitch." Used often by pseudointellectuals, "artists" who don't do art but talk about it, and philosophy academics that think with their crotch and talk out their asshole.

As an artist, I'm interested in semiotics and the relationship between excreta and the soul.

semiotic war

Conducting a war using a full range of signs and symbols -- but pointedly excluding violence or other unlawful or violent acts. A war of ideas in the age of internet and multimedia. Compare scamizdat.

The Internet's response to Scientology's attempt to rmgroup alt.religion.scientology included publishing their trade-secret "scriptures," graphically reviling them, putting billboards on trucks and buses, hosting radio talk-show segments, songwriting, projecting laser glyphs on walls, having aircraft pull pennants with slogans, picketing their headquarters, deconstructing their newsletters, creating cartoon lampoons and webpages, and, in other words, full semiotic war.

sementitious material

Material resembling male ejaculate (i.e. semen). Not to be confused with cementitious material.

CORRECT: I left some sementitious material in your mom's birth canal last night.

INCORRECT: I can't tell if that is drywall or plaster so let's just call it sementitious material.
