Get the el stanko mug.Sankofa viewing — Sankofa is an African word from the Akan tribe in Ghana. The literal translation of the word and it associated symbol is “it is not taboo to fetch what is at risk of being left behind.”
In contemporary parlance a Sankofa viewing is going back and watching to prior episodes of a series that you are bingeing to both refresh your memory and to see if the series is well written.
By tracing the backstories of the major characters you will easily be able to tell if the story arcs are well planned; or, if a group of writers are just throwing some third act plot twist shite against a wall to see if it will stick!!!!!
For practicing this art I DO NOT RECOMMEND THE WALKING DEAD OR ANY OF ITS CLONES because you will be terribly disappointed by the writing and a group of writers were throwing a lot of third act plot twist shite against the wall to see if it would stick!!!!!!!
The Sopranos, on the other hand, will not disappoint and rewards rewatching, They were telling you where it was going from episode one.
Amazingly, when you get good at this with binge watching visual mediums, it may be useful to read a book or two. Most good books reward a Sankofa Reading. After all, isn’t that why writing was invented?
But, ya gotta start somewhere.

When you have jerked off too much in one day it effects your performance of your next day duties (ie: work,sporting event,church). A spankover can also occur from staying up late waiting for everybody to fall asleep so you can beat off causing you to very tired the next morning. When you drink too much you get a hangover and when you whack off too much you get a spankover.
Matt your performance at work has been terrible today! Ya my wife and kids went out for the day and I whacked off all day and now I have a real spankover!

Get the Stank Butt mug.the worst smelling, dirtiest house on the block. residing inside is usually a fat, lazy person with poor personal hygiene. you can't see the carpet through the stains and taco bell wrappers. if you attended a party you would not feel bad if you messed something up, whether you spilled your drink or set the place on fire. dog smells are only one of a handful of unpleasant odors emulating from, well, everywhere. avoid this house at all costs.

dude, you mean at the stank pit? hell no, last time i went to a party there i woke up with herpa-gono-syphyl-aids, and a fat bitch sitting on my face

Get the stank chuck mug.n. - The scenario where one, with no other options, enters a public restroom having to take an urgent shit, but discovers that one or more stalls is/are quietly occupied by other people with the same idea.
In an effort to be polite or keep from embarrassing themselves, no one in the restroom wants to be the first to squeeze out a loud, booming fart or firebomb a lunker into the water below for everyone to hear, so what ensues is a shit standoff.
