transatlanticism

n. The state of being in a long-distance relationship with another person over the Atlantic Ocean, for example, with one participant living in the United States and the other living in the United Kingdom, along with the emotions that accompany such a state, such as the desire of physical intimacy, melancholy and hope.

(Named after Death Cab For Cutie's fourth album, and the title track from that album which discusses such a concept.)

The Transatlantic method

The Transatlantic method is where you get your trans friend of either gender and if a trans boy you grab each other’s dicks and say “FIRE IN THE HOLE” and fill the room with cum then grab a canoe and fuck in the canoe while the room is filled with cum but if it’s a trans girl you combine both pussy juice and cum together and fill the room with the mixture and also grab a canoe and fuck in it

Mitchell: Ahh my n-word! Your trans rights?
Jess: yeah why?
Mitchell: wanna to the Transatlantic method?
Jess: sure
