Bowenize

To report things that are true in isolation, but act to deliberately distort the overall message by a deliberate act of omission.

So called in honour of Jeremy Bowen, a BBC editor who struggles with the concept of objectivity, but is a term of general use.

The news reports of Hamas's missile attacks and Israel's response was clearly seen to be heavily Bowenized.

tower bower

A person of the Muslum faith who has to pray in the direction of Mecca.

I think the person that moved in next door is a tower bower.

Bruce Bowen

Quite possibly the dirtiest player in the NBA. The worst thing to happen to the NBA in a long, long time.

Rob: "WHAT THE EFF?! Did you see Bruce Bowen just knee Steve Nash in the crotch?"
Bob: "Yeah, but I'm not surprised. He's Bruce Bowen, dude. That's what he DOES."

Do Something Productive with Your Bowels

Something you say when you want someone or something to go to the bathroom.

Dog, do something productive with your bowels.
