boilerplate

1. The standardized, non-specific parts of a contract; the fine print that gets tacked on by lawyers to protect themselves and their clients.

2. The unsubscription notice at the bottom of bulk emails from the spam operations that bother to pretend that they comply with the CANSPAM legislation. (first used by Paul Graham in his groundbreaking essays on spam)

Origin: The American Press Association shared its building with a sheet-iron processing plant when it was founded 1892. Chicago printers dubbed the noisy American Press offices a boilerplate factory, and boilerplate became the word used to refer to the third-rate filler that the syndicated news agency turned out.

Boiled Peanuts

A delicious snack consisting of green (raw), unshelled peanuts boiled in salt water. This delicacy is typically purchased in gas station parking lots and roadside vegetable stands and consumed by southerners of all socio-economic backgrounds. Almost always served in Styrofoam cups and wrapped in the skimpiest napkin ever made, this salty snack is intended to be shared with family and friends although it is not uncommon for asocial types to devour the whole cup as to not share any with his wife/mistress.

Boiling Springs

Town in the middle of nowhere with four black people, no stoplights, and one gas station where everyone gets their chew. If you drink, you go to mountain road extension. If you go to school (even if its once a week), it's the tight halls of BSHS. And if you fuck up, everyone knows about it. LET'S GO BUBBLERS.

Let's go to Boiling Springs so we can do nothing.

Boilermaker

A cocktail made by dropping a shot of whiskey (or whisky if you're a Scot or Canadian) into a glass of beer. Great for those who don't like straight booze but hate sweet mixers.

Boilermakers are good for time management. They make me twice as drunk in the same amount of time!

Cherry Boiler

A fart after drinking 12 or more cherry cokes in a day. The smell is that of rotten cherry coke that has been boiled.

Tyler: Damn, dude! I just ripped ass, it reeks!
Brett: You’ve been pounding cherry cokes all night, fella. Is it a cherry boiler?

Jeremy: I’ve been slamming cherry cokes and ripping cherry boilers all day, fellas. My jeans stink like molten ass.
