A conspiracy designed by neo-liberal capitalists to rob developing countries of their resources and ensure unequal distribution of wealth. This is accomplished under a claimed goal to "alleviate poverty" - an effective means to confuse the enemy (i.e. impoverished Mexican farmers, starving diamond miners in Africa, etc.).

Get the World of Warcraftmug. A level in a video game which links to all the other levels, and serves as a main area that the player will use to progress through the game. It will usually be blocked off to later levels until specific conditions are met (Such as "Collect X amount of Y."), but in some cases, the portal to the level is blocked off, but clearly visible (Such as Glover). The hub world can have more than portals to different worlds, but that is the base use of the level.

Get the Hub Worldmug. a series of comics by "Humon" that, while some are not G-rated, are very funny. Each person represents a country or island (their shirt is their flag) and are based off of steriotypes for the countries the represent. There are alot of characters, but only a few main ones:
Denmark: A drunk who says weird things at wierd times. Scared of nature. likes porn.
Sweden: A total dork; neat freak, technology wiz, very orderly.
Norway: A nature-loving fish eater. Almost always carries fish around and/or eats fish.
Finland: Comes in around the eighth comic or so. A drunk who always wears a green hat with ear flaps. Always carries a knife and a bottle of whiskey. Violent. Typically uses the word "perkele", a finnish curse word. Likes trying to stab people.
Iceland: A very sporty dude with white-blonde hair. Like paracuting into random places, especially volcanoes. Drawn with sparkles, but doesn't relly sparkle. it's just to emphasize his prettiness.
America: A bigshot who is in about a third of the comics. selfish, strange, uses canada as a hat. Butts in to the scandinavian's buisness randomly.
each of the characters also has a sister, but they aren't in there very often.
Alot of the characters are gay in some way shape or form.

Get the Scandinavia and the Worldmug. A cringe-worthy expression that companies use to lie to themselves in a derisible attempt to "re-brand" their public image.
Online Customer1: Wow, the AMEX website calls the company "world class" now.
Online Customer2: Losers.

Get the World Classmug. War of the Worlds was originally a Novel written by H.G. Wells in 1898. It is basically about how the Martians invade the Earth. They use highly advanced technology (advanced for 1898) to crush all human resistance in their path. They are initially successful and use human blood to feed their "red weed" which was plentiful on Mars before the planet started "dying" (motivation for Martians to invade). Eventually, however, the Martians die off when micro organisms make them ill as they are not immune to them (it was described that the Martians had eradicated all mirobes on Mars).
It should be noted that there is a lot of political and social commentary. For example: In the Novel Martians are being compared to the then all mighty British Empire. It also comments on Evolution (comparing the Martians to Humans), and the treatment of "inferior creatures" (it compares the Martians' treatment of Humans to the "Superior Humans'" treatment of animals and "inferior races").
Also, the Novel Wells descibed the possible ways Chemical weapons could be deployed and predicted the coming of Lasers (the Heat-Rays).

War of the Worlds is one of the greatest science fiction novels of all time.
It is interesting to note that the Martians had failed to conquer more than the southern part of England (they only sent ten "space canisters" with only ten "fighting machines").
