Naked Idealism

The act of defining and pursuing one's true dreams, especially those outside the societal norm, in an authentic, energetic and powerful manner. Also includes relating to other people and the world in a sustainable and just way. This definition was coined by the book of the same name, popular among progressive-minded and creative people.

Shirley exhibited naked idealism when she left her accounting job to pursue her long-neglected dream of becoming an environmental advocate and music performer.

A novel idea

A luxury version of "thats a good idea". A credit to someone's thought whether it be based on fact or bullshit.

Made popular during Rick Santelli's famous rant about home owner bailouts on live TV.

Santelli: "...give it to people who might have a chance to actually prosper down the road and reward people that can carry the water instead of drink the water?"

Random White Guy: "Thats a novel idea!..."

idear

The way blue collar folks from New York City, the Hudson Valley, Stamford/Greenwich, and some parts of western Fairfield County say "idea". Often pronounced this way by the working class Polaks, Italians, and Irish of the area.

Paul Sr. from OCC: "Yeah, I like workin' with Ricky, me and him come up with some good idears."

"My Uncle Tom is an old Polak bastard from Stamford, he's got some good idears!"

idear

Actually, this is how the English (meaning people from ENGLAND) themselves pronounce the word "idea." Look into it before you post, idiots.

Ralph Fiennes: My father had the right idear about dealing with *your* people.
