Birth Control Photo

On social networking sites, oftentimes individuals – especially college-aged Americans – post a certain type of profile picture that makes them completely unappealing to the opposite sex, so there is virtually no danger of impregnating another or becoming impregnated. Usually such photos involve individuals making strange faces, posturing themselves oddly, or exhibiting behaviors that compromise their individual dignity. Unlike compromising photos which are posted by third-parties who may have taken the photo and “tagged” the individual in an awkward situation or pose, the Birth Control Photo (BCP) is a photo that is self-posted by the individual in the picture.

“My brother is always posting Birth Control Photos of himself on facebook in tight jeans making strange faces. He’s never going to get laid.”

Hierarchy of Contact

In the digital age we all have a multitude of options for communication. It can be inferred that there is a kind of "Contact Hierarchy" and "Contact Continuum" as not all modes hold the same weight with communication ranging from 1-10.

Hierarchy of contact in 2010 as defined by this contributor:

1. Face to face
2. Telephone
3. Personal Letter
4. SMS, BBIM
5. Email
6. Personal message eg FB
7. Instant Message eg FB, MSN
8. Wall postings, comments
8. "Like," "Poke"
9. Nil contact.
10. Active blocking of contact.

Note: Higher order = increased responsiveness.

A more serious and/or important matter or message would attract a higher order of communication, with the top order being face to face. There are so many ways to communicate, the options are greater than ever before. But is all modes of communication the same, and attracting the same weight of force? Therefore there is a hierarchy. This may vary per user, but there is a hierarchy.

Hierarchy of Contact refers to how the more important the message or reason to communicate, or the person to communicate with, the higher in the order that communication would be. Conversely, less important is therefore lower.

Example, you really need to speak with someone about something serious, you want to face to face with them. If its not serious at all, you might make a posting on their social network wall.

At the end of the hierarchy is active blocking, where someone deliberately refuses any mode of contact.

dick thwacking contest

any exchange in which opposing parties will carry out brazen competitive acts purely based on the idea that self-fulfillment will be derived from the intensity of the sound produced when they allow the underside of their dick to drop onto a cold, granite countertop (i.e. a thwack). The louder the thwack, the more intrinsically valuable that person is to the world.

Kline keeps donating money to organizations to have buildings named after himself, and Specter reacts by donating more himself, to place his name on more buildings. It's a giant-ass dick thwacking contest.

The cold war was effectively a dick thwacking contest between the US and Russia.

contract weasel

A contract weasel is a person in a large sales organization that just sits around the office. He/she will appear busy when the boss is around. But in all actuality they are doing personal business on the company time. The only reason they are sitting there is to catch a call in or a person to walk in to the office. This type of individual is very very common in Military Recruiting offices. Although they are less common in the civilian world. Because their types of actions would get them fired. This person also has close association to the boot weasel. They think they know everything there is to know about sales but they really don't know shit.

Hey Jim who do you have going to MEPS this week? I am sending down Tim...What? you mean that dude I met last week down at the store. Yeah he came in ready to join. What the fuck? You are nothing but a damn contract weasel. Thanks for nothing you jackass now I have to go to Mount Olympus because I am going to roll a zero this month.

Disc Locked Content

A form of DLC included with games where instead of paying for downloadable content, you pay for a tiny (around 80 kilobytes) file that unlocks the content that is already on the disc.

I was going to buy additional characters for SF x Tekken, but then I realized it was disc locked content.

Contractaholic

Someone who extremely enjoys/likes a lot/ gets off on signing contracts

Generally gets into long term commitments because of the joy that comes from the moment of signature as opposed to proper long term planning.

Negative consequences of the contractaholic are working at jobs that require skills not possessed, or renting apartments to expensive to own, both resulting in premature expulsion and forcing the signing of a new contract
marriage

1. Deena left the dorm for an apartment just cause she loves signing papers, that woman is a contractaholic

2. Now she's getting married, moving into a new home and getting a new phone deal for the 3rd time this month. Talk about contractaholic
