concentric

You will learn this in geometry.

Concentric means "sharing the same center". Con- = used multiple times, -Centric = center-related. (like cooperate: multiple people doing the same task)

So, it's like a dartboard or bullseye: the circles are all around the same point.

Something three-dimensional, like cylinders (water bottles, spray cans), may be coaxial.
The solar system is concentric. All the planets orbit the sun.

A properly set table has the bowls and plates concentric.

Converted Cat Hater

A person who had a lifetime hatred of cats. One who used to tell tales of how evil they were. Then one day their girlfriend or wife, or kid, or etc. forces them to live with a cat. Cats are attracted to cat haters. This particular cat also turns out to be intelligent, friendly and loving. The cat hater eventually sees kitty do something funny, looks at kitty and says, " You'll do cat,you got a home with me." At this point kitty will look at the former cat hater and blink hi eyes one time. In cat talk this can mean different things but in this case it means "I like you too."

A converted cat hater becomes a cat defender. They get angry when people say bad things about them. They become homicidal if they think somebody is going to hurt their cat.
Two bored teenagers are crusing a tiny midwestern village late at night.
Teen 1; I'm bored man, lets do something, lets tear this fucking little town up, take that gun and shoot at some houses.

Teen 2; This is the town where Billy was killed. He shot at a house and within 15 seconds half the town was shooting at him.

Teen 1, Bad idea, take my pellet rifle, it makes less noise, and start shooting their fucking cats. Everybody in this town hates cats. We will be hero's to them.

Teen 2. Aims the pellet rifle at a cat but before he can shoot the back window of their car explodes. Then they hear the distinct sound of another round being jacked in to a pump shot gun.

Teen 1. "Lets get the fuck out of here dude!" "That's a converted cat hater with a gun and they WILL kill us."

The teens later meet their buddies. They tell their friends "Some asshole shot our back window out but that's OK." We really beat the shit out of him and we tore that little town up before we left," "You shoulda seen it man, they was all scared of us and acting like bitches."

age of consent

The age of consent is the age at which a person is deemed mentally fit to control their own sex lives.

Contrary to popular belief the age of consent is rarely 18, statistically speaking, except for people in a position of authority. (teachers, step moms and stepdads, babysitters etc). There is a difference between taboo law ("nothing under 18") and real law ("the age of consent is 16 in connecticut"). The reason they differ is because lawmakers are forced to do something that society isnt: be honest.
Also contrary to popular belief you do NOT have to be an adult to be arrested for statutory rape (sex with someone under the legal age).

The age of consent varies from state to state country to country. It's wise to consult an attorney if you are dating a minor and ask about local laws.
"B.T was a diagnosed as having clinical pedophilia at the age of 16. At 17 he slept with an 8 year old girl well under the legal age of consent and was charged with child rape."
