A high school located in Northern Virginia, known as TJ or TJHSST. Focuses on science and technology. Applicants must take an admissions test consisting of an English and math portion. This is compared on a sliding scale with their GPA, and if these scores are above the cut off they make it to the second round, which requires an essay and teacher recommendations. A large number of asians attend this school. The class of 2012 was the first class where asians were actually the majority, instead of caucasians.
Has a reputation of being bad at sports because there football and basketball teams are not very good. But actually their boys soccer, cross country, crew, swimming, and several other sports have all won either states or nationals recently.
Rated by US News & World Report as the number 1 high school in the country.

A high school located in Baltimore County. A magnet schook, it has various focus programs based on the individual student's preference. But a magnet must be chosen before the student enrolls. You must also apply.
A side note: Basically run by its non-existent princpial Richard Jester, seeing as how I've only seen the man 7 times since 2006 (My freshman year). Ran by the Class of 2010. All other graduating classes bow to us. As simple as that.

For students, this means access to everything from research materials and educational apps to interactive edutainment and open resources from prestigious universities around the world technology can help students by making learning more engaging and collaborative. Rather than memorizing facts, students learn by doing and through critical thinking. This could be as simple as taking an interactive quiz in class or participating in tech-enabled group discussions. Or it could be as involved as playing educational games, practising in science experiments in a virtual lab or taking a virtual field trip

A technological boomer is someone who rejects any type of proprietary software/device and has the purpose of “tracking” you. Their argument is that newer technology, especially software and Google/Apple (which are the main distributors) devices are made with the purpose of not only bloating your device with all sorts of useless features what you will not use, but also track every step you take. A technological boomer, in this case, would become an advocate for the use of non-proprietary/free and specially open source programs. They will always say that it is totally possible to use FOSS only and be able to ditch all the corporation crap. With this in mind, you will become more free, private and safer. These “evil corporations” will no longer be able to see the shady/explicit content on the websites you visit.
They also say that smartphones are evil (because they are controlled by these big corps.) and people should take a step back and return to the old days when we only had cellphones with no GPS/internet capability and stop with the use of social media because they make you addictive to them and actually get a proper life by raising up your arse and going outside and meet people in real life rather than giving all your data to a company that could use it against you if they wanted to.

Have you seen that Luke Smith guy on YouTube? Man, he is definitely a technological boomer! He is always saying we should stop using proprietary stuff and that these big tech companies are selling our data to advertisers.

A term used my Min Yoongi aka Suga of BTS/Agustd, referenced in his song Agustd in the album of the same name.
Suga explains how he is a great fast rapper and this term hints that he is able to please with his tongue.
Hong Kong is Korean slag for a women's orgasm, using this meaning he can get you to reach your orgasm with his tongue and that he can send you to a distant location knowing he has talent in more than one way.

Technology designed to help make life or tasks easier for people, both at work and in our daily lives.
An example of an assistive technology is a barcode scanner. It is used to increase the speed at which the cashier calculates the price of goods.
