The right to complain

Christopher Hitchens warned not to let people take away your right to complain. When he said it he was talking about Islam specifically but I think it speaks to a broader point about what's happening in society today.

Hym "No. Don't fuckin listen to Matt. He knows and has conceded entirely that he is not fit to be a mustache-man. He lives a life of shame as a disgusting smooth-face and should be treated with nothing but contempt and derision. The right to complain, however, IS fit to be a mustache-man. It is our fundamental right. The CARDINAL right from which all other rights are derived. The conservatives are trying to take that away from you (not in a legislative capacity but a social capacity) with their 'Stop complaining and get back to work, slaves' rhetoric and the Liberals are trying to take that right away ( again, not in a legislative capacity but in a social capacity) with their 'Anti-aggrievement' rhetoric that presupposes the grievances of the under-class that you are allowed not to give a shit about are illegitimate. Reject this blatant and repugnant attack on our rights! I am aggrieved! I have a right to BE aggrieved! And my rights will not be denied!"

Right Full Rudder

The act of waiting until the last possible second before enacting a plan - barely averting a disaster - while operating under the assumption that it's necessary to wait until the last possible second in order to prevent other - and potentially worse - disasters.

4:50 PM
Alison: "Pat, we really need to make the call NOW to book the really expensive location for this stupid tv commercial shoot, or else the location is going to fall through and we won't have anywhere else to shoot."
Pat: "What's my drop dead deadline?"
Alison: (Heavy sigh) "5 PM."
Pat: "OK."

4:59 PM
Alison: "PAT!!!!"
Pat: "OK, let's book it. Right full rudder."
Alison: (Under breath) "Jesus f-ing christ."

Miami right

When you make a right turn on red from a lane other than the right most lane, usually to avoid traffic that is using the right lane to go straight through the intersection.

“I was late to work, and made a Miami right cause some jackass was taking to long to turn”
