A legal business entity that:
- begs for its income like a well-dressed pan-handler,
- and ensures it spends most of that income on executive pay, and advertising to get more income,
- then spends most of the rest on services run by friends of the executives,
- and gives a pittance on most of the employees that keep them operating.
Typically they don't solve the problem they are raising funds for.

That Susan G Komen For the Cure spent 60% on advertising and payroll, but only 5% on treating cancer; I guess she's a non non-profit.

Get the non-guymug. Any Republican candidate running for president who is neither a phony conservative or who holds or has held highly liberal views either at one time or another. To qualify to be a "non Romney," one must not say he or she is "severely conservative" despite a liberal record (i), is not a puppet promoted by the Republican Establishment (ii), and is not often trumpeted by the Obama Media as the acclaimed "Frontrunner" and thus treated as such (iii). A true "Non Romney," in essence, isn't a robot but has real conservative credentials and principles.
2012 Republican candidates Herman Cain, Michelle Bachmann, Rick Perry, Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich have all been at one point or another "Non Romneys" during the primary.

Get the Non-givingmug. An anecdote that has the setup of a joke (background info, character introductions), but as it goes on, it is revealed to be an anecdote, usually ending in a serious or somber way; can be described as a form of dark humor in some cases.
A man has a dream where a gorilla steals his banana. He tells his wife about his strange dream. She ignores him completely and goes back to sleep. The man rolls over, and he cries as he realizes his marriage is in shambles. (This is an example of a non-joke)
