synthetic materialism

A framework of material reality as a manifestation of the irreversible nature of linear time

Posits linear time, material reality, and history as illusions or antitheses of Nietzsche's nihilism.

The synthesis of Karl Marx's dialectical materialism

Synthetic materialism argues that there is no history and by extension that there is no material reality.

Rather than material reality creating the illusion of a past, synthetic materialism argues that the past creates the illusion of material reality

tui mater

Latin for "Your mom". Can be used to display one's superiority; even moreso than conventional "Your mom" usage it can, because it's in a different language and makes you sound smarter.

1: So, what're you doin' tonight?
2: Tui mater! O!
3: *face melts from display of awesomenity*

toilet material

Any material used while defecating on the toilet. Can be a magazine, shampoo bottle, or a book. This material is usually pointless, but makes for good reading while doing number 2.

Hey Joe, hand me that toilet material ( while pointing at the back of a vhs case).

safe my mate

South African slang meaning everything's OK/cool/just fine thank you. Often said with a unique hand gesture whereupon one makes a fist, with the two fingers at either side remaining extended.

"Safe my mate" is a common and accepted response to a friend's loud (often drunken) inquiry as to one's wellbeing, often from several rows back at a rugby or cricket match.
me: "Hey Mannie! Howzit going, man?"
Mannie: "Safe my mate!"

officer material

A mildly derogatory military term for someone who is totally clueless and is therefore obviously incapable of leading others.

He couldn't find his butt in the dark with a flashlight and trips over his own bootlaces. Yeah, he's real officer material all right.
