whole paycheck

A nickname for Whole Foods Market, the now-famous purveyor of (rather high-priced) organic and fresh foods and sundries.

i'm headed to Whole Paycheck to pick up a dozen organic, cage-free, range-free, vegetarian-fed eggs and some sustainably farmed, sprouted quinoa; good thing i just completed that second mortgage.

karma payment plan

A system by which seemingly magical improvements in one's life are given by mysterious forces in exchange for a sense of unease not unlike that given from selling one's soul, often actually (but not always) resulting in misfortune.

Taken from the Modest Mouse song "Karma's Payment" and the unfailingly portentious cynicism of Isaac Brock.

"Remember that huge freaking electrical storm we had a couple weeks back? I stood out in the middle of it on the roof of like this chicken coop and held a metal guitar above my head. I didn't get struck by lightning, but I suppose that's just because God has something special, something much, much worse that he's saving for me."

My car broke down out in the street
The radiator sprung a leak
I met this guy, he said he could help me
(I'm on the karma payment plan)
We went to his house and did some speed
He said karma would pay for this deed
He got it fixed and he
Started to scare me...
I ditched him eventually
And came back for the van
The next morning
(I'm on the karma payment plan)
I went to LA the next day I got
Jacked in a really bad way
I can't tell you...
It's a long story.

paycheck shock

One of life's biggest disappointments.It is the dejection/rage experienced by first time workers when they get their very first paycheck and realize they don't get to keep the entire $5.25 they thought they were working for.

My son experienced paycheck shock when he saw all the stuff deducted from his gross pay.

Pace Academy

where the preppy and wealthiest kids in Buckhead attend. Snobs that are being trained to become Buckhead mom and dads drive up in their porches and range rovers to a place that looks like a castle and a high school that was 36 million dollars. They show up wearing their Gucci sweatshirts and Balenciaga shoes. The teachers drive Tesla's and work there for fun while finding groundbreaking research for math equations or NASA. The absolute hardest school to get through. Instead of winning State in sports they win state champs in debate. Traditions such as the first day of school, spirit week, food truck Fridays, and gap week are what make everything bearable to get through those rough days of AP's. Students typically come to school with about 2 hours of sleep from staying up late to write a 20-page paper or study for a test they were told about the day before. The Lovett students think they are smarter than a pace student but they are just idiots. A place where you are considered stupid by your classmates if your GPA is under a 97 and most everyone skips honors day assemblies because we all know that same person gets it every year and you have to have at least a 100 GPA to even be considered. A place where everyone knows each other and no gossip can stay between 2 people, everyone will find out. a place that is actually a good time even when it seems like the work is going to kill you.

Me: I wonder if there will be a party tonight?

Friend: We go to Pace Academy, there are never parties the parent's houses are worth billions of dollars they don't want us to mess it up.
