Get the Rollin' mug.Rowland High School (John. A. Rowland) is in a little town called Rowland Heights. Rivals being "Nogales High School". Although, it's not much too compete with. Rowland is full of spoiled rich kids who drive nice cars or a Honda Civic. They are low-key pot lovers but still get good grades so no one really complains. Rowland wins plenty of awards and is a great school to attend. Everyone pretty much gets along with everyone, with a cat fight here and there (usually because a slut stole another slut's boyfriend). Class of 2009 and 2012 are known to be the baby making machines! At the end of the day, Rowland High Schoolers get their shit done. They party, smoke and manage to get into the best colleges out there. You drink your boba (asian drink) and go to Jack in the box on early days. Everyone tries to be the same type of cool that it's quite entertaining. Again, no one really complains so it just kinda happens. Summary: Partiers but still smart, asian ruled, nice cars and very chill.
Guy: I wanna go to a school where it's just chill and everyone does their thing. Something like Rowland High School.

Get the rowing mug.One of the hardest sports in existence. Everything else is just a game. Rowing is not to be confused with sculling, in which each person holds 2 sculling blades compared to just one in rowing.
Rowing is about racing, mostly over 2000 meters. Boats can range from holding one sculler, to 8 rowers and a cox. The whole aim of a good rower is to get his blade into the water, pull as hard as he can and get the blade out again. He has to do this as efficiently as possible, ensuring his energy goes into making the boat move forward rather than slowing down.
The stroke a rower takes can be divided into seperate parts:
1. Back stops, where the rower is sitting back with the blade close to his body ready to move off, with the blade turned 45 degrees in relation to the water.
2. The arms move out to full extension.
3. The body leans forward
4. The legs compress moving the body up the slide until the shins of the rower are vertical. (this is called front stops)
5. The catch, where as soon as the rower reaches front stops the blade is placed in the water and pulled as hard as the cox tells you to.
6. Reverse the steps above with the blade in the water, bringing the blade back round to the body
7. The finish, where the blade is raised out of the water and feathered to lower air resistance, ready to start another stroke.
The rowing season essentially never ends, if the weather is bad outside we do ergo's and weights in the gym. Ergos are soul destroying hateful pieces of equipment. If possible stay well away from them.
However, rowing is the most rewarding sport, i got into the first 8 at school and now we are getting ready to race at Henley Royal Regatta. :D

Get the Rowing mug.Term used when a driver does not come to a complete stop at a stop sign, and instead slowly rolls through the intersection when no cross traffic is present. It is the same as a California Roll but performed by drivers in Michigan.
"Aren't you going to stop?"
"I did. Michigan Rolling Stop."
"Right. I'm sure the cop behind us totally didn't notice."

Get the Michigan Rolling Stop mug.A term coined in the 2020s by streamer RTGame, a rowling refers to someone you genuinely don't want to mention because you're so disapointed to even say their name (unspeakable disapointment).
The term in essence is used when you do not wish to say someones name. This could be for a variety of reasons but is meant to be used when the reason comes from a negative light. Some such reasons being immeasurable disappointment in their actions, hatred for who they are or have become, or a complete wish to not show the respect of speaking of them by name, instead calling them a rowling.
The etymology of the term comes from Joanne "JK" Rowling, whom many don't even want to mention due to her awful values in accordance with transgender folks along with her racism and utter stupidity in going from beloved childrens author, to widely known terf and bigot. The term comes about in comparison to the character in her books Voldemort, who most do not want to mention by name because of their fear of him, or in another context because they do not believe his name deserves to be said. Joanne became a rowling when she decided to show her true self in all her bigotry, making people hate her, or so disappointed in her that they do not want to even say her name.
