CommonCrafty

A style of short video usually geared toward web newbies. The videos are characterized by a white table-like surface over which hand-drawn and computer printed manipulatives are moved about to demonstrate a technology. The audio is usually punctuated by excited "yays" and "boos" and accompanied by hand gestures such as thumbs-up/down, hang loose and finger snaps. The CommonCrafty style was popularized by the "...in Plain English" line of videos available on YouTube.

Commonsensualist

One who lives ones/it's life based on the laws of common sense.
"LaValle is definitely a Commonsensualist! He seems to rarely make the same mistake twice. I guess common sense would tell you not to try something 'that way' a second time. And he seems to be good at figuring things out as well..."

jefferson commons

A nicer version of the dorms. This is where students go expecting more freedom from the dorms, only to be disappointed by a security force, second only to the KGB in fairness and Homer Simpson in intelligence. More rules here than at Grandma's house, except Grandma treated you more like an adult when you were 5 than the staff treats you now. More Ghetto people per square mile here than anywhere in Sactown.
Jefferson Commons Apartments are the worst ever.
Hey, I like to be treated like I'm 10 years old, I should move to Jefferson Commons.

tragedy of the commons

The unfortunate predicament caused when a public resource, such as a natural resource like land or game, is consumed by everyone but maintained by no one.

Everyone feels they have the right to consume because they are part of the public, but no one feels it their responsibility to maintain it because they are not individually accountable.
