multitasking 

A polite way of telling someone you haven't heard a word they said. Commonly used on long conference calls, when the speaker is monotonous, boring, or couldn't make a point of one were drawn for them.
Joe: "Blah, blah corporate office blah, blah, leverage proactively blah, blah human capital and grade-A synergy, blah, blah. Do you agree, Jim?"

Jim: "I'm sorry, Joe, I was multitasking, can you repeat that?"

military grade 

something held up with tape and gum
most products use military grade to make people think the stuff they are selling is worth money.

military industrial complex 

President Dwight D. Eisenhower coined this term in his farewell address to refer to "a conjunction of an immense military establishment and large arms industry".

Here's how it works: our taxes support a massive military budget which is doled out to large defense contractors. These corporations use this money to buy politicians and impel the United States to enter unending wars in order to assure that their contracts never end and grow increasingly bloated.
Dick Cheney was Defense Secretary, CEO of Halliburton, and then Vice President of the United States, and is a key member of the military industrial complex. It kinda explains why Halliburton is profiteering off all these wars.

Virginia Military Institute 

The epitome of a senior military college. Located in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Lexington, Virginia, the Virginia Military Institute was once home to the finest military leaders serving our country since the Civil War.

The school was founded based on the principles of Cincinatus and the "Citizen Soldier" concept of societal members. Leaders in industry during peace, and leaders in combat during war. The cadets of the Virginia Military Institute were mobilized during the Civil War and marched over 80 miles from Lexington to New Market to join the ranks during the Confederate victory at that battleground.

The entire atmosphere of the school is of a spartan feel, with very little comforts in the barracks rooms, cold conrete courtyards, and stone constructed civil war era buildings. The corps of cadets forms up on the "bricks" in front of barracks for accountability formations before every meal, and typically performs two to three formal military parades per week on the post drill field.
Virginia Military Institute, the nations first state military college.

militant lesbian 

the type of lesbian that exists to hate all men, and wishes to see a world where men are all killed in a lesbian fascist uprising. notably different than your average lesbian, a decent person who simply is attracted to other women. militant lesbians are also rude to waiters
Ugh. Abigail is SUCH a militant lesbian, don’t you think? She just told me that all men should be executed!

Facebook Multitasking

The ability of some to change their facebook status, comment on someone else's status, like/dislike someone's status, add a photo, add to someone's wall, etc. on more than one electronic device at a time.
Dad: Where's your mom?

Tristan: She's on the computer, again. Changing her status or something.

Dad: I thought she was on her cell phone?

Tristan: She is...the computer, the cellular, her tablet. She's facebook multitasking.
