converse

Daddy's old basketball shoes. Now bought by teenaged girls wanting to be "retro". Often worn with clothes bought from American Eagle.

Old Guy: I used to wear converse when I played b-ball with the boys...
Teenaged Girl: Whatever. I'm going to the mall to buy new shoes.

torque converter

The device used in a vehicle equipped with an automatic transmission. Used to change gears, taking the place of a clutch, in a manual transmission. Has many downfalls, but commonly used in the United States because, sadly, no one can drive stick anymore. For example, the hydraulic fluid can be starved on hills, leading to transmission failure. While pulling large loads, the converter may overheat, which is why it is not used for large trucks. Robs the engine of power, as power is lost in the conversion process. Fuel efficiency is also lost, same reason as above. Excessive repair costs, as the fluid in the converter is required to be replaced every so often.

Torque converters make baby seals cry.

Conversational

1. A place or thing that promotes conversation.

2. When you don't have another word to describe something.

See that paint color? It's very conversational.

See his Afro? It's very conversational? I could talk about it all day.

Do you like the furniture placement? 'Yes, it's very conversational.'

How does that make you feel? 'I feel...very conversational.'

Can also be used sarcastically. Look at that turtle! It's very conversational.

Conversion therapy

A form a brain washing through mild torture thought by ignorant bible bashing fuckwits and some soviets to cure people of being anything other than heterosexual and if possible white or poor or foreign.

Ignorant fuckwit 1: “That f*ggot like men he need conversion therapy !”
THE REST IF THE WORLD: “H can do as he likes. Get out of my sight “

Convertible Balloon Syndrome

After listening to Wavves' "King Of The Beach" album, I discovered I hated the song "Convertible Balloon." I had to delete it, but for some strange reason, I couldn't. This is when I discovered I had Convertible Balloon Syndrome. Now I can't just put a few songs from an album on my iPod, I have to have the entire album. It seems to be contagious because I have spread it to a friend. If you think you may have the godawful disease, you share my pain.

I can't delete that song because I have Convertible Balloon Syndrome.
