pre-release safety-check

Refers to either:
(1) Where you ask a gal if there would be any chance of her getting pregnant before you "let go" inside of her, or
(2) Where --- prior to your letting go of a door and allowing it to close again after you've been holding it open for one or more persons passing through --- you briefly duck your head around said door to make sure there aren't any other people heading for the doorway, thus avoiding your accidentally letting the door slam in the faces of these previously-unobserved folks.
Clueless dude, speaking plaintively to a social-advice counsellor: I always make a point of performing a pre-release safety-check before I let go of a door after holding it open for others; it just seems like a lot of times, the folks who are inside the house or store yell at me to "not let the heat out" or "not let the bugs in". Well, what da HECK am I SPOSTA do --- just blindly let da door slam shut again and risk bruising someone's face?!
Counsellor (gently and seriously): Oh, nooooo --- of course not. I would suggest standing inside the doorway so that you can see both inside and outside at the same time simply by turning your head; that way, you can check for stragglers during the final few seconds while the last person is entering/exiting the room, and thus it will not take any extra time to be safe.

perfect release

A term for when someone who is playing 2k perfectly times their shot to where the shot meter turns green and there is an 100% chance the ball goes in.
That was a perfect release from the 3 point line!

stuporvised release

1. Da freeing of a still-dangerous inmate due to da warden's or parole-board's not being conscious at da time.
2. Da "conditional" freeing of a "problematic" inmate whose behavior --- or rather, MISbehavior --- while in prison indicates dat he cannot be reformed, and thus da only way dat he can be allowed to be out in public again would be if he was kept in a constant comatose state so dat he could not do anything hurtful to himself or others.
Dunno which would be more costly for da taxpayers --- keeping someone dangerous in jail, or purchasing da huge quantities of sedatives necessary for a stuporvised release.

My friend Naira Cain-N’Degeocell got pissed at me for watching the next episode of Queer Eye without a binge release.

The Release Video

A short 3 minute video released by Laila Holmes that she made to explain why she left her friends for half of the summer. The video contains 3 parts. The 1st part stating that she's back and why she left. The 2nd part on what made it hard to come back (Recovery and Relapse Phase). And the 3rd part being The Last Straw/The Hard Truth which talks about what really made her decide to come back into the world.
The Release Video really explains why she left for most of the summer.

A release of a song or album that is released but that doesn't feel like a real release. For example, remixes or remastered albums...
That "Live from Disco Rodea, Raleigh, NC? June 12th, 2005" album by the Pixies is such a non-release.
