Get the hardcore points mug.Tenths of the principal of a loan. Especially the kind you get from a loan shark — your legit bank is going to speak in terms of APR instead. F'rill.
Note that “points” are *not* percents. One point is ten percent. This is why definitions of “point” as “percent” get such divided votes… it sounds kind of right, but it isn’t.
Note that “.1” is 10% — this is “one point.”
(If you doubt this, do the math with the example below, from The Sopranos Season 4, Episode 6.)

Ralph: “I won't be able to lend you money for less than two points.”
—later—
Tony: “I'll charge you a point and a half. And that's a lot fucking better than Ralph Cifaretto would do.”
—later—
Artie: “Then how am I gonna pay you back? $50,000, it'd take the rest of my life.”
Tony: “It's $51,500, vig-wise, Artie and technically, you already missed a payment.”

Get the Points mug.1. a system of points devised to determine the cool level of a person...points are given and taken on a 5 or 10 point basis...r if the action is really bad a maximum of 25 points can be taken. After hitting the -30 mark you can officially be condered as a carier of S.A.R.S. (see also S.A.R.S.)
ChronicMasterbator took something i made up and made a definition fo it...me and tony madeit up...not him...he loses 25 points...and seeing as though he was already at -20 he now has -50...he has died of S.A.R.S.

Get the cool points mug.Scene points are defined as a tossers way of making people cool.
You gain scene points in many ways. The most common being:
- saying you dont like alcohol and getting wasted on beer
- putting <3 instead of a heart sign
- appearing at drinking establishments such as 'The Quayside' or 'The Winebar.'
- having a myspace which includes pictures taken from ambiguous angles. Bonus points are gained for changing the colour of faces on them.
- going to the local goth's house party just to say "I was there."
- getting the bus home after a boozy night out
- wearing tight pants
- wearing tight shirts
- having a ridiculous hairstyle. i.e. beyond shoulder length, spiked up, covering the eyes, dyed dark black/green/purple
- treating the common area of your local college or place of learning as a second home
- listening to bands who have more screams than actual lyrics themselves
- buying t shirts of such bands
However. There are ways of losing scene points. These include:
- Raveing to pleasure rooms in chavvy bars and nightclubs
- wear nike, adidas, reebok or other sporting brands of clothing
- have a common haircut such as short back and sides or a skinhead
- listening to songs which includes words and are under 50 decibels loud
- driving
- not commenting someone back or not accepting a friend request on myspace.
There are many more ways scene points can be gained or lost. But this is the tosser's definition.

For example. A once normal and upstanding citizen of the community could gain 5 scene points by going to the winebar, turning up in tight clothes, refusing beer then drinking it, taking obscure pictures whilst in there, then getting the bus home.
However, such a person could redeem themselves by getting a short back n sides, driving to the old town wearing an adidas tracksuit, going to a rave, enjoying beer then get a taxi home.

Get the scene points mug.While a passenger in a car, and you see people walking on the road, one yells, "Bonus Points", and the driver runs over, or threatens to run over the pedestrians.
Billy: Bonus Points!
Ricky: (Floors on the gas pedal)
The pedestrians leap int the snow off of the road.

Get the Bonus Points mug.Quasi-pro political 'blog' website that presents left-center prespective without the shrill narrative of the loonies.
Has a sister website called 'TPMmuckraker' that consistently seems to scoop a lot of the juciest political gossip.

I tried to read Daily Kos, but was totally turned off by how totally out-there all the writers are. Later, I found Talking Points Memo and felt a lot more at ease and realized that I'd finally found a source of information that isn't controlled by the government and isn't run by UFO-chasers. Finally!

Get the talking points memo mug.n--similar to street cred or comicred: indicates punkredibilty, but usually ironic: 1. for calling out posers 2. for calling out someone 'in the scene' who's putting on 'old school' airs
Right, dude, buying all your clothes from Hot Topic just earns you loads of punk rock points. (first usage)
Yeah, Mike thinks he's soooo cool, like he's got the high score in punk rock points, or something. (second usage)
