Ginger Prince

A Ginger Prince is a phrase commonly used to describe a friend in social circles who has ginger hair but however is not a Prince. The irony in the phrase comes from the recipient of said phrase being not of royal extract but definitely being Ginger.

The origins of the phrase come from the UK. Prince Harry of Windsor is the second son to Prince Charles, the Prince of Wales and the late Princess Diana. Prince Harry unlike his brother has Ginger Hair and has been known by the media and press as the ‘Ginger Prince’.

The common use of the phrase ‘Ginger Prince’ used to describe a friend who has Ginger Hair caught on in the UK after this use by the press of the term. The phrase is now common across the UK and is deemed more affectionate and ironic than derogatory.

Person 1: Where’s Micky T?
Person 2: Who? You mean the Ginger Prince?! He’ll be here for Lasties fella.

Ginneken

Ginneken - An alcoholic beverage which consists of three parts Heineken and one part ginger ale. The drink was discovered by S.J. Mesaros and J.P. May on September 29th, 2009. After everyone had enjoyed Heineken and ginger ale separately they decided to mix the bevarages by filling 3/4 of a cup with Heineken and the remainder with ginger ale. To determine if the drink was "too good to be true", the inventors invited friends to try the experimental blend. It was quickly a hit and people were not shy to ask for seconds.

To determine if the concoction was truely original, research was conducted and it was concluded that the Ginneken was the first of its kind. Soon after the discovery, additional mixes have been attempted. Among those with promise So is the "Verneken," a mix of Verner's soda with Heineken. Feeling overwhelmed? The inventors suggest adding one shot of your finest gin to the mix for a bold adventure.

So, whether you are sitting at home or spending a night out on the town, pour yourself a Ginneken and you will be saying "pour me another!"

The Ginyu Force's names are all puns off of dairy products and the members are Captain Ginyu, a purple body-snatching alien with horns; Jeice/Jheese, a bright red guy with white hair who for some reason in one of the dubs has an Australian accent; ReCoome/Rikumu/ReaCoome, a very creepy alien guy who manages to beat the crap out of Vegeta; Burter/Butta, a tall blue alien dude who is "the fastest in the universe"; and Guldo/Ghurd/Gurd, a tiny green guy who can stop time but only for as long as he can hold his breath for. The Ginyu Force has an entrance dance similar to that of Team Rocket. All are very, very camp.

Gingzilla

A big, fat, butch, ugly, red-headed, freckle-faced ginger girl. Nobody knows exactly their origin but experts have hypothesized that it is the product of a leprechaun mating with Godzilla. Rarely seen; however, beware! Unlike other gingers who simply do not have souls, a gingzilla sucks all living souls from anyone within a 10 mile radius!
...and in other news, a Gingzilla was spotted today in downtown Bracebridge. Please stay in your homes. If anyone has any further information about this creature please contact your local Animal control. Do not leave your homes unless it is an emergency and make sure to bring a weapon. This is Tricia Takanawa reporting. Back to you Tom!

Ginger Transition Temperature

This is the temperature up to which the ginger is said to be more relaxed and comfortable. Approaching 16'C there is a slight change in state (Tg) from relaxed to mildly irritated. a colour transition is also noted (typically - white to pale pink).

It does depend on how quickly you heat them up tho and to which max temp (25-30'C). Note here that a fast heating rate will cause non-relaxation and charring...

if you employ a typical heating rate of 1'C/min across a range of -4'C to 16'C you will cause the subject to go through what is called the Tg or ginger Transition temperature.

The next step is to slow the heating rate to 0.2'C/min as anything in excess of this can cause ginger stress in the subject (indicated by pink cheeks and a frown).

En route to 25'C it is imperative to introduce the chemical SPF 1000000 or White Exterior Walls Gloss Paint. This allows the ginger to slowly come to terms with the external environment.

If however the system is feeling imbalanced on a particular day then a coating of tin foil and cellotape can also be utilised for masking any external environmental influence.

after 25'C the system may become unstable and pink cheeks and frown are subject to progress into bouts of severe irritation.A whining noise is also typically noted at ca. 27'C.

After which the subject will char severely and rapidly degrade into a pile of angry ash.
Guy 1: Where did that ginger go to?

Guy 2: Oh the temperature increased from 16'C to 24'C quite quickly there...

Guy 1: Ah the ginger transition temperature was reached way too quickly...... thats what happens when they think they have souls...

Guy 2: check your shoes, the last thing I need is a Tg red waffle stain.... the wife would not be impressed....
