Shaft Shift

Just when you thought you’ve seen or done it all, an up-and-coming internet trend, designed exclusively for expert global social media afficionados, manifests to show the world what you’re made of.

Welcome to the SHAFTSHIFT challenge.

A challenge poster paints his or her shaft silver or grey with appropriate makeup or paint, then places an automobile stick shift boot over the painted shaft to cover up the 2 nuts secured to the bottom end of the shaft. A black colored racquetball, or the likes, is placed over the head of the shaft to completely conceal the flanged terminal as a shift knob. If installed properly, the shift knob and shift boot will leave only the silver colored shaft visually exposed. (non-discernable appendage) A gloved hand then proceeds to “run through the gears”, to the dubbed sound of an actual audio recording of a manual-transmission shift cycle. (driving or fingerless style gloves are recommended) This should start from idle and go through all available gears to the highest gear audibly discernable. If successfully accomplished, recorded and posted, this qualifies the poster to hashtag as a #shaftshift post. If equipped with a longer bus or truck style gearstick, the poster is allowed to also grip under the shift knob with a gloved second hand, in attempt to qualify for a #doubleclutch identifier as well.
I'm sick of internet girls getting all the attention with their moundpacking and cameltoe posts. I will show them up with a shaft shift they cannot even compete with!

Sheffield Wednesday

..... Wendy / Wednesday Bastards / Pigs / Scum (whichever takes your fancy at the time). A poor football team and the laughing stock of Sheffield; spending the last 9 years in the shadow of Sheffield United. Pigs play at a large but crumby ground on the outskirts of Sheffield city centre (Hillsborough).

Pigs, in any response to someone who makes fun of their "MASSIVE" club, will try to come back with information about the glory days of wendy. Constantly rewinding to the 90's, when their club reached 3rd in the first tier of English football. What they won't tell you, is that they were relegated in 2000, and that they have never finished above United in the league since then. If you ever have the misfortune to visit the Pigs’ ground on a match day, you'll find it’s half empty. This is the result of most people avoiding the embarrassment of being seen there.

In the season just gone (08/09), pigs managed to pull the double over United. Apparently, this maintains their status as a “MASSIVE” club. Even though they failed to reach the championship play-offs (finishing 12th), which united did (finishing 3rd), pigs still maintain their deluded mind-set that they are “Yorkshires best club”, a title which in actual fact, is currently held by hull (sheffield united being 2nd).

Here’s how to distinguish a wednesday bastard from a united fan. You may see a mentally impaired person, wearing a pigs shirt, lingering outside a farm. This is a prime example of a wendy fan. Just open the gate and let them scurry on back in there. Alternatively, you might see a person looking at the league table and smiling. This would be a united fan, who is clearly enjoying the fact that pigs still can’t compete to the same level as united. Generally, Scum can be spotted in a museum (squeezing every last drop out of their long since gone success), in small numbers at Hillsborough or in a barn yard. Blades can be spotted at beautiful downtown bramall lane enjoying life as fans of the bigger club in Sheffield, and looking FORWARD to the likelihood of promotion.
Blade 1: Wanna hear a joke?
Blade 2: Go on then
Blade 1: Sheffield Wednesday!!
All The Blades: Wheyyyyy Lets all laugh at Wednesday!!

Pig: our club is MASSIVE and will always be better than united
Blade: …name me one season in the last 9 years when you finished above us in the table
Pig: errrm urrrm…
Blade: Jog on you deluded little pig; we're all blades aren't we?

c-shift

C-shift was invented so A-shift and B-shift didn't have to work every other day at the fire station. They are in touch with their feminine side. If you work overtime on c-shift you will get stuck watching the Lifetime Channel or Dancing With the Stars. Forget about football or any other sports. C-shifters are also known as the maids of the fire department because they love to clean the station every shift. Their favorite day is station day. In fact you may see c-shifters fight over who is going to clean the bathroom or mop the floor. When they graduate from the academy they are issued skirts, aprons, and their favorite cleaning tool of choice. C-shift is also known as the care bears of the three shifts because they think every call is a chance for them to be a shoulder to cry and and they are on scene forever trying to figure out whether to transport the patient or not. They also complain about everything. If a c-shifter won the powerball they would find something to complain and cry about. Last but not least you couldn't depend on anyone on c-shift to give you decent relief. If their lives depended getting to the station before 7:45AM they would all die. In conclusion the "c" in c-shift stands for complaining, crying, cleaning, care bears, and constantly late.
I am supposed to take my kid to school this morning but there isn't anyone to relieve me yet. Good old c-shift relief......

Who filled up the DVR with "Dancing With the Stars" and erased the football game? It must have been c-shift!

Hell Shift

A hell shift is a particularly bad work schedule for any given day. Usually a hell shift involves working more than 12 hours in a continuous block, but it could also reference a late night shift followed by a lengthy early morning shift.
Today I am working a hell shift; my shift requires me to get up at 5am and work until 7pm. That's hell.

The Paradigm Shift

In a general sense, a change happening on a vast scale. A shift in the big picture, if you will.

Specifically "The Paradigm Shift" refers to a certain oft discussed and theorized shift in social groups concerning several different intersecting social circles. The Paradigm Shift did not happen within the originally proposed timeline of the spring of 2008, but new evidence has come to light suggesting that The Paradigm Shift may still be happening, just on a larger timeline and consisting of not exactly the same changes as earlier expected.
"The Paradigm Shift" may still come to manifest itself in the first quarter of 2009.
