Ivory Tower

A state of sheltered and unworldly intellectual isolation.

The first mention of ivory towers is in the Bible, Song of Solomon 7:4 (King James Version):

Thy neck is as a tower of ivory; thine eyes like the fishpools in Heshbon, by the gate of Bathrabbim: thy nose is as the tower of Lebanon which looketh toward Damascus.

The contemporary figurative meaning is of a place of unworldly isolation. This may be in allusion to the famous Hawksmoor Towers of Oxford University's All Souls' College, which are ivory in colour (or at least, they were when they were built in 1716). The relative lateness of the first uses of the phrase (below) tend to argue against that derivation.

"Each member of society must be ever attentive to his social surroundings - he must avoid shutting himself up in his own peculiar character as a philosopher in his ivory tower."

Towelie

The ultimate guide to the wisdom of being high. Towelie is synonimous with everything about being part of the 21st century and being high - the things that he says and does hold true and close meanings to our everyday lives.

"Towelie, you're the worst character ever" - You're so not! :)

"You wanna get high" - meaning yeah life is a bummer, but we can easily forget that.

"Don't forget to bring a towel" - It's like love itself, bring a towel and everyone will love you. See also Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy.

"Oh man, I'm so high right now, I have no idea what is going on" - You're damn straight!

Paper town

A town that is shallow,fragile, and fake.

Look at all those cul-de-sacs, the streets that turn in on themselves all the houses that were built to fall apart. All those paper people in their paper houses burning the furniture to stay warm. All the paper kids drinking the beer some bum bought for them at the paper convenience store. Everyone demented with the mania of owning things. All the things paper-thin and paper-frail. It's just a paper town.
