Invitational

When you create a gathering with a highly inviting quality about it especially a party or big event. When something is very attractive and community driven it is invitational.

"That art festival was so invitational, everybody was welcome to join in and it makes me want to bring my crew next time."

Zombie Defense Initiative (ZDI)

zombie defense initiative (ZDI)
Just what is the ZDI? We're a group of like minded individuals who realise the dangers presented by reanimated corpses. We enjoy classic and modern zombie movies and literature, and we have lengthly conversations that start with two questions: What if, and What Would I do?

Fact: 99.9997% of all college students are unprepared for a large scale zombie disaster
Fact: No federal funding is allocated towards a specialized zombie defense program
Fact: Preparation is the only provenly effective weapon against the undead

Can you honestly say you're ready for a zombie attack?

Learn the truth about decapitation, the effectiveness of fire, and the importance of a well thought out plan.

Join up with ZDI and form a local chapter. Figure out defense plans and evacuation routes from your dormitory. Assemble a crack team and start training. Study the ways of Bruce Campbell. Its not a question of if they'll rise. Its a question of when.

The Zombie Defense Initiative now has chapters at the following insitutions of higher learning:
ZDI-Boston University
ZDI-University Wisconsin-Madison
ZDI-Colby
ZDI-Fairfield University
ZDI-Central Connecticut State University
ZDI-State University of New York Potsdam
ZDI-State University of New York Binghamton
ZDI-Johns Hopkins University
ZDI-University of Pittsburgh
ZDI-Northeastern University
ZDI-Albion
ZDI-Wagner
ZDI-Michigan State
ZDI-SUNY Albany
ZDI-Temple
ZDI-Hobart & William Smith
ZDI-UMaine (Farmington)
ZDI-UWisconsin (Eau Claire)
ZDI-Acadia

Urban Imitation Disease

WHAT IS U.I.D (UID) which typically infects young males. Those infected with UID are struck with an inexplicable urge to imitate everything they see in rap videos or hear in rap music. One of the earliest symptoms of infection is the narrowing of one musical preference to rap and hip hop alone. In this early stage the brain begins to pluck out phrases that are repeated and incorporate them in to the persons every day life and chances the chemical make up of a persons brain I call this the audible stage, in this stage there speech starts to be unrecognizable to the normal population. Person infected will typically use imaginary words like crunk ,wylinout, ballin and prtizzle . These phrases will often be strung to gather in a sentence like form. For example : that partizzle was crunk we was ballin and wylinout of control .Which loosely translates in English to : The party I went to was great I had a wonderful time I got a little drunk I was the life of the party. In the most advanced audible stage there is no recognizable word from the English language. The next stage is the visual stage which starts out will settle changes in dress such as the way one wears there hat or jeans. Their hat bill may be straight but the hat is most definitely turned to the side or to the back often will price sticker still attached .the jeans are usually worn low or sagged. I have found this is a good way to judge how advanced the visual stage is. For example the lower the pants rest, the more advanced the stage. Note, also in the terminal stage there may be 1 to 3 pairs of shorts exposed above the jeans. Once these signs are evident, a diagnosis can be made.

the paul wall kinda guy. someone that has a nice home in a great neighborhood but claims the ghetto life thats is Urban Imitation Disease.

Initiatory Text Ratio

When a texter sends the first text, usually along the lines of "Hey what's up?? :)", this is known as the initiatory text. Through comparing the average number of initiatory texts sent by two participants to each other, an initiatory text ratio can be determined. The ITR is a clear indicator of who is the more interested of the two. If for every five initiatory texts you send, there is usually one in return, the ITR is 5:1 in the textee's favor, and you're just not in good shape. Ideally a 1:1 ratio is reached, but only in the most compatible of relationships. The ITR is on the same level of dependability as the theory of gravity itself.

"Dude, how are things going with Amanda???"

"Not good, the Initiatory Text Ratio is around 15:1, i might as well give up now,"

"I don't blame ya bro, the ITR never fails."

Invitation Obligation

The social pressure to invite an unwanted person to an event

“Is Tom coming to your party on Saturday night?” / “No way dude, if I invite Tom then I have to invite his annoying girlfriend too... Invitation obligation.”

“Rachel always guilts me with invitation obligation... I always give in and end up inviting her boring friend Laura along too.”
