Fecal-Particulate-Olfactory-Simulation

Fecal Particulate Olfactory Simulation, or FPOS, is the process through which one is able to experience a fart.
I was on an escalator and was downwind of someone letting one rip.. it was the worst FPOS ever... I couldn't escape it.

Cheekbone polishing parties

What most people think Benedict Cumberbatch, Matt Smith and Tom Hiddleston have together, due to their well-defined cheekbones. (NOTE: Another post on Tumblr said that Colin Morgan joins them as a member of the Fellowship of Cheekbones, but that is not the focus of this definition.)

The entire thing began when someone asked Benedict during his Reddit AMA "Do you, Matt Smith and Tom Hiddleston have cheekbone polishing parties?"
Benedict's response was "We like nothing better than buffing our Zygoma. And imagining a horny time traveling long overcoat purple scarf wearing super sleuth nordic legend f**k fantasy. Get to work on that, internet."

This promptly set everyone trying to draw out what they thought the parties looked like and generally the spontaneous combustion of the Internet. Tom Hiddleston's reaction was epic as well, but II'm not going to bore you with it. You can look it up yourself. Ehehehe.
person 1: Damn, those cheekbones look sharper by the day. HIDDLESTON STOP FREAKING RUINING MY LIFE WITH YOUR CHEEKBONES! YOU TOO CUMBERBATCH! SMITH STOP LOOKING SO INNOCENT, YOU'RE GUILTY TOO! (screaming at pictures)

me: ...of course they ruin your life with just their cheekbones, I've experienced it too. Judging by these pictures, they've just had some more cheekbone polishing parties.

me: <wonders if *koffkoff* anything else happened...> <evil grin>

The Megumi Partical

The Megumi Partical is the theory in which a person (usually a male) believes becoming romantically obsessed with another person (usually a female) in an unhealthy manor will heighten his chances with her. In most cases, the female is unaware of the obsession the male has over her. The symptoms of the Megumi Partical usually include but are not limited to the following:
•Loss of sleep over thinking about her
• Writing poems and letters, then not giving them to her
•Stalking her on social media
•Learning everything you possibly can about her
•Etc.
In all recorded cases of The Megumi Partical, the male has been unsuccessful in his attempts to woo the female.
Guy 1: Dude, I can't stop thinking about *insert name here*

Guy 2: Tell her how you feel man.

Guy 1: Nah, I can't, I'll just stalk her on Facebook and write her poems and have pictures of her on my phone.

Guy 2: Dude, this is a serious case of The Megumi Partical. We need to get you help.

nowhere in particular

phrase derived from author James Howard Kunstler's influential work 'The Geography Of Nowhere' which, like similar tomes with a social conscience (e.g., 'Fast Food Nation', 'Bowling Alone', et al), challenged Americans to reassess the plight of their urban/suburban landscapes, especially since the end of World War Two. What Kunstler found was a terrain blighted by shopping and strip malls, fast food restaurants, twelve lane super highways, shoddily constructed business and residential developments or what he referred to as 'cartoon architecture'.
Bill : say Tom, where are you living these days ?
Tom : oh, out on 197th Mile Rd. in Paradise County, just east of the Rolling Meadows gated community, adjacent to a Chuckie Cheese's and Major Magic's Pizza Revue, in between the 467th and 468th exit and on ramps to the eighteen lane Interstate, right behind the Wonderland strip mall, right next to a nature band-aid consisting of wood chips and one-foot tall shrubs.
Bill : Wow. In other words, nowhere in particular.
Tom : That's right ! Ain't this country great !
