order of the arrow

the Order of the Arrow (OA) is the national honor camper society of the Boy Scouts of America. It takes scouts who have achieved certain accomplishments within their troop and molds them into the leaders of tomorrow. It is unique because members are not elected by the members of the organization, but by the non-members in their troops. The OA uses the folklore of native american culture to give scouts and scouters a very unique and memorable experience. The principles of the ceremonies are meant to represent certain qualities within the candidate, All members must pass an ordeal that is designed to help make them more self reliant. The OA IS NOT a secret society. It uses the element of mystery and ceremonial progression to make the experience more meaningful for the candidate. All of its ceremonies are open to the candidates family if they so wish to attend. However it is not recommended for non-members to attend if they will ever have the opportunity to join, so that they will not ruin their experience.

The Order of The Arrow provides leadership training that many large companies would pay thousands of dollars to be able to teach to its employees.

To walk my beat and beat my meat and fuck everything with in 15ft,
And Sir/Ma'am you are too fucking close!

This Definition is circa 1981, Naval Recruit Training Center, San Diego CA.

Order of the Phoenix

A secret order in the Harry Potter universe created by JK Rowling. The Order's goal was to oppose the evil Lord Voldemort and his Death Eaters and eventually bring about their demise. The first order was founded in 1970 by Albus Dumbledore, during the First Wizarding War. Many of the Order's original members died during this time, murdered by either Death Eaters or by Voldemort himself. It was dissolved in 1981 when Voldemort was 'killed'. However, during the Second Wizarding War the Order of the Phoenix was restarted in 1995. During this time it was headed by Albus Dumbledore, Mad-Eye Moody and Kingsley Shacklebolt, respectively. The headquarters of the Order were either Number 12 Grimmauld Place or the Weasley's family home 'the Burrow'. The aim of the Order was to protect the Wizarding and Muggle world from Voldemort and his followers. During the First and Second Wizarding Wars, the Ministry of Magic attempted to dissolve the Order, forcing it's members to go underground. They maintained affiliations with Dumbledore's Army during the Second Wizarding War. In the end, the Order lost many of it's members, including: Albus Dumbledore, Mad-Eye Moody, Nymphadora Tonks, Remus Lupin, Sirius Black, Fred Weasley, Frank and Alice Longbottom and James and Lily Potter (not in that order).

Hogwarts student: I hear that Ministry has attempted to disband the Order of the Phoenix. They claim there's no threat from You-Know-Who.

Friend: What's the Order of the Phoenix?

Hogwarts student: A secret society that no one knows about...well, almost no one.

order off the kids' menu

v. 1. to date a younger, stupider, less mature, less attractive, and/or in any way inferior person, just because they provide cheap, easy, yet only mildly satisfying carnal, intellectual and/or social engagement. 2. To have friendship with a younger, stupider, less mature, less attractive, and/or in any way inferior person because they are willing to submit to you. 3. To do anything not becoming of a person your age in some vanity fueled attempt to regain the days of yore a la John Updike's Rabbit or that thirty year old coke head at the bar.

essentially, to order off the kids' menu means you are the one at the dinner table eating chicken fingers and pbj while everyone else is diggin' into some white asparagus foie gras dumplings with bourbon gastrique. The bar is low and you're applauding yourself for your meagre every day hurdles. You are (were) a communications or journalism major. Your reading threshold is humor (The Onion!) and graphic novels, and the people your age discuss Foucault with such aplomb it makes you cry at night into your girlfriend's soft, shiny, pubescent, strawberry smelling hair. You dropped out of college years ago, listen to emotive yet angry -core suffixed tunes, and ride bikes with a bunch of college students aping The Outsiders. You mosh and you are over 18. You watch cartoons when you aren't high. You put up with slobs as long as they adore you. You are still having one night stands every weekend you get drunk. Everytime you go to a bar you black out and you've been drinking legally for at least 3 years. You work at Borders.
