AMSA Convention

AMSA Convention is the premier event of the Australian Medical Students' Association. It is held annually, rotating around all states of Australia, and takes place from the first Sunday in July for one week.

The day program consists of a world-class panel of speakers, workshops and field trips; boasting Nobel Laureates, Emeritus Professors and outstanding public orators in the lineup.

The night program is centred around a particular theme for each of the seven events. The events are renowned for being some of the most debuached, outrageous and most ridiculous parties in the English-speaking world.
Did you get registration to AMSA Convention this year?

No, because they used some new ballot system.

End of Meaningful Conversation

When your friend IM's you about something random and then never responds to your answer.
friend: hey you back in your dorm room?
you: yeah
no response to this leaves you wondering what the heck the person wanted and was the end of meaningful conversation.

converse

Converse is a brand of basketball shoes. They are canvas shoes with rubber soles. They were made famous by Charles H. Taylor, a basketball player, in 1918. Since then they have become popular with just about everybody at different times. In the '70s and '80s, they were deemed to be the offcial shoe of the National Basketball Association.

Since the '80s, the Converse company went out of business and was purchased by Nike. Nike proceeded to move production of Converse shoes to China in order to reduce production costs.

Today Converses are popular with an entirely new crowd - the 'alternative' or 'artsy' kids who will probably never touch a basketball in their life - in addition to still being popular with the 'jocks' and 'preps.' The artsy kids somehow reason that they deserve Converses more than the preps because Converse shoes have become a symbol of 'individuality' (which is a word that's meaning has become extremely jumbled), when in reality the jocks or preps were the ones who would actually be entitled to the shoes if the system worked that way. This is because of the fact that in 1918, a basketball player popularized these shoes.

In any case, Converse shoes have been around for almost 90 years and are still selling, even though they have hardly changed an inch. Some people claim to have territory over these shoes when, in actuality, they are just canvas and rubber that you stick your smelly feet into.
Jock (to jock friend): Check out my new Converses! Sick, right?
Artsy kid (to artsy friend): Ew. He is wearing Converses. How can he do that? Those are my shoes!
Jock (to jock friend): Dude! Check out this band fag who says these shoes are his!
(jock beats the crap out of said band fag)
Stoner: Whoa, man... they're just shoes...

catalytic converter

A catalytic converter is a small pipe, in which temperatures get so hot, it will help convert the exhaust gas into a more environmentally safe fume and decrease pollution emitted from a vehicles exhaust and reduce the smell of gasoline.
Removing a catalytic converter could make the exhaust 30-70 percent louder than the exhaust with the Catalytic Converter. In some states, running without a catalytic converter could be illegal and the fine could be as much as $2000.
Eliminating the catalytic converter from your system will not affect the overall performance values of the bike.

Conversation Transfer Effect

When two or more people are having a conversation and something is said that when taken out of context makes absolutely no sense, and a seperate person or group hears that particular phrase. This can result in a multitude of reactions from the group that overheard the conversation with the standard "What the hell are you talking about?!" being most common.
Guy 1 talking to his friends: Dude I had the wierdest dream last night, I was naked riding through the supermarket on a unicorn with Justin Bieber.

Guy 2 who overheard them: WTF are you talking about, all I heard was naked with Justin Bieber?!

Guy 1: sorry, it was the conversation transfer effect, I was talking about a dream.
