The second-largest Christian university in the U.S. Mostly made up of flannel wearing, long boarding, indie music listening, Africa loving, TOMS wearing or barefoot hipsters. There are twice as many girls and they are all trying to get their ring by spring.

Marvel Cinematic Universe

The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is an American media franchise and shared fictional universe that is centered on a series of superhero films, independently produced by Marvel Studios and based on characters that appear in publications by Marvel Comics. The franchise has expanded to include comic books, short films, and a television series. The shared universe, much like the original Marvel Universe in comic books, was established by crossing over common plot elements, settings, cast, and characters. Clark Gregg has appeared the most in the franchise, portraying Phil Coulson, an original character to the MCU.

The first film released in the MCU was Iron Man (2008), which began the first phase of films, culminating in Marvel's The Avengers (2012). Phase Two began with Iron Man 3 (2013), and is expected to conclude with Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015). Marvel is also preparing Phase Three, beginning with the release of Ant-Man (2015). The universe began to expand with the release of the first official tie-in comics in 2010, and saw further expansion with the Marvel One-Shots direct-to-video short films in 2011 and the TV series Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. in the 2013–14 season. Marvel has multiple films and television projects in various stages of development.

The franchise as a whole ranks as the second highest-grossing film franchise of all time and has inspired other film studios with comic book character film rights to attempt to create similar shared universes.

The following film scene, from Iron Man (2008), is an example of the Marvel Cinematic Universe in action:

after end credits
Tony Stark: arriving home Evening, JARVIS!
Jarvis: voice distorted Welcome home, sir...
Stark stops as he sees a figure in his living room
Nick Fury: "I am Iron Man". You think you're the only superhero in the world? Mr. Stark, you've become part of a bigger universe. You just don't know it yet.
Tony Stark: Who the hell are you?
Nick Fury: Nick Fury. Director of SHIELD.
Tony Stark: Ah.
Nick Fury: I'm here to talk to you about the Avenger Initiative.

Steven Universe

A show on Cartoon Network produced by Rebecca Sugar, the first female producer in CN history. It's about a boy named Steven who's twelve-ish and lives with three deities called the Crystal Gems, aptly named Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl. He himself is a Crystal Gem due to his mother Rose Quartz sacrificing her physical form to birth him. He also has a dad who lives in a van and runs a car wash. He learns how to use his powers by going with the Gems whenever they need to save the Earth from destruction. Garnet is the serious one, Amethyst is the wild one, and Pearl is the responsible one. Despite their differences, they all love Steven the same and treat him like their son. This show is beautiful and amazing and should never be compared to the likes of Uncle Grandpa and Teen Titans Go. It has a real plot and the characters are evolving more and more. It doesn't have the stupid comedy style of Adventure Time (making up words and using nonsensical words as slang); what makes this show special is that it can be funny without "trying" to be funny. Easily CN's best show.

Steven Universe is the only thing that keeps me on Cartoon Network these days.

Uniceps

The muscle worked when a man performs sexual activities. Also known as a penis.

So I was going to go to the gym and blast my biceps and triceps, but then your mom came over so I stayed home and worked my uniceps.

I Am Going To Kill The President Of The United States Of America

A punk/rock/alternative metal song by Leathermouth (Stylised as LeATHERMØUTH) which was banned from being performed by the FBI. The song threatened the US President and was banned for violating the law against that specific act. The band still performed the song at the 2013 Skate and Surf fest, where Frank Iero encouraged the audience to sing the correct lyrics which weren't forcibly changed by the FBI. Frank Iero is still on the FBI watchlist, and is therefore unable to safely voice his opinions about BLM and ACAB, although he would most certainly be all for the two (as any decent human being should be).

Person 1: What are you listening to?
Person 2: It's "I Am Going To Kill The President Of The United States Of America" by Leathermouth
Person 1: Um, ok then, I guess I'll avoid you from now on, as I worship Trump and the US flag on an unhealthy level

unified field theory

1) an as-yet-undiscovered theory unifying many scientific field theories into one understanding of how the universe operates

2) something unattainable, much as finding an actual unified field theory has baffled scientists for decades

Einstein spent the last two decades of his life trying to develop a unified field theory.
-------
Person 1: John keeps asking Sarah out, but she's not biting.
Person B: She's his unified field theory. Ain't gonna happen.

unix

UNIX rose from the ashes of a multi-organizational effort in the early 1960s to develop a dependable timesharing operating system. After three decades of use, the UNIX* computer operating system is still regarded as one of the most powerful, versatile, and flexible operating system in the computer world. Its popularity is due to many factors, including its ability to run a wide variety of machines, from micros to supercomputers, and its portability, all of which led to its adoption by many manufacturers. The system also fostered a distinctive approach to software design, solving a problem by interconnecting simpler tools, rather than creating large monolithic application programs. Its development and evolution led to a new philosophy of computing, and it has been a never-ending source of both challenges and joy to programmers around the world.

"UNIX is basically a simple operating system, but you have to be a genius to understand the simplicity." - Dennis Ritchie
