Defensive Dialing

The act of pulling out your cell phone after seeing someone you know but want to avoid conversing with them. The hope is that they see that you are busy on your phone, so they decide they shouldn't approach you. This must be done before the person notices that you in fact, saw them first.

I saw my old neighbor outside while I was checking the mail today. I pulled out my cell phone and started defensive dialing so that I wouldn't have to get stuck talking to him for the next 10 minutes.

thigh dialing

When you inadvertently call someone while your cell phone is in your front pocket. A variation of the popular "butt dial"

I'm sick of this phone....It fits nicely in my front pocket but I keep thigh dialing everyone.

historical dialecticity

The thesis that history is a struggle between people who believe in power and people who don't believe in power.

Historical dialecticity is a logical conclusion of historical materialism: that history is a struggle between agents of heirarchy and equality.

Stolen dialogue

Dialogue that was borrowed until somebody made money off it.

There's a few movies that want the bad lines off their script back when the girl is done trying to get rich off dialogue that came out years ago. She really has people she recruits to intervene in her disputes saying lines to people that could come from Roadhouse or Swat in a real life event. Stolen dialogue is not original or authentic dialogue.

Tohruian Dialectics

Tohruian Dialectics is a form of a dialectic when a person known as Tohru debates on fiction. No matter what circumstance and no matter what argumentation against this dialectic it would never be debunked nor refuted. If the opponent agrees to both premises, thesis's, propositions, or etc, they would always abide by Tohruian Dialectics.

My Premise is that Issei out-haxes, i'll take the negation. Since we both agreed to our premise's we will be under Tohruian Dialectics because I, Tohru is proposing the dialectic towards you and you abide by it since your under the dialectic.
