Desert Dipper

When one dips their ball sack in sand before performing a classic teabag

“Russ was being such a dick last night before passing out, Brian was totally justified giving him a desert dipper from the sand trap on the 16th hole

tax desert

A definite area within a larger city/municipality in which the tax revenue generated is considerably less than the areas around it.
Tax deserts often have a relatively large number of abandoned buildings, the Body Mass Index of the average citizen is markedly higher than average.

A tax desert often occupies the same space as a food desert- (re: Mari Callagher)

The South Loop of Chicago used to be a "tax desert" but was renovated and now serves as a major tourist destination in the city.

ecological food desert

whereas just "food desert" is currently considered (more from public health perspective) as places where the local populations do not have (convenient) access to affordable, healthy food, this more wholistic concept is a less human-centric understanding that implies both, a low, non-proportionate amount of food grown, and dependency on (usually both environmentally unsustainable and imbalanced fossil fuel energies and farm land stewardship) less-/unnatural imports of food from "non-renewable" or less lively (e.g. degraded/depleted top soils and watersheds) source farms

After being affected by the spirit of "deep ecology", I had a fresher awareness of the ironic, or at least unnatural, situation of how the grocery stores, markets, restaurants, etc. made it appear like there's an abundance of food, but our less- or unhealthy human-built environment that had me dependent on unsustainable, imbalanced energies (like fossil fuels and their corresponding implements) actually was an ecological food desert.

Deserter

Someone who abandons others, or something that needs to get done.

You are right about me, I'm a little punk deserter faggot. You know what you're talking about, so what makes you spend so much time in your shell if you are right so much of the time?

Desert

Ok, so, you cite the phrase “Let my people go so that they may serve me in the wilderness.” And say that it’s often misquoted (and that’s because it was in a musical. I want to say Joseph an the amazing technicolor dreamcoat and the commercial for it used to play on TV at night and “LET MY PEOPLE GOOO!” was one of the parts that they highlighted IN that commercial) but then you frame the misquote as hedonic freedom and that leads to the desert and the full quote as your propositional ethic.

Hym “BUT! In the Bible it’s the exact opposite. They are let go to serve God and GO TO THE DESERT ANYWAY. You use this tactic to draw the EXACT OPPOSITE conclusion of the material you’re citing. Regularly. Just like the lobster thing. The study your citing draws the exact opposite conclusion. But it’s marketable. I’m also marketable. But billionaires and sycophants aren’t lining up to throw money at me. Not because I’m not better but because I didn’t use Elon’s strategy of ‘general visibility.’ Why is ‘general visibility more important than competence (something that isn’t important at all)? THE PARETO PRINCIPLE! That states ‘Famous people tend to receive more credit than one famous people who contributed!’ It’s a SHAM! It’s a lie! Your whole propositional ethic is just your own person self aggrandizement campaign! Which is why you project that on to me! You think I’m doing it because that what YOU’RE doing! Ha! Ridiculous! What a ridiculous guy!”

Desert Mouth

1) When one has a severe lack of water

2) When one is beyond the normal limits of being thirsty/horny for a person or a fictional character

Credit to my friend Eternal for the term idea

1) “Man I need a drink, I feel like I have desert mouth...”

2) “Have you heard about Jacob? He’s had desert mouth for that pink-haired girl from that anime lately”
