Compromise Vegetarian

Someone who would be vegetarian for ethical reasons, who agrees philosophically with vegans and vegetarians, but who can not restrict their diet in a strict or inflexible way. Rather than eliminating meat and/or animal "products" from their diets, the compromise vegetarian lessens the impact of his or her diet by restricting animal consumption, eating much less meat than typical, scheduling vegan or vegetarian meals whenever possible, but not turning down any food they might need on the appropriate occasion.
"We ran out of money for food this month and got canned chili at the food bank today, so we're just going to have to be compromise vegetarians."
"The dairy industry is destroying the planet's water, but we have WIC and are too poor to turn down free cheese and dairy, I guess that makes us compromise vegetarians."

Compromise Game

Not necessarily a curve game. When someone tries to flirt with you and you turn them down sexually, but you still leave opportunity for friendship. You still give them your number or any social media even though you know their intentions.
Sage: Man, I can't trust my girl when she goes out.

Gary: Why bro?
Sage: My girl don't have a curve game, she got a compromise game.
Gary: Oh hell nah bro. DROP HER ASS!

GOP Compromise

A type of oxymoron.

Ask for more then you target amount of concessions from the opposition party. Then argue down to you what you originally wanted to begin with giving the illusion of compromise.
Billy wanted a cookie so he demand three from his mother. She said no, so he made a GOP Compromise and ask for one cookie. Not wanting to see a melt-down his mom gave him one cookie.

Republican compromise

The act of tricking someone more powerful than you into giving you what you say you want, and then throwing said item on the ground (metaphorically or for real) and spitting in their face.
Thanks, Obama, for giving us some tax cuts and taking out stuff that you wanted... but we're not gonna vote for your stimulus bill anyway. None of us. That's what we call a "Republican compromise". Sucker!

2/7 Compromise

The 2/7 compromise was established in 1818, to allow residents of the state known as Illinois to be considered partial people. The compromise was created after much arguing in meeting with Illinois and Wisconsin residents. (although most of the arguing was between the FIBs). After 14 days of nonstop meetings, the 2/7 compromise was created. Although many Wisconsin residents disagreed with allowing them privileges, the majority of them agreed that they need a couple rights.

The 2/7 compromise includes the following rights to FIBs:
* The right to drive on Wisconsin freeways, but must pay speeding tickets regularly.

* The right to vote in Illinois State elections.
* The right to Kenosha.
* The right to visit Mars Cheese Castle.

Although these rights were established to allow Illinois residents to be considered partial people, it does not cover FIBs from Itasca. Unfortunately they were unable to show at the meeting and thus were not allowed to take part in the compromise.
-Why is that FIB driving on I94
-They won that in the 2/7 Compromise
- Oh yeah that's right.
