The Paradigm Shift

In a general sense, a change happening on a vast scale. A shift in the big picture, if you will.

Specifically "The Paradigm Shift" refers to a certain oft discussed and theorized shift in social groups concerning several different intersecting social circles. The Paradigm Shift did not happen within the originally proposed timeline of the spring of 2008, but new evidence has come to light suggesting that The Paradigm Shift may still be happening, just on a larger timeline and consisting of not exactly the same changes as earlier expected.

"The Paradigm Shift" may still come to manifest itself in the first quarter of 2009.

paradisical

the state of living in paradise, free from traffic, everyone drinks out of coconuts, and there is Jack Johnson music... EVERYWHERE!!! Hammocks are in abundance and beautiful women flock there like fat people to a sizzlers buffet... also, no homeless people.

Ryan Dean is living so paradisically in Hawaii...

The Point Dexter Paradigm

When the shy Caucasian male that no one talks to turns out to be packing a whole meat sandwich.

Tiffany: Eww, Tommy’s so gross
Emma: You’re right… but what if he’s packing

Tiffany: No way. Just look at him
Emma: But what about the Point Dexter Paradigm?

paradigm

Big word used by prominant Republicans with small minds.

I don't know why I keep saying paradigm but they keep saying it at all the meetings I go to and I thought it sounded good.
