Khmer Rouge

The Khmer Rouge killed nearly two million Cambodians from 1975 to 1979, spreading like a virus from the jungles until they controlled the entire country, only to systematically dismantle and destroy it in the name of a Communist agrarian ideal. Today, more than 30 years after Vietnamese soldiers removed the Khmer Rouge from power, the first genocide trials will start — a bittersweet note of progress in an impoverished nation still struggling to rehabilitate its crippled economic and human resources.

The Khmer Rouge took root in Cambodia's northeastern jungles as early as the 1960s, a guerrilla group driven by communist ideals that nipped the periphery of government-controlled areas. The flash point came when Cambodia's leader, Prince Norodom Sihanouk, was deposed in a military coup in 1970 and leaned on the Khmer Rouge for support. The prince's imprimatur lent the movement legitimacy, although while he would nominally serve as head of state, he spent much of the Khmer Rouge's rule under house arrest. As the country descended into civil war, the Khmer Rouge presented themselves as a party for peace and succeeded in mobilizing support in the countryside.

bus roulette

A game in which participants will buy a ticket on a bus, take a sleeping pill, and get off at the next stop after they wake up. A long-distance version is also practiced in which the participants will use a Greyhound bus.

I am bored. Maybe I should play Bus Roulette and see where life takes me.

Another weird novelty of the internet, consisting of randomly chosen webcam(if permitting) chat sessions at www.chatroulette.com This is often extremely deviant, and often consists of bored males, with the odd one flopping their cock out or worse.

A dangerous game of chance in which a student chooses not to do any of his homework, counting on the next day of school being a snow day.

The term comes from Russian Roulette.

Roguetard

A roguetard is a person who plays the "sleeper hit" known as rogue lineage way too much to the point that they are too far gone. They can be commonly found in discord servers talking about how they got wiped by a ganker and posting rogue memes. Their favorite words are slurs and skill issue. They are very hostile and should only be approached with caution as they may wipe you with a inf combo and then say GG EZ.

"Dude look at ryan hes playing that game again is he ok?"

"No man hes a complete roguetard now."

Flushin' Roulette

The dilemma faced when walking into the only available public toilet stall to see that is full of crap and paper and could quickly turn into a messy overflow if flushed.

I ran into the office bathroom, happy to see one of the stalls open, only to be forced into a game of "Flushin' Roulette" because of the clogged mess left behind from the previous guest. I closed my eyes and pushed the handle and was relieved to have "dodged the bullet" when it didn't overflow.
