Shining Time Station

A children's TV show that originally premiered on PBS from 1989-1993, with Thomas the Tank Engine stories coupled with segments involving real-life actors. It was actually a very funny and well-done show for its time. Both George Carlin and Ringo Starr were even separately featured on the show as well, each playing train conductors.

As of this entry, reruns of the show can now be seen on the Disney Channel.
Shining Time Station was one of the most unique shows in the 90's, combining model animation with real-life actors. (It's also the only way you can see a family-friendly George Carlin.)

shaming

(v.) the act of bringing embarassment to a drunk individual. The individual is usually sober, but if drunk enough, shaming can occur while the subject is awake. All shamings should be recorded in some form, either through pictures or movies. Shamings usually occur because the individual passed out first or passed out with their shoes on.

Shaming can be a number of things: piling random objects on a person jenga-style, writing on them with permanent ink, shaving or cutting the individual's hair into embarassing styles (ex: a mullet), or any other creative way to bring embarassment upon the intoxicated party without their knowledge.

Sometimes referred to as the individual being "owned".
