Dante's The Inferno

Quite possibly one of the most influential books in an entire era. Dante Aligheri is the author of The Inferno which is an epic story of how Dante crosses the nine circles of hell. The poetic form is what is currently known as a tursa rema. Dante himself was the first writer who entered Europe into the Renaissance because of his reforms in writing and his general genius and influence over an entire continent.
"Through me the way is to the city dolent; Through me the way is to eternal dole; Through me the way among the people lost. Justice incited my sublime Creator; Created me divine Omnipotence, The highest Wisdom and the primal Love. Before me there were no created things, Only Eterne, and I eternal last. All hope abandon, ye who enter in!"
-Inscription of the gates of hell Canto III

dance of the flaming arseholes

An amusing (for the onlookers) waddle between two arbitrary points while bent over with your pants around your ankles and a lit rolled up piece of newspaper wedged up your arse.

Commonly performed by both the military and football clubs, it's an experience that both onlookers and participants will never forget.

Here's how it goes....

You light a rolled up tube of newspaper and stick it between your buttocks while bent over with your pants around your ankles. Then you have to shuffle from the start line to the finish line without dropping the "Torch".

If you drop the torch you're up shit creek and will suffer a penalty ranging from having to start over to getting doused with beer before having to start over again.

Typically it's like a right of baptism that everyone in a team or group will participate in to both gain acceptance and strengthen ties by the age old addage of shared absurdity....

Or was it adversity....

Fucked if I know, pass me another beer and light my torch, will ya?!?
Saw the new 23rd regiment going the "Dance of the Flaming Arseholes" last night at the local.... Some of them were a bit slow, there's a few boys who won't need to wax this week if you get my meaning!!

A gay book where the entire point is that these two fine Mexican lads struggle with identity and the whole point is that they're gay.

dang to the fang

The comment made when someone attractive with a slightly dark mystique makes you want to be in their ether world to take a bite out out of their delicious, shadowy sexiness.
"Dang to THE FANG!...I want a bite of that leather corseted wallflower watching everyone from the corner..."

danger in the meadow is when you get a mad boner! when someone says "danger in the meadow" it is the responsibility of all males around to distract the female that is giving the male danger in the meadow so that the affected male is enabled to adjust himself
