Reductio ad Obamaum

When a conservative or tea-bagger uses these labels or name calling: Marxist, socialist, communist in a discussion, attempting to discredit or one-up the dialog.

(Note: The mannerism stems from the culture of parroting conservative entertainers: Beck, Hannity, Limbaugh, etc.)
John, "What have conservatives done to create, allow, or support affordable health care for ALL Americans?"

Bubba, "We don't need your socialist marxism!"

John, "Why do you think civil society is socialist?"

Bubba, "Big government = communism"

The mannerism is part of the hatred for Obama, hence the term: "Reductio ad Obamaum"

Bass reduction surgery

A play on words of breast reduction surgery, a term used when you set the E.Q on your ipod (or any music player) to reduced bass. Considered pussyish as bass only supplies a light pulse with the music, most people would prefer bass boost, because the stock ipod headphones sound crap despite that most people have them intend of a proper pair, like Sennheiser or Bose, or anything else. Although bass reduction surgery is acceptable if the user has a very bassy pair of head phones, like skull crushers or beats.
Tom: Ah, shit, the base is hurting my ears, im gonna set the E.Q to bass reduction.

Me: I don't see why you need bass reduction surgery your only using your shitastic stock ipod headphones that came with your ipod, they don't have any bass anyway, pussy.
