Spectrum

A cashgrabbing, penny-whoring, satanic reincarnation of Time Warner Cable that gives retarded prices for retarded products for the purpose of trapping poor old people into taking into their crappy deals.

A shittier version of Verizon.

John: Hey I just subscribed to Spectrum today!
Nick: Are you stupid? You’re getting scammed, Verizon is where its at.

political spectrum

A chart used to define your political affiliation. Revolutionary and Liberal are on the left, conservative and reactionary on the right. Left and Right derive themselves from pre-Revolution France, where at royal functions, the king's officals, those who didn't want change, were on the right, while those who pushed for change were on the left. The Political Spectrum is something that must be done away with as soon as possible, because it causes incredible amounts of conflict over differences of opinion. If the spectrum was destroyed, along with the concepts of liberal and conservative, people would be forced to actually listen to the issues and form their own opinions, not just go with their group's stances.

F*ck the Political Spectrum. F*ck it up its stupid ass.

Dr. Poindexter is kind of spectrumish, but he's an awesome dermatologist in spite of his lousy bedside manner.

Spectrasexual

People who identify with this term, are sexually attracted to multiple genders, but not necessarily all genders. They may or may not have a preference, but regardless of that, they partially take gender into account, and partially take personality into account.
