space opera

An increasingly popular genre of Science Fiction. The term is largely self explanatory in that a space opera is a drama that is simply put in the context of science fiction. Although it can be "hard" science fiction, space operas typically focus on the characters to a point where the actual setting (space obviously, but more specifically, a technological future) is largely unimportant.

Have you seen Cowboy Bebop or that new Battlestar Galactica show?

No, I've never been a fan of space operas.

Now witness the firepower of this fully ARMED and OPERATIONAL battle station!

You are about to get destroyed physically, mentally, and spiritaully. Generally if this phrase is bellowed out it means the bellower is about to engage in a mass slaughter with absolutly no care for their own safety. Expect no quarter given. Although a relitivly rare act, certain social pressures, neurological ihibitors, or defeat in a video game can cause this.

Vavey: Owned you again!

Dave: Now witness the firepower of this fully ARMED and OPERATIONAL battle station!

Vavey: ohhhh....crap

*Gore everywhere, house destroyed along with neighboring countries

Operation Dumbo Drop

The process of hovering over a dirty toilet seat to take a crap so you do not get your back end covered in germs.

I had to drop the Cosby kids off at the pool, but some one left their juice on all the toilet seats. Luckily, I remembered a trick my 2nd grade teacher taught me and performed an Operation Dumbo Drop.

Operation Scumbag

A person that attempts to have sex with as many women as possible, while, at the same time, trying to keep it a secret from each woman. In his head O.S thinks that the illusion will last, however, that is not the case. Often most of these women know each other. If your friend is an O.S, best thing to do is let it take its course. Then when the shit hits the fan, kick back, pop open a cold one and enjoy the show.

Bob-"Hey whats up O.S?"
British Simon -" O.S? Operating system?"
Bob-" Nah. Operation scumbag."

operectomy

A surgical procedure where a windshield and a set of windshield wipers are
inserted into an individual's stomach. This occurs when a person's head is so far up his/her ass that he/she cannot see properly.

Although it's a risky procedure, my good friend Marie said an operectomy would remove Jonathan's ignorance on this subject.

smooth operator

Someone who can handle multiple situations in a fashion that can only be described as "Awesome, spectucular, and, above all else, awesometacular".

Usually a smooth operator is someone who tends to be "on top of things", and in is usually in control of any given situation.
If he/she isn't in control of a situation, they usually find a way to gain control of it to make it more awesome for everyone involved.

Smooth Operators are rarely in trouble, and, when they are, they can usually get out of these situations quickly, elegantly and with a zero percent chance of casualties.

Kevin is a smooth operator.

Julie thinks "That Kevin is one smooth operator."

Everyone agrees, and life is awesome.
