Second Act Library

/sekənd/ /akt/ /ˈlīˌbrerē,ˈlīb(ə)rē/
noun, phrase

1. A term used to define a horror trope -- the period of a horror film (most often occurring in the latter half of the Second Act) where the hero/es research their foe/s in an effort to become more equally matched and equipped to battle them in the Final Act. Coined by screenwriter Kimberley Elizabeth.

eg. ~ Copyright-safe Google searches, Wikipedia scouring, Newspaper clippings, Microfiche scanning, and trips to the - you guessed it - Library.

Pollination (human sex act)

When you masturbate on to a female's belly, and after cumming, she scoops up the semen and inserts it into her womb, thus impregnation.

You're pollinating her, like a flower.

When you grow tired of missionary all the time, you have to freshen things up with bizarre / absurd sexual acts, that somehow turn you on more than normal sex.

Masturbating in front of the female, is like when you fap to hentai / porn, which is part of the appeal.

act like toms

(verb) when someone is super gross rich, but says to people that they are like normal people but actually they always go to concerts, buy very expensive stuff and own a large swimming pool, they also buy stuff that they already have because they're bored, plus they always snapchat what they are doing (it's almost always something cool and fun) or what they are about to buy (it could be a new iPhone or furniture for their bedroom).
Person #1: Hey dude, wanna come with me to buy a new MacBook Air?!

Person #2: Sweetheart, you bought a new laptop yesterday! What's wrong with you?!
Person #1: Hey, you can just refuse, don't get angry!
Person #2: Girl, I don't understand you, you're acting like toms...
-------------------------------------------------
Person #3: Hey sis, do you like this new pair of creepers by Riri?!
Person #4: Damn, these cost like a money-bag!"
Person#3: "Why are you so surprised?! I'm just like you!"
Person #4: "Nope, the price of my shoes never exceeds 35 dollars, yours cost 350 dollars."
(" to act like toms" means that the person is super gross rich but they pretend they're like average people)
