Clap Your Hands Say Yeah

An indie band from Philadelphia and Brooklyn who achieved their fame through the internet rather than through record labels. Their self-titled album has received much critical acclaim, including a score of 90 from Pitchfork Media. With all the attention they have turned down many record deals, though signing to an independent label in the UK. No one can doubt the chemistry the band has from their clangy guitars to thumping drums, but lead vocalist Alec Ounsworth's singing style often either makes you love or hate the band. While many think his singing style is original and goes with the fun loving style of the band(including myself), many hear it as a crackity turn off.

Splash Town Handshake

The act of frolicking around at any waterpark in particular and 'accidentally' manuvering your toe into the crotch of a nearby, and conveniently located fellow park guest. Best performed in a large wavepool or other deeper, agitated water attraction where there is a sizeable group of people in close proximity to one another and limited chance of being immediately discovered as the perpetrator of the act. Usually done in order to satisfy one's urges to make physical contact with a hot, young chick in a way that my wife won't notice.

Billy - "Hey that chick is hot!"

Doug- "Yeah she is, but she's also 12"

Billy - "I don't care, I'm going to give her a Splash Town Handshake"

Doug- "What if your wife notices?"

Billy- "Who?"

universally handsome

1. Being sexually or physically appealing to people no matter your ethnicity or a person's usual general preference.

2. Someone considered good-looking no matter what country they are in.

My friend finally met the Italian that I'd been telling her about. Though our tastes in guys usually differ, she had to agree that he was hot stuff. I thought up the word "universally handsome" to describe our mutual appreciation.
