White Person Lottery

White Person Lottery (WPL) is a term used to describe the immense luck a (white) person has when they obtain a large amount of money or property that they never could have earned on their own. In most cases this is through inheritance, but it can also occur through marriage. The term has a very natural sound to it and is used regularly on reddit and other popular internet blogs to describe generally very ungrateful people who are depressed for no obvious reason despite being incredibly lucky to be where they are in life. The natural offshoots of this term are MPL (Mexican Person Lottery), APL (Asian Person Lottery) and BPL (Black Person Lottery).

Guy 1: Why do you think she behaves like that all the time?
Guy 2: Classic example of a White Person Lottery winner. People who have won it have a hard time imagining that others have not won it too.

Guy 1: I feel so lucky to be an American!
Guy 2: You would feel even luckier being a White Person Lottery winner from Iceland with free university and a warm, million dollar house to relax in.

The Scarlet Letter

A horrific torture device devised by Nathaniel Hawthorne in 1850. Since then, English teachers across America have been using it to mentally maim their students, as this book can cause brain anuerisms and seizures within five minutes of reading. The only *human being* that has ever finished the book without damaging himself is Chuck Norris.

In Guantanamo Bay, the interrogators utilize the Scarlet Letter as a highly effective extraction tool.

Rainbow Lottery

A woman gets quadruple-stuffed by four separate creeds: Black, Asian, White, and Mexican. Wait nine months. After the baby pops out, observe its color and distinctive features. Whichever guy is the father is proclaimed the winner and is exempt from alimony. The other three have to chip in.

"Hey, Henry, you've got an Asian friend, right? We need a fourth for the rainbow lottery tonight."

Lutherism

A behavior, event, trait or saying attributed from or contributing to an awkward experience, generally related to circumstances impossible to occur in nature or to recreate.

Mark had a Lutherism occur by typing a 5 page report using words without the letters “R”, “G”, and “F” because those characters stopped working on his keyboard instead of calling IT.

Happy Lucky Lottery

A lottery minigame in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door that turns out to be a scam. Rather than operating off of luck, the system determines which day you win based on the number of days you bought the ticket. To get a shot at jackpot, you have to wait 335 -395 days to take a chance. Sure, you can speed up the process a bit by changing the GameCube's system clock forward, but turning the clock back rewards you a 500 coin penalty.

Kyle: Yo, are you going to play Happy Lucky Lottery?
Chris: No, it's a scam.
