research

Definition 1:
Excessive and tedious study used so that students with little more than hot air between their ears can keep up with the smarter ones. It's pretty much an excuse to reword someone else's work using a bibliography.

Definition 2:
An uncommon slang term for masturbation. Often said in a "sarcastic" way.

Def 1:
Man, the mental kid has a better grade than me! He must do a lot of research!

Def 2:
Guy 1: Hey man, can I come over after school?
Guy 2: Naw, call me 30 minutes after. My parents aren't home, so I'm gonna do some... research...
Guy 1: Research?
Guy 2: Uhh... yeah!

30 minutes later:

Guy 1: How'd your research go?
Guy 2: It started out slow, but I found a ton of information. It got a bit messy, so I jumped out at the last second and forgot to cite my sources!

Or:

Man, the mental kid has a better grade than me! He must do a lot of research!
