charleston

A gorgeous, old city in southern South Carolina. Not to be mixed up with North Charleston.

I went to Charleston and fell in love.

Charlie Horse

A sudden, abrupt, or spontaneous contraction of a muscle causing extreme pain persisting for a duration ranging from seconds to minutes resulting in residual discomfort and soreness in that muscle.

In the middle of the night I stretched my leg and got a Charlie Horse in my calf.

Charles Darwin

An English Naturalist who was the author of “Origin of Species” as well as several other books. Charles Darwin revolutionized biology with the scientific theory of evolution. Evolution is Descent with modification. Change in the genetic composition of a population during successive generations, as a result of natural selection acting on the genetic variation among individuals, and resulting in the development of new species. This is a scientific fact and the theory of evolution has never been disproved much as some would like to see that happen.

For some reason this inspires great hostility among people who have obviously never read or done research on evolution. (As evidenced by the questions about why are there still apes. Answer: Evolution isn’t a ladder, it more like a tree that has many branches. Humans didn’t evolve from modern day apes such as chimpanzees… humans and chimps have a common ancestor. The descendents of that common ancestor split off into different species over millions of years. )

Charles Darwin had ten children, three of whom died early. Many of his surviving children and their grandchildren would later achieve notability themselves.

Charlatan

A very convincing liar. A scam artist pretending to be interested in your well-being or wants you to be interested in someone else's well-being in order to trick you into handing over your money. A person who manipulates your vulerabilities and appeals to your emotions with a touching story or puppy-dog face before asking for a 'financial' gift.

Televangelists such as Benny Hinn are shameless charlatan.

Charlie (gay)

The most amazing guy in the world. He knows how to make a guy feel good about himself, and would do anything he could to make him happy. He would never try to hurt a guy, or anyone for that matter. He is sweet, sensitive, caring, outgoing, courageous, funny, sexy, gorgeous, everything that a guy would want him to be. He is an extremely sexy man, with a hot ass body. He knows the right things to say to a guy whenever she is feeling sad, and he will stick with him no matter what. He fights for the people he cares about, and he doesn't back down. He is the sweetest guy you will EVER meet in your life.
If straight, see: Charlie

Guy: "Who's that?"
Me: "My boyfriend, Charlie (gay) ! :)"

They're after me lucky charms!

A quote used by a small leprechaun in a cereal commercial.

I gave a midgit $5 to say "They're after me lucky charms!"
