Colonial Marine Syndrome [CMS]

A thought process held by many film and game producers and makers, in which they want the new product to be like a prexisting product in the thought that it will make the product sell by principle. This rarely works and almost always kills the product from the start. The term comes from the video game "Aliens: Colonial Marines" in which the producers and makers wanted to make a call of duty game with the alien franchise

J: Hey did you hear about the new monster hunter movie?

L: The, WHAT, Oh man i love that game I wonder what its about
J: The description said it was about a military squad that discover a new world that evil monsters are trying to get to the normal world and take over
L: That honestly just sounds like Pacific rim with a monster hunter coat of paint
J: Oh than its a case of Colonial Marine Syndrome CMS
L: Uh, YEAH

Marin Primary

Marin Primary is the school where the semi smart rich kid with learning issues goes to get a fancy education. Everybody shops at urban outfitters and is a little fruity. Most likely openly has (gasp) ADHD. Pass your Egypt exam and get a new XBox. There is a million Henry’s. Everyone will end up at Ma Branson or most likely MC. Nobody is athletic but they flex their basketball skills on the daily. The teachers will not dress code you however you must stay in with the trends or else somebody will. Be weary of certain humanities teachers. They will skin you alive if you talk back.

Marin primary is the least relevant school in Marin

Let it marinate

When you get a haircut and it doesn’t look very good right away but eventually does 2 weeks later.

Guy: “my barber messed up my hair so bad”
Friend: “don’t worry, let it marinate”

fresh water mariner

An individual with a substantial amount of book knowledge but little to no experience in practical application of that knowledge.

This fresh water mariner may act like he can ride a dirt track, but it's obvious from seeing his lap times he's just watched a lot of YouTube videos.

MARINATE

1. To reflect on a particular topic in your own mind for an extensive period of time. Aka: like a steak marinating

2. To marinate like a steak- which takes a specific amount of time to complete by think about things meticulously

The earth is not flat, so MARINATE on that for a minute.
