but that's another story for another time

A cool, fancy way of saying, "I could tell you about this, but I won't because it's not really that related to what I'm telling you about now." Used quite often in the book, "The Neverending Story", and also in the movies based off of it and the cartoon series based off of the movies. It's basically one of those phrases that everyone yearns to find a good opportunity to say, like "I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you", or "I'll be back...WITH WEAPONS!"
Once upon a time there was a thirteen-year-old who was bored so she decided to write a definition of "but that's another story for another time" on urbandictionary.com. After that she went on to do something completely different, with nothing to do in any way, shape, or form with urbandictionary.com...but that's another story for another time.

The set of the most difficult problems in Mathematics, solvable in polynomial time only by a non-deterministic turing machine, but verifiable in polynomial time. In mathematics and computer science is shortened to np. Of course, the editors of UD would rather publish BULLSHIT or several thousand entries for George Bush than something having to do with math. Also, why won't they publish "S4R" is a perfectly acceptable definition.

Rule number 5 + Rule number 10 guys. Seriously. I'm an editor too.
Aaron: Did you know the editors of UD don't actually follow rules 5 and 10?
Mike: Yeah, they turned down my definition for "np", y'know, its short for "Non-deterministic Polynomial time".
James: Yeah, and then the go and publish shit like "S.C.L.I.D". Apparently technical terms for guns are fine, but not in Math.
Aaron: Yeah, seriousy uncouth.
Mike: HOLLA!

Leather Jacket Time

Leather jacket time is the time from October to until it gets hotter then 55 degrees Fahrenheit. during this time all men (ie. non pussies) are encouraged to wear a heavy leather jacket while all women are encouraged to wear light heavy jackets.
The Leather Jacket Time trend was started near the year 2005 by people who believed that the Leather Jacket symbolized coolness. They were probably Fonz and terminator fans; the world will never know.
