alkarim jivani

Alkarim Jivani is the television editor for the London arts and entertainment magazine Time Out.

Born in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, and educated in Tanzania, Kenya, and the United Kingdom, he graduated from the University of Sussex with a degree in philosophy and literature.

In 1997, he published It's not unusual: A History of Lesbian and Gay Britain in the Twentieth Century which dealt with gay and lesbian fashion and slang.

He is an 'out' gay man and is regularly featured on BBC's Newsnight Review. His being comfortable with his own gayness helped a friend of mine come to terms with his own, so Alkarim will always be cool to him.
Who is that swarthy fella with the beads and the bangles? Why, it's none other than Alkarim Jivani. Do you think he would mind if I asked him who had cut his hair? No, not Alkarim, he's a smashing bloke. He won't mind at all.

Alkaline Perfect

The act of getting 0 headshots in a multiplayer match with BR starts. The name was coined after AlkalineProdigy; a Bungie, Halo 3, and all things Xbox, uber-fanboy, went 9-10 during Team BRs on Foundry in Social Team DLC. The fact that he was given a BR, 5 minutes, and a small map, obviously means nothing, because even his oh-so-coveted recon armor could not help him to get even 1 headshot.

It's sad to think anyone could get 0 headshots with BR starts. AlkalineProdigy is the only one who could do this, that is why it is called the Alkaline Perfect.

Alkane

The ultimate word to describe something so stellar, so mind bogglingly awesome, that god himself will have his dick blown off from pure awesomeness if this word is uttered. Often women scream this word on climax which causes their partners to nut.
Guy 1 "This woman in the apartment above mine kept screaming alkane all night long last night!"

Guy 2 "Aw I'm sorry man, did you tell them to quiet down?"

Guy 1 "Why? It was the best night of my life!"
