Cantonese

Cantonese is one of the languages spoken in China. It is not a dialect of the invented "Chinese language". It is a language itself, such as Mandarin. The only difference is that Mandarin is the official one, and Cantonese is not.

Luca: Hi, Zeke! what've you been up to?
Ezekiel: Oh, I've been studying a lot for my exam tomorrow
Luca: exam of what?
Ezekiel: Oops, I forgot to tell you that I took up Cantonese, which is a language spoken in China. It is not the official one, though.

Cantoning

To utterly and totally destroy the punchline of a joke so as to make it completely devoid of any sort of humerous value. Often, the act of CantonING (the verb form) is funny, because the person who catoned the joke often is not aware they have done so.

This term comes from the town of Canton in Central Illinois where people have a tendancy, due to life in such a provincial area, to miss high-brow humor and explain simple jokes with what they see as...jokes.

"He totally Cantoned that joke."

Example of Cantoning:
person "A": "This room smells like 15 kinds of ass."
person "B": "Yeah, almost like 20 kinds of ass!"

Example 2:

Person "A": "What's green and flies?"
Person "B": "Superpickle!"
*laughter ensues*
Canton person: "Yeah, hahaha, or super green bell pepper."
*everyone pauses and stares, looking awkwardly at one another*
Canton person: "Sorry, I work at Hy-Vee."

Capo Valley High School

A semi large school mostly filled with "fresh" kids "hooking up" at parties thrown every night in traditional million dollar Mission Viejo homes that arn't ocupied by the overly botox injected/ conservative christian parents. A school known for a sucky football team who thinks that they're the shit. The theme song for the school is Black and Yellow, by Wiz Califia. Other than the sterotypes, Capo is an okay school with rudimentary drama that occurs almost everyday.

LIKE OMG, I went to that crazy Capo Valley High School party last weekend and my top fell off in the pool and I got so drunk that when I walked home, I couldn't remember the password into my gated community

Capo

Literal translation into the American Language is "Captain". People have used and continue to use this term to characterize a Mafia family member to signify their relevance and importance to their family. A captain "orders" soldiers to do certain tasks needed. Capos get their orders from underbosses, who get them from the family Consigliere, who gets his from the boss.

"Ohhh Paulie, you hear that Giovanni became a Capo!?"

cantor

To leverage the suffering of innocent people for an unreasonable request that would otherwise be unmet. To bargain in bad faith during a time of crisis.

Do you think that our roommate john will help fix the roof this weekend?

He's cantoring for us to fix his car even though the roof will leak without his help. What a jerk.

I know you broke your arm, but I still won't drive you to the hospital for anything less than $10,000.

Don't cantor with me you vile cretin. I need a doctor!
