Genetic Engineering

Often misunderstood as a bad thing because of bad coverage in the press, it is in fact very useful. To engineer something you need to map an organism's DNA and then discover which genes have which effect. Then map another organism's DNA and implant those genes where you want the desired effect. It can be performed while a creature or plant is in it's embrionic stage, if done after there would be far too many DNA strands to alter. It could be used to create plants that would grow all year round in any county such as deserts without rain or even in antarctica and if there is water there, thoretically Mars.

"Genetic Engineering is a bad thing. I don't know what I'm talking about. I am an idiot."

English Way

Polite with undertones of sarcasm. Dry and pragmatic approach to life. Plausible deniability. No crying at the bar unless you're a cowboy. Willing to kill to defend the honour of the football club. A way that does not work for Carlos. To kick a person while they are down.Ddestroying a culture with drugs and alcohol. Druidism and paganism. Using connections to get ahead or to get head. If you don't get caught , it isn't a crime, but if you get do get caught and executed, it is. To uphold appearances. Calling the auto club is the English Way.

Carlos, telling her the truth on the first date is not the English Way.

Calos hugging other men in public is not the English Way.

Telling your date her ugly kids are cute when she shows you their pictures is the English Way.

When you would rather fuck your peruvian friend over than spend the lousy $38 for a cab ride

-paying for a good spanking is the English Way

-Fred paid a little extra for the English Way while in Amsterdam

-Wow, Rob sure gave those Czechoslavian football fans a taste of The English Way

hey, they sure gave those indians a taste of the English Way

Dawn and her friends celebrate Yule in the English Way.

Isaac used the English Way to get into Law School.

the queen held in her gaseous excretion until she spontaneously combusted into wild flames thus demonstrating the English Way

-Abe heard the gun cocking but he was too embarrassed to turn around- that is the English Way.

-Asking your friend to "get physical" is not the English Way- it is the Peruvian Way.

English Dub

For some reason people still like to shit on english dubs without giving them a fair chance. Dubs in recent years have only continued to grow and improve. Besides, some people need dubs because they may have a disability or cannot see well. That doesn’t make them retarted. Sub elitists need to open their minds a little.

Guy 1: Hey the new anime has a pretty good English dub.
Guy 2: I disagree, but if it makes you happy, then good for you.

Killswitch Engage

Truly one of the greatest metal bands of our time. Far better thany any of this nu-metal crap, they combine heavy riffs and bellowings with a truly beautiful chorus that culminates in tunes that define true Goths with posers.
Their best songs are Fixation on the Darkness and When Darkness Falls.

Killswitch Engage had an excellent track, When Darkness Falls, on the Freddy vs. Jason soundtrack.

Engrish

English phrases and words that have become mistranslated from Japanese for varying reasons - usually due to Japanese marketing types not *quite* understanding how their language comes out when translated into English.

Found on an engrish t-shirt: "What kind of world is it today? It's kind of crap!"

McDonald's English

When an immigrant/foreign fast food worker does not know any English words except for the items on the menu and other common fast food expressions, he/she is said to speak "McDonald's English".

Example of McDonald's English:

I asked Miguel to say something to me in English. He said, "Welcome to McDonald's, may I take your order?"
