grab capitalism by the balls

N.B: this expression is supposed to be used mainly by WASPs when talking to other WASPs, but this is not mandatory; non-WASPs can, but again this is not mandatory, use other perfectly correct English translations of the same Latin phrase, such a 'grab life by the horns', among others.

(as a pun variation on the Ford F-150 commercial line' grab life by the horns'), this is one of the many possible English translations of the Latin phrase carpe diem.
as to who may have first used the expression grab capitalism by the balls to translate the Latin phrase carpe diem, IMHO as a history major, I would probably have to say it would have been the 'founders' of modern Western WASP capitalism, Thomas Hobbes and John Locke, but i doubt it they would have used the exact same words.

a capelletronica

A style of music in which an unaccompanied vocal performer attempts to imitate the sound of a synthesizer, drum machine, sequencer, or other electronic instrument. This form is most frequently practiced by people attempting to identify or discuss a song rather than performed by musicians.
Example of a practical a capelletronica performance:

Lars: "I was listening to this M83 track yesterday and when it was all like 'duh-nah-nuh-NUH,' I was all like 'wow.'"
Klaus: "Wow, what track was that?"
Lars: "I don't remember, but maybe it was more like 'bap-ba-reee-BOP!'"
Klaus: "Oh, yeah. Midnight City."

a cappella group

A group of bros that like to sing together and perform music a cappella, sometimes including dancing; "Pepperdine Pickups". Synonymous with all that is good in the world.
I can't wait for the next Pickups concert, bro- I love a great "a cappella group"!

When will the Pickups finally release an album? I've been waiting way too long for a new "a cappella group" this good.
