A Writer

A drink made of 4 shots of espresso and a coffee filling all in a 20 ounce cup. Used primarily by writers and college students to squeeze just a few more precious hours of getting words out on the page.

I need at least 20 more pages done by class tomorrow, I'm going to need a writer or two...

A Writer’s Religious Partiality

A writer’s religious partiality becomes clear when he chooses the names of the characters for most of his stories, novels etc. from his own religion.

A: I have tried to invent a new term called 'a writer’s religious partiality'. When a Muslim writer sits at the desk to write a story, then he thinks about Muslim names for the characters. Similarly, when a Hindu writer decides to write a story, Hindu names appear before his mind; a Christian writer chooses Christian names for his novels, dramas etc. But, sometimes a Muslim, Hindu and Christian writers also choose the characters' names from other religions. However, it happens 'sometimes'. In most of the cases, a writer's religious partiality becomes clear. I must say that this kind of partiality is normal and accepted by everyone. There's nothing wrong in it because a writer’s religious faith, his upbringing, his own community etc. influence him to choose names from his own religion.
B: Yes, your observation is correct.

Well, I'm a writer.

Said ruefully when no one gets the joke.

No one understands that Shakespeare is just Edwardian Cinemax? Well, I'm a writer.

Fate's a waiter

Another phrase that means "Justice has been served." Probably derived from a joke involving the definition of "served" and exactly who the server would be in this case. In any case, Fate seems to serve Justice in this manner.

syn: "Fate's been a waiter"
ant: "Fate's no waiter"

I see that your purse was returned to you, it's obvious that Fate's been a waiter on this one.

fate's a waiter

A phrase spoken when a person receives what was deserved. Justice is the implied party, that placed an order with fate in some cosmic diner, and was subsequently served.

Don't be so shocked my crizzle, you got sent to the crowbar motel for driving that hot land yacht balls out on liquid bread. Fate's a waiter, is all.

Write a Paper

Code word for masturbation for college students. Usually an excuse to stay in your room undisturbed for long periods of time.

I gotta go write a paper, see you in a couple hours.

write a play about it

Comes from the idea that Shakespeare wrote plays whenever he felt like he needed to complain about some aspect of his life.

If someone is complaining, whinging, sulking, bitching or moaning about something, no matter how pathetic or meaningful it is, you can tell them to write a play about it to shut them up.

Sort of means, "i could care less...!"

Jackie: Oh my god! I just broke a nail!
Bec: Nnnyeh, go write a play about it

Tom: Linda just broke up with me! *sob*
Luke: Why don't you write a play about it?

Ally: You forgot my birthday! I feel so hurt and let down.
Harry: Yeah, get out some paper and write a play about it.
