A sub-genre of homosexual pornography, devoted to military fetishism.
Military and para-military scenarios pre-dominate. Often features prominent displays of phallic symbolism and erotic fixation upon in-animate "power" objects, such as weapons, flashlights, uniforms, etc.
Origin: In the late 1970s, a gay pornography magazine named Academi was circulated in the San Francisco Bay Area. The magazine purported to cater to an underground homosexual military lifestyle community.

"I haven't seen anything that Academi, since the whole Jeff Gannon incident..."
"Did you see that mall ninja? Dude was straight out the Academi..."

My opinion one of the best indie rock band.
Also referenced as TAI, they are signed to the label of Fueled By Ramen, members William Beckett (vocals), Adam T 'sisky' Siska (bass) , Andy 'The Butcher' Mrotek (drums) , Mike Cardin (guitar), Michael Guy Chislett (guitar).
The Academy Is.. are close friends with fellow FBR bands Cobra Starship and Fall Out Boy

TAI as some call the band is NOT Indie rock seeing as they have a major contract. Indie bands would be more like Seasons Lost or Ghost of Gloria.
Idiot: OMG THE ACADEMY IS IS SO INDIE!!!
Actual music fan: Shut the f*ck up poser! Learn the difference between indie and mainstream.

A band "promoted" by Fueled By Ramen. So is, Fall Out Boy and Panic! At The Disco. (P!ATD)
They originated from Chicago, as did FOB.

In my opinion, one of the best indie rock bands on the entire planet. Made up of 5 wonderful boys: Mike Carden, Tom Conrad, Andy "the butcher" Mrotek, William Beckett & Adam Siska. If you have never heard them, please, I beg of you, listen. They're truely amazing & talented.
