A hardy shrub with red to blue~purple berries that are Poison; the leaves are too & if eaten, will cause delirium & hallucinations! In the Olden days, women used this to increase the size of the pupils of their eyes~this was seen as a sign of Beauty. Also, long long ago it was used as an anesthetic during surgery.
I have a delightful belladonna/deadly nightshade plant in my flower garden. I adore it!
A shrub with red berries; the leaves & berries, if ingested, cause delirium & hallucinations. It used to be used to dilate women's eyes as they perceived that as beautiful. Before the middle ages, it was used as an anesthetic for surgery. It grows wild too.
When an individual in a group vomits which triggers a domino effect of subsequent individuals vomiting in a chain reaction reminiscent of the water show in front of the Bellagio in Las Vegas.
On my flight from NY to Seattle, the turbulence got the best of a group of grade school students and kicked of a Bellagio.
The language spoken by the lead singer of Muse, Matt Bellamy. It is often unintelligible to those who aren't familiar with his rapid, nonsensical interview responses or songs featuring notes high enough to kill dolphins (as in Micro Cuts). Notable Bellamese speech affectations include the replacement of "r" sounds with "w" sounds (ie. really -> weally), repetition of the phrase "you know", and inability to say any number besides 1984.
Matt Bellamy: Adhasdfvdefjbazzbjhkzsdf zaksjfb you know the book 1984 is weally good sfjbaweif sjfakwfrb akjfn.
Person 1: Do you know what he's saying?
Person 2: No, I don't speak Bellamese.
Ulzzang true definition is "best & "face" = best face in korean. They are basically people with above average looks, sometimes with the use of photoshop and haduri who post their pics online, some becoming internet celebrities.

EBK stands for "Elite Ball Knowledge." 1 In internet slang, "ball knowledge" originally referred to a deep understanding of football/soccer or basketball, but it has evolved into a broader term for having a highly sophisticated, deep, or niche understanding of any specific topic (such as music, movies, or subcultures).
Person A: "That scene was a direct homage to an unreleased 1982 Japanese indie film."
Person B: "Wow, EBK."
Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.
Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.
Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
