Conversion Therapy 

Because nobody else actually gave a definition, opting instead to give their opinions, here's the definition I found on Wikipedia:
"Conversion therapy is the pseudoscientific practice of trying to change an individual's sexual orientation from homosexual or bisexual to heterosexual using psychological or spiritual interventions."
Conversion Therapy is indeed a form of brainwashing, but people should know the full definition, not just that it's bad.

Conversion Van 

A full-size van, usually with a completely re-done interior and some external modifications, all of which are done by a company who buys the van new and then re-sells the vehicle to consumers. These add-ons can include everything from blinds to a tv. They almost always have a fiberglass roof that is taller than stock, to make head room and add room for the tv. Many of these vans come stock with middle row seats that rotate, and a back seat that folds into a bed. There are many other great things about conversion vans too.
My friend has got a Honda Odyssey, which has a V6, a TV, lots of storage, and automatic doors. I have a Chevy G20 conversion van, which has a V8, is rear wheel drive, has a TV, even more storage, tons of leg room, and automatic doors are for sissies.

Pee Calculus

When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing pee calculus.
