When characters in The Walking Dead universe begin to give long-winded nonsensical and unrealistic monologues about why the world is different now and why that's okay. It often times is followed by or preceding some other philosophical babble to try and enhance the "philosophically" written dialogue which is mostly anything but. These are usually written by or match the tone directly of Scott M. Gimple. Avid showruiner of The Walking Dead franchise.
Person 1: "Hey, did you watch the new episode of Fear The Walking Dead last night? Did you hear Morgan's speech?"
Person 2: "No, I'd rather not subject myself to 'Gimple-Speak' which infests both shows now."
1. Refers to Air Canada Boeing 767 C-GAUN (c/n 22520), which on July 23, 1983 ran out of fuel over Northern Ontario, and glided to a landing at an abandoned airfield in Gimli, Manitoba. At the time, this was the first ever dead-stick landing of a jet airliner. The aircraft was subsequently recovered from Gimli and flew for Air Canada for another 25 years before being finally retired in January 2008.
2. Subsequently, the term 'Gimli glider' has become Canadianslang for a particularly glaring screw-up.
1. Hopefully, the Gimli glider will end up in a museum.
2. You just pulled a real Gimli Glider back there.
"My friend is such a Gimply, all he does is browse 4chan all day long"
"George was really boring last night, he just kept telling us memes like a Gimply"
Akin to the simpleton, but much more gimpish! Looks awkward and has a terrible gait, dresses badly but never gives up because of an iron willed determination. Given half a chance, it would inform you of facts for a good hour and a half. Glasses are usual, but thats not a hard and fast rule. (as sometime the specs are in the top pocket of the shirt)
Having the quality of inadequate performance and/or functionality as the result of egregious mismanagement especially that resultant from a design committee or other bureaucratic process.
I had the access to data and tools to peform my job requirements, until someone gimpdified my login, now I can't do anything.
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.
Term used to describe someone who is a mix of both rural (country) and urban (metropolitan) lifestyles/upbringings. He/she is typically equally comfortable in both settings and is able to seamlessly slip back and forth between the two, appreciating the characteristics of each.
That ol' gal of mine drives the 12 lane freeway during the week and a John Deere on the weekends. She likes opra and the Grand Ol' Opry. I love them countrypolitan women.
