1. A great band led by Isaac Brock. Brock also did Ugly Cassanova. Though they have many many great songs, some dumbass people have described them as emo - which is COMPLETELY false and retarded. I am afraid, too, that they will be considered a one-hit-wonder in the future because their only hit has so far been Float On.
Hey, have you heard of Modest Mouse?
Yeah, they did Float On, right?
You go to hell. *puches buddy in face, then groin*

A modest proposal: our new school dress policy should require all students to go entirely without clothes or jewelry, to reduce rampant comsumerism and objectionable messages on T-Shirts.

A term coined by the Australian tiktoker, @sarahbada_, to describe fashion that can include tops that cover the breast to mid stomach and bottoms that can go up to just above the knee or to mid thigh. However these requirements are loosely used as comprises are made often, eg. a crop top and show more stomach is the bottoms are high waisted or a dress can be backless if the entire front is covered.
Talia: Wow, I think this top would look nice on you! Do you think it fits your style?
Sarah: Yes! It is perfectly moderately modest!
Sarah: Yes! It is perfectly moderately modest!

A Modest Proposal is when somebody suggests that eating babies might not be such a bad idea. This is taken from the satirical book of the same name written by Jonathan Swift in 1729. He frankly suggested that poor people ought to sell their children as food to the upper class in order to stimulate the economy and bring Ireland out of a sort of depression. Here's an excerpt: "A young healthy child well nursed, is, at a year old, a most delicious nourishing and wholesome food, whether stewed, roasted, baked, or boiled; and I make no doubt that it will equally serve in a fricassee, or a ragoust."
Jane- "That infant child looks delicious. I think we should eat him."
John- "That sounds like a modest proposal to me."
