observation period 

The period of time when you’re casually fucking a guy you used to date, and you’re assessing whether or not he has the emotional capacity to potentially be in a relationship with again, and if you even want to try to be anything other than friends who have great sex rock out and celebrate life a couple times a month. Also, it’s so much fucking fun and you don’t want that to stop or change so it’s an excellent way to maximize the fun, to stretch out the observation period. This amount of time is unspecified. Most likely lasts as long as it takes for one of the parties involved to freak out.
Michael, I didn’t say I wanted you to be my boyfriend?! This is still the observation period, I’m observing you, and you are observing me too, really.

Observational Humor

A skit on the Tom Green Show.

Tom Green observes people on the streets, and yells at them from up close with a megaphone, pointing out what they are doing.

This often startles and/or frightens people.
Tom Green's observational humor:
"You are walking down the street!"
"You are drinking juice!"
"You are wearing a yellow hat!"

observational humor

The ability to laugh rather than weep upon seeing one's accurate reflection.
Paul awoke the morning of his 60th birthday and examined his face closely in the mirror. Laughing wryly at the sight, he vowed never to perform that act again. Observational humor, in this case, only went so far.

initial observation 

An initial observation is the measurement that you take before you start any process that might cause a change. When you compare your subsequent observations with the initial one, you will see whether any change has taken place, and you will be able to measure the change.

observationalist

An observationalist is a person who makes a statement based on real-world assessments (observational comment) about specific people, places, and events happening around them. Observations are unlike racist or stereotype comments that are generalized statements about a group of people.

Antonyms: racism, stereotypes.

Remember kids, it's cool to be an observationalist. However, tossing around stereotypes or racist comments is never cool. Know the difference!
Stereotype: "All Asians are good at math."

An Observationalist says: "Those Asian kids (over there) are human Ti89s. Each one of them scored in the 98% percentile or higher of the math section of the SATs."

Stereotype: "All priests rape little boys."

An Observationalist says: "That priest is a pedophile. I saw him ask an eight year old boy if he could pillage his cornhole with the holy disco stick."
