A fantastic indie pop/electronica band from Belfast made up of two of the coolest guys ever: Shaun Robinson (lead vocals/drums) and Rocky O'Reilly (guitar (left handed, to further add to his awesomeness), synth, and backup vocals). They made their big US breakthrough when touring with They Might Be Giants. They rock hardcore, so check them out.

A village with a very weird name. Most likely a cult but we’ll never know due to the fact residents there partake in the annual Cousin-Dick Sucking Competition that takes place once a year and Up The Ass Day, where you can stick just about anything up there.

Not to be confused with an epic gamer moment.
It is a moment of realisation of how bad of a person you are after killing literally billions of NPCs and/or committing other unbelievable atrocities in videogames.
This expression is actually referencing a famous quote of J.Robert Oppenheimer, one of the father's of US nuclear program. While describing his feelings from witnessing the first explosion of an atomic bomb, he said:
"We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent. I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita. Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says, “Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.” I suppose we all thought that one way or another".
gosh this be giving me goosebumps every f-ing time.
