A type of face one makes when angry. Involves the mouth frowning downwards to form an 'n' shape. Various different types e.g human parabola where the body also forms the structure of a parabola at the same time as the mouth.

1.A plane curve formed by the intersection of a right circular cone and a plane parallel to an element of the cone or by the locus of points equidistant from a fixed line and a fixed point not on the line.
2. A guys dick. Term ushually used in math class when working on Parabola's on the graphing calculator and used in funny situations with the math teacher, Mr.Zobel and surounding boys.

"Can i feel your parabola?"
"Man your parabola is huge!"
"Did you see Austin's parabola in math today? It was soooo big!"
"Man Josh went to work on his Parabola today! Did you see him?"

A shape that looks like a U can be in any direction. there are certain terms relating to a parabola for example: latus rectum, directrix, focus, locus, axis of symmetry and roots. Parabolas can be represented algebraically in the form of a quadratic function.
Latus rectum is the line that passes right through the focus horizontally
Axis of symmetry is the line that passes through the vertex vertically
Focus is a point below or above or on the side of the vertex
Directrix is a line that is derived by -a and is on the opposite side of focus
Roots are the points on the x axis that intersect the parabola
Latus rectum is the line that passes right through the focus horizontally

A mathmatical graph originated by the ancient greeks some two thousand years ago and still inflicted upon unsuspecting high school students today. Vastly inferior to the hyperbola, of course.
Math geek: I'm not merely eccentric, I'm a parabola!
Math teacher: now, class, graph this equation on your TI-83 calculators and tell me what kind of parabola it is.
Class: *groans*

The cooliest most awsome graphed equation in math. Everyone knows it has one squared term and a postive one forms a happy face and negitive one forms a sad face.

When a girl's legs are incapable of closing properly. Her knees may touch but her thighs do not, leaving a massive parabola shaped gap under her vagoo. Usually accompanied by expansive hips and little-to-no ass.
- Check out that girl, she's like totally bowlegged or something.
- No man, she's got a parabola tootie!
- What a whore …
