Residents 

An avant-garde band that started in the 70s and continues to record and tour today. They keep their identities secret by wearing masks onstage and in all their publicity, and have never released their names to the public. The main elements of the Residents' music are the highly experimental instrumentation and production, distorted vocals, heavy repetition and a favoring of weirdness over displaying any actual musical talent, of which they may very well have none.
"Man, those eyeball masks the Residents wear are hella tight. Do you think they'll tour with Renaldo and the Loaf again soon?"

The Residents 

1. A band you don't know about.

2. They are allegedly from Louisiana where the four, maybe even five at first, allegedly met in the 60's in high school. They decided to go west for San Francisco, but their truck broke down and they ended up in San Mateo.
In 1971, the group sent their album "The Warner Bros. Album" to Harve Halverstadt at Warner Bros. He didn't enjoy it too much and sent it back, but becuase the band did not include a name, he sent it back to "Residents", and they adopted it as their name.
The Residents have been around for a long time and have produced many albums. They are a great band that focus on being artistic and experimenting with new technology.
1. Kid A: Do you know who The Residents are?
Kid B: Aren't they those people with the eyeballs who make shitty music?

2. Kid A: Why don't many people know of The Residents?
Kid B: More than likely because they are different.

The Residents 

The greatest band no one has ever heard.
Four consistent decades of high rated albums and short films really speaks for itself.
Seriously, go listen to The Residents.
Sure, their albums are harder to find than Jimmy Hoffa's first lay, but that's no excuse!

The residents 

The best band you’ve never heard about.

_The Residents_ are an _American_ art collective best known for their avant-garde music and multimedia works. Since their first official release, Meet the Residents, the group has released over sixty albums, numerous _music_ videos and short films, three CD-ROM projects, and ten DVDs. Throughout the group's existence, the individual members have ostensibly attempted to operate under anonymity, preferring instead to have attention focused on their art _output_. Much outside speculation and rumor has focused on this aspect of the group. In public, the group appears silent and costumed, often wearing _eyeball_ helmets, top hats and tails—a long-lasting costume now recognized as its signature iconography. In 2017, Hardy Fox, long known to be associated with the Residents, identified himself as the band's co-founder and primary composer; he died in 2018.
Kid A: dude! Have you listened to _the residents_?
Kid B: nah, is it good?
Kid A: Hell yeah its good!
Kid B: _alright_ i guess I’ll listen

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.
