A game in which two opposing sides sit on beds facing each other in a bedroom. A small ball is placed in the middle. Once the ball is grasped each team must try to get the ball to hit the wall behind the opposing team while still sitting down. If the ball is knocked back before it hits the ground on that side than no point is awarded. After a team scores, two points are awarded to that team and an extra point called Gambozzle is attempted. The first team to reach 24 wins. The game involves drop shots called Jamikas, opening serves called Splurves, and spikes called Splikers.
The boy yelled, "What happened to your wrist man" as his friend replied. "I hurt it playing Splurve Ball, game is tough"
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.
Term used to describe someone who is a mix of both rural (country) and urban (metropolitan) lifestyles/upbringings. He/she is typically equally comfortable in both settings and is able to seamlessly slip back and forth between the two, appreciating the characteristics of each.
