The Owl Theory

*After the Manatee Effect or the Mermaid Theory*

WILL HELP YOU GET ANYONE

There are 9 rules:

Rule 1 - DO NOT tell anyone who you like, except for your best friend, or someone you can really trust with a secret.

Rule 2 - DO NOT bring up your past. Don't say stuff like you got depressed after you got rejected, and DO NOT give the reason about why you got rejected.

Rule 3 - You absolutely DO NOT want to get friend-zoned, but don't be afraid to friend-zone her or him. You shouldn't be a total nice-guy, but do not go out of control and star acting rude and cocky.

Rule 4 - If she/he goes on any means of public transportation that you also use, DO NOT sit beside her or him for at least a week or until you are comfortable enough. It will get super awkward, super fast.

Rule 5 - You gotta be relaxed and chill. You can't be tensed or nervous. If you are nervous, you tend to not be able to say something, so in other words, you choke. MAN UP.

Rule 6 - Talk with each other. Find something you both have in common and make that into a conversation.

Rule 7 - If you are really desperate, go on Wiki How and find conversation starters.

Rule 8 - If you are not confident enough and need help, find someone who you can trust, someone who will not develop feelings towards your crush, and ask them to be your third wheel.

Rule 9 - This ties in with the "Bro Code" DO NOT fall for one of your friends exes. Don't compete with any of your friends unless you have a way better chance than they do.

A girl who does ballet and only talks about ballet. Her schedule is filled with dance classes which does not allow her to do any other activity.
"Hey, do you know that girl Sally?"

"Yeah, she's kind of annoying. All she ever talks about it ballet."

"Wow, what a Bunhead."

"Hey Sally, you want to hang out this weekend?"
"I can't, I have dance."
"You're such a Bunhead."

"Yeah... I know."

trucker's tan 

A sunburn or suntan focused on the left arm. It is caused by the left side of the body being the only half that gets exposed to sunlight while driving. Presumably, it would be located on the right side of the body in countries where they drive on the left side of the road.
I had a trucker's tan after driving for 10 straight hours on a sunny day.

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.

Pee Calculus

When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing pee calculus.
