University of York (UK) 

Also known as the "University of Dork". Home to Oxbridge rejects and people who were not popular at school. Famous for having the first pirate ever to be elected as SU president and run for parliament.

Other notable alumni include:

Greg Dyke - former director general of the BBC (got sacked though), now chairman of the FA
Harry Enfield - a silly comedian

The campus architecture can somewhat be described as "abysmal", with a spaceship like structure serving as its centrepiece as well as buildings that could really do with a good touch of paint. There is also an annoying abundance of ducks and geese that will eat anything that is thrown at them.

Colleges include:

Goodricke, most renowned for for its appalling living conditions as well as its strong sense of spirit amongst its "cellmates".

James, college of oxbridge rejects.
Halifax, also known as "Asiafax".
Vanburgh, small and plain.
Alcuin, cozy.

Due to a slip in rankings, York has built an extension to the campus called "Heslington East" to compete with other universities. Whether or not it will affect York's reputation is yet to be seen.

Love it or hate it, York will always be York, warts and all!

EBK stands for "Elite Ball Knowledge." 1 In internet slang, "ball knowledge" originally referred to a deep understanding of football/soccer or basketball, but it has evolved into a broader term for having a highly sophisticated, deep, or niche understanding of any specific topic (such as music, movies, or subcultures).
Person A: "That scene was a direct homage to an unreleased 1982 Japanese indie film."
Person B: "Wow, EBK."

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.
