Volunteers for Urban Dictionary 

These are consistent dumb fucks who have nothing better to do with their time but pick out who does and does not get to publish words and definitions for Urban Dictionary. They are uneducated, ignorant, and loosers who spend their day reading mindless, stupid words and definitions and choose only the most ridiculous and moranic words that they can find and choose to deny those words and definitions that actually make sense and are 'the truth'.
I received an email from the 'Volunteers for Urban Dictionary' who gave me zero reason why my word and definition was denyed., and when they sent me a link to go to a place to explain why, I was diverted to a porn site. WTF? Vulunteers for Urban Dictionary?!

M.E.V.O. (Mahwah Environmental Volunteers Organization) 

The Mahwah Environmental Volunteers Organization (M.E.V.O.) was founded in the summer of 2008 by Eric J. Fuchs-Stengel and Samuel A. Berman. After going on numerous hiking expeditions during the summer, the two friends became motivated to preserve the natural beauty of our environment. And so, M.E.V.O. was born. M.E.V.O. is a volunteer organization; its primary goals being to clean up, preserve, and protect the environment. Of course, we understand that we can't do this alone, so it is also our mission to raise awareness about pollution, and to motivate other groups and individuals to help us in this cause. These goals will be accomplished by organizing a variety of activities for our volunteers, from hike-a-thons and bike-a-thons to clean-ups and recycling drives. M.E.V.O. is also a "friendship" organization which volunteers its time to help out other friend and partner organizations that work to protect and enjoy the environment as much as M.E.V.O.. Because ultimately, saving the environment and planet is going to be a team effort. And it won't be easy, but it will definitely be worth it.
Guy #1: Man i wanna help save the world, but i don't know how (sad)

Guy #1: Yeah!!! thats a GREAT idea (happy)

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.
