Advancement 

Advancement is a cultural/philosophical condition condition in which a true genius (an "Advanced Individual") creates piece of art that only other Advanced Individuals are capable of appreciating. As a necessary corrolary, the Non-Advanced will perceive the artistric product as bad. That which is Advanced cannot, under any circumstances, be intended as irony. Advancement (and all derviative word forms) must always, always be capitalized. This is highly Advanced English.

Coined by cultural theorist Chuck Klosterman.
Lou Reed; Evan Dando; David Byrne's cover of Whitney Houston's "I Want to Dance With Somebody"; Boy Meets World.

The Key to Advancement is that Advanced artists neither (a) do what is expected of them; or (b) do the opposite of what is expected of them.

Chronic Day Advancement 

Term used when your mind advances what day it thinks it is.
I went to church on Saturday so on Sunday I had chronic day advancement and really convinced myself it was Monday.

Mind Advancement 

Mind Advancement is defined as the collective breakthrough across four levels: Physical, Mental, Emotional and Spiritual. To achieve a breakthrough in each level of Advancement is to attain a deeply meaningful and desired outrageous goal that was previously believed to be unattainable. Combined, one is significantly transformed and propelled towards rapid, exponential, purposeful and conscience-driven success in life. His old mental model is thus rendered obsolete, left behind and he undergoes a personal evolution towards a new and functional version. Consequently, as his emotions, habits and results advance, his lifestyle is completely changed – all by his design.
Jane used to be burnt out, confused and overwhelmed by emotional burdens. Even though she was doing well financially, she felt empty inside. After experiencing Mind Advancement, she healed from within, put her emotional baggage down and gave her identity a complete overhaul. She was reborn into a person that was filled with gratitude, clarity and the confidence to succeed in life.

The word 'flag' as pronounced by people with thick Belfast accents. The term is a perfect encapsulation of the disproportionate and overblown reaction to the removal of the Union Jack (as in 'de fleg') from above City Hall in Belfast. Where previously it had flown for 365 days per year, it is now flown on 17 designated days of the year - in line with many other British cities.

The event caused a portion of the Protestant community ('fleggers') to make international pricks of themselves as they proceeded to wreck the fucking place, claiming it was another erosion of a 'British' identity they perceive to have been under attack since the horrifying spectre of equality reared its head in Northern Ireland.

The word 'fleg' - and indeed 'fleggers' - fittingly describes a section of humanity unconcerned with knowledge, reality or the vagaries of the English language. Like America's tea-baggers they are ruled by instinct, fear and paranoia with a side dish of rampant bigotry and startling ignorance of the world around them.
"Wat de fuck like! The taigs got de fleg took down! Let's wreck de fuckin place! No surrender!"

"De fleg has been took down! Before ye know it there'll be a united Ireland! Attack Short Strand! God Save The Queen!"
