The Van Burens 

A Gang/Political Party/World Order led by the enigma "JF." JF approves their messages. JF is the being that communicates to their dearly departed idol and savior, Martin Van Buren. He is one of only two presidents to have the same amount of letters in their last name as their presedential number (Van Buren = 8, 8th president). Their opposition is Ronald Reagan, John Quincy Adams, and Andrew Jackson, the other president as stated above. The Van Burens carry around zinc knucks and are capable of unprecedented mass destruction. Their gang sign is holding up their left hand, connecting the pointer finger and thumb, and holding up their right hand normally. They are currently working on a coup d'tat in Zambia and will use this as their fulcrum to conquering Africa. Watch out, they may come to your town. They are headquartered in Rochester, NY and Indiana (India NA!).

Watch out for The Van Burens. I heard they are recruiting.

Plaxico Burress 

A wide receiver for the New York Giants, though I don't know how long he'll be keeping this position. He caught the winning touchdown in Super Bowl XLII against the undefeated* New England Patriots, but then the next season he shot himself in the leg and was charged with illegal possession of a firearm since apparently the gun was not licensed. His injury was not severe, but he's still in big trouble. Also, it's been discovered that he has no auto insurance.
It's too bad Plaxico Burress shot himself in the foot (pun intended). He could have had a great career.

Barrens Chat

1) A infamously vile and crazy place within World of Warcraft, which is the eternal home of Chuck Norris jokes. Commonly caused because of the size of the zone, and the player density of the zone, and also due to the common rumor that the badass players play Horde, leading 12 year olds wanting to be badass, but instead, resulting in this hot mess of immaturity and Chuck Norris jokes.

2) Trade Chat

A term used to describe the colorful conversations that ensue when low - level players quest in a large, relatively boring landscape termed 'The Barrens.' Many players find these interactions quite annoying, however others see them as a way to relieve the boredom of running through and endless, creep - filled desert.
The barrens chat was rather lame last night.

trucker's tan

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
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.
