Burroughs 

Of beautiful and hearty inter-racial stock, the most well known Burroughs' are from the Philadelphia area. They are known for their unique blend of faiths, occupations, and anger-fuse lengths. Most notable, however, are their various forms of loud, irresistable, contagious laughters.
"We were at the movies and we missed half of it because this chick somewhere up front was ROLLING! So we ALL laughed and couldn't stop!"

"Oh, yeah man, that HAD to be a Burroughs!"

Burroughs 

The result of 5 full-grown men farting in a jar, saving it, then smelling it a year later; The act of farting in a room with a ghost, forcing the ghost to use the "fart energy" to assume a human form; joining the military and setting the record for "the most consecutive years as a Private First-Class." The ability to wear the same clothes until you become one with your wardrobe; The result of performing the "2 girls 1 cup" act with a gang of Hodgies; The ability to smell worst than shit and honestly think its OK; The act of selling your soul to Satan in exchange for "World of Warcraft" gold.

William S. Burroughs 

1. (n) The name for that old, usually trench coated man at a party who has seemingly snuck in off the streets and stands in the background silently the whole time.

2. Original 1950's and 60's "Beat" era/generation writer, William Seward Burroughs is best known for the books Naked Lunch, Junkie, Queer and many others. Along with Allen Ginsberg and Jack Kerouac, Burroughs helped move forward the literary movement of poetry and prose using and inventing techniques such as the Cut-Up and run-on stream of consciousness automatic writing. Burroughs is best known for vivid depictions of drug use, convoluted realities, surgeries, diseases, encyclopedic facts on any topic, sex scenes and shady characters such as the famous Dr. Benway who exist in corrupted and satiric versions of modern life. Burroughs was one of the first writers to report from the underworld of 40's and 50's America and Mexico, writing openly about his homosexuality, addiction to opiates and crime among other observations and experiences.
Randy: "dude, does anyone here know that guy in the corner with the trenchcoat chain smoking? he just appeared all the sudden looking like he's going to open fire at any moment"
Frank: "I don't know man, he's just the William S. Burroughs of the party. Maybe we can score some Benzedrine off him later"

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
