Celebration Cup

In beer pong, a cup which each team fills 3/4 of the way up, and then proceeds to place anywhere in their own rack. The opponents turn around when the cup is being placed so that they do not know which cup to shoot at. When during the game either team proceeds to hit their opponents' celebration cup, the team whose cup it is gets to celebrate because, as a result, they get to drink extra! A loud celebration ensues, with all four players taking part--two of them because they hit a cup, and two because they get to enjoy more delicious Natty Light. It is also common courtesy to thank the opposing team for hitting your celebration cup.

"Dude look, they just hit the celebration cup!" (screams of joy ensue)

Celebration Parallax

The phenomenon whereby the exact same set of facts is either celebrated or deplored depending solely on the political bias of the observer.

When a liberal writes that increased immigration is good because it leads to a liberal demographic shift, but then writes that conservatives decrying increased immigration are pushing "replacement theory," that's celebration parallax.

Calibrations

Either an activity that must be done constantly, or something you bring up when you want to subtly tell someone to go fuck themselves.

Shepard: "Hey Garrus, got a minute?"
Garrus: "Can it wait for a bit? I'm in the middle of some calibrations."

CALIBARRIO

21st century term used to describe California because of the mass invasion by Mexican illegals.

California was the place to be back in the day, now its full of trash, stolen shopping carts, strollers, and taquerias. It's time to get out of Calibarrio and move to Airzona.
