Corinthians 10:4-5 “For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but have divine power to destroy strongholds. We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ.”
Hym "This is literally what's happening to me now. My thoughts are being held captive. It's literally a psychic-cannibal breeding cult. It literally just eats thoughts as needed to survive."

Apologist "No! Actually! WE were the ones against slavery all along! See!? If you just ignore all of the slavery parts and give US credit for the thoughts that said slavery was bad.... WE'RE THE ANTI-SLAVERY GUYS! RIGHT!? That's right isn't it guys!?"

Captive Hoops 

Circular Piercings inserted into piercings/pierced areas. Commonly used in ears, bottom lips, eyebrows, noses, nipples and occasionally the belly button, penis and vagina.

Usually they are a circular piece of metal, with a ball holding the two pieces closed so the piercing won't slip or fall out.

Rarely are they silver, gold or glass.
A : "Do you have anything better to put in my ears? All i have are these boring studs.."
B : "Well I just bought some neon captive hoops the other day"

Captive bolt pistol 

When a man ejaculates rapidly, unexpectedly and with greater-than-average force and velocity into the unwitting face or forehead of his girlfriend / wife / partner, thus leaving them with a stunned expression.

This is inspired by the captive bolt pistol that psychotic killer Anton Chigurh uses in the movie 'No Country for Old Men'. His victims have no idea what's coming and when they do it's too late.

The device itself is usually used to stun cattle or livestock before they are butchered.
"Man, my girl was giving me the best BJ last night and before I knew it, I'd totally fired a captive bolt pistol right in her face... she was pretty stunned!"
