The Dead Tree

A form of dance used to show that you and/or your friends are having more than just a good time. To perform the dance, all one needs to do is simply put their arms infront of them (kind of like a zombie) and put your head down. Then kind of bob up and down and there you have it. Simple, yet amazing.

Example One:

Joe: Look at Ford on the stage! ...What is he doing?
Peter: Why, that's The Dead Tree! Ford must be having a great time.

Example Two:

Jimbo: Dude, I love this song!
Wallace: DO THE DEAD TREE!!!

dead tree

A hard copy of a book. That is, a physical series of papers, composed primarily of non-living organic matter originating from trees, that are bound together into a single volume.

Carrying all these dead trees around campus is really hurting my back.

dead tree

Pejorative for paper, books, and other hard copies that required killing of trees in order to produce them.

Often used when one prefers an electronic version or submission of a product otherwise seen on paper.

"Hello, Clive. Do you accept online dropbox submissions of our homework, or are we compelled to take from the environment by printing out and submitting dead trees to your desk every Thursday?"
