Marital Debt: the responsibility a spouse owes to his or her partner to give that person sex upon demand. The marital debt is a right that either partner can claim.

Someone who borrowed heavily during the good times and in a downturn can only pay the interest or less.
Debt Zombies work their entire lives paying debt that will never die. 30-60% of their salary is spent on repayments erasing all disposable income with high-interest credit cards coming to the rescue for living expenses. They spend their waking hours working in multiple low-wage job solely focused on paying the interest on their loans. The debt just never dies.

Bob & Alice bought a 2 bedroomed house in a remote suburb of county Dublin in 2006 for €550,000. Bob worked as an IT lead in Microsoft and Alice was a QA. The house is worth a third of its value today and will not recover for twenty years. Bob is now an office temp replacing laser cartridges and is often chastised for not loading the paper in the tray correctly. Alice doesn't live with Bob anymore. 60% of Bob's rent is paying the interest-only portion of his loan. He's racking up additional credit card loans. He commutes 3.5 hours each day to Dublin city. He will never pay his loan off. He is permanently depressed. Bob is a debt zombie.

Something you accumulate whenever you don't sleep an adequate amount on a given night. In the ghetto they call it "slizzeep to da dizzebt".

Name of an AstroTurf entity created by Berman & Co.. Pretends to be a grass movement; asks for donations. Website basically explains that taxes on the rich are too high and can't be raised (statistics are wrong). Video ads claim that the health care reform bill will increase the deficit (in contradiction to the Congressional Budget Office estimate, that it will reduce the deficit).
"Defeat the Debt" is part of an anti-labor, anti-poor, anti-consumer, anti-U.S. front group that is wholly motivated by money and hatred of the working class.

So now, everywhere you go you see ads for "Defeat the Debt." What's that all about?
Oh, it's basically a bunch of rich folks trying to pull the same bullshit they've used since 1981, destroying education and infrastructure, leaving poor children to rot in homeless shelters, and terrorize workers so they'll tolerate any cruelty the managers want to inflict.

It's a debt you have to someone because they let you smoke a bunch of their weed and now you have to pay them back with your own.
Dave and Carlos are hanging out on a warm summer's night. David turns to Carlos and whispers seductively into Carlos' nervous ear, "May I smoke some of your weed, my good ol' friend". Carlos turning away in anger thought to himself, "Fuck I have a dank debt to him. He let me smoke all of his dad's weed". Carlos turns back to Dave and says reluctantly, "I guess you can have some". With a look of shame, Carlos handed him his dank and a tear almost fell out of his eyes. Almost because Mary Jane dried his eyes out.
