medorgnolic 

Electronic Music

An term used to describe music made on a computer with a rhythmic and repetitive style. e.g. Techno, Acid Techno, House etc

It's derived from the word 'pianolic' i.e. music played by a pianola, in a repetitive & automated way.
In the early 90s, Techno and House was played on modern organs rather than a piano. As there is a big difference between House and Techno, an umbrella term was needed.

Fiends should listen to 'Logikal Nonsense' again by Hawtin on Plus8. Enthusiasts should listen to it for the first time. Most civilians should not.

No, no, no, no,no, no, no...... !
(0.55 of 1.11 of Logical Nonsense).

'Modern Organ-Olic' was too cumbersome and was abbreviated to 'Mod Orgn-Olic'.
'ModOrg' replaced 'Pia' in the word 'Pianolic', to form the word 'Modorgnolic'.
It turns out that 'Pianolic' isn't actually a word in the dictionary, but the early 90s in Melbourne were wild and exploratory times, before the internet gift of easy access to information, so it's forgiven that no one bothered to check.
Made good techno sense anyway at the time, a.k.a. logical nonsense.
The word 'Modorgnolic' became 'Medorgnolic' by clipping the 'o' and dropping an 'e'.
Everything in Melbourne in the early 90s had an e in it.

NB: The word 'Kenavinit' defined in Melbourne in later years held true to these principles, even though the quality of ecstasy and MDMA had fallen significantly.

What time is love? 3 a.m. eternal.
This is not what the KLF is all about.
I love the smell of medorgnolic music in the morning, it smells like, victory!

1994: 'What type of tracks are they playing at Global Village?'
A: 'Medorgnolic!'

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
