British slang meaning angry, aggressive. Originally used in the streets but now popularized by the masses. The term comes from the legendary interviewer Jeremy Paxman.

Get the pax mug.The best gaming convention/festival in the world.
In 2004 Gabe and Tycho of Penny-Arcade.com wanted to attend a con that had equal parts tabletop gaming, computer gaming, and video gaming--and that wasn't just a big marketing event for some lame corporation. They didn't find any, so they decided to make their own.
Thus was the Penny Arcade Expo (PAX) born. The first show drew over 4,000 gamers from all over the world to bear witness to 48 hours of nonstop gaming, four nerdcore concerts by the likes of Optimus Rhyme and MC Frontalot, the world public playable premier of Halo 2, and the 2-day multigenre $25,000 Omegathon tournament (which culminated in a final match of: Pong).

“I did have to take 3 days off work and spend more money then I usually do, so I have like, 6 bucks in my checking account at the moment… and my next paycheck will be small and mostly go to car insurance... But goddamn it was worth it.”--Forum post
"Did anyone else notice that everyone you passed at PAX looked vaguely familiar? Like we all have a sort
of “geek” look to us and therefore recognize our own kind? It was strange and comforting at the same
time.”--Forum post

Get the PAX mug.Pax means peace in Latin. It is often used as a name. He is the kind of boy that simultaneously breaks one's heart and awakens it. He is full of wrathful reverence that startles one's soul as one ineffectively stands near. He is a conundrum. One who is many things at once without being one thing at all and to simply label him would be an injustice. He is best told about in story form, because descriptive terms merely make him seem even more abstract. However, if one word must be chosen, it is "contrast;" he is a contrast in every way. More grey than any man, yet more black and white than the universe should ever allow. Both good in deed and wicked in heart, he is overcoming his wrongs while he is righting them. However, he stumbles in his same past grievances, and he is calloused when it comes to emotion. He might never let you know he cares. He might never care at all, but he is honest. He is the most honest person you will ever know, and he will tell you things you don't want to hear, but know that you need to hear them. He loves truth, and his love of truth will make him a ready match for the wits of any man. Lastly, never need him; he will never let himself need you in return. While he may love deeper than any other, you will never know, because he can never choose you, and he will die alone.
