A brilliant French poet born in 1854 who wrote his best known works in his late teens before giving up writing at the age of 21, due to the end of a love affair with poet Paul Verlain. Rimbaud died in 1891 at the age of 37, soon after the amputation of his right leg. He is best know for his poem The Drunken Boat, written at the age of 17.
"Idle youth, enslaved to everything; by being too sensitive I have wasted my life."
Arthur Rimbaud
Any European male, particularly of French decent, who, all while sporting some awful fashion of his homeland, pretends to be your friend at a bar or disco, gleans drinks from you, and cock blocks your cute new european female friends in their own language so you can't retaliate.
Those girls were going to come with us until Rimbaud here showed up.
That guy over there we thought was going to sell us hash is actually a total Rimbaud.

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.
Term used to describe someone who is a mix of both rural (country) and urban (metropolitan) lifestyles/upbringings. He/she is typically equally comfortable in both settings and is able to seamlessly slip back and forth between the two, appreciating the characteristics of each.
