The United States mainland. Term used by American Servicemen in Southeast Asia (especially in the Philippines) to describe how they believe America is thought of by the natives. Usually used in conjunction with marriage.
Possibly also used by the natives themselves. PX stands for Post Exchange which is basically the military department store. It sold goods that the average local store didn't have. Servicemen would bring their native girlfriends or wives shopping on base. As they understood it, America had all of these goods and more. It was their main association with the US.
All these little Fillipina girls want to do is marry a Marine and get him to take her to the Land of the Big PX.
I can't wait to get out of this shithole country and go back to the Land of the Big PX.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
An absolutely foolproof way to keep minors from viewing content deemed "too mature" for them to watch.
