Get the vealy mug.Valyrebonics — linguistic variant of Valyrian spoken by the Black members of the Targaryen family. Black Targaryens had no dragons; because of this, built their own wealth and power base through maritime power.
Their mother tongue was influenced and modified through contact with other cultures through trade. Already a linguistically rich, language, Valyrian acquired additional “flava” through cultural diffusion.
The Valyrebonics idiom “flava” is an example of the acquired richness. Of the language. “Flava” is a metaphorical commemoration of the spice trade facilitated by the Black Targaryens. As spices make foods richer; cultural diffusion makes languages richer.
Beautiful and provocative poetry was written in Valyrebonics and it would become a major cultural influenced for the music, dance, and styles of succeeding centuries. Prophetic books were which foretold the coming of Black King Barrak Hussien; a stylish Black Warrior named Mace; a Brown hero named Morales who had the human proportional strength and agility of a spider; a dusky storyteller who would revolutionize visual storytelling; and a beautiful queen that could only be owned if you could put a ring on her finger — a beautiful image in Valyrebonics, the word for word literal English translation would be “ice her finger”.
These prophecies were all considered very controversial by speakers of “classical” Valyreian.

As Valyrebonics evolved into its on sophisticated and widely spoken language of commerce, it could be more easily spoken by non-Targaryens. And yet, it was difficult for speakers of “Classical Targaryens” to understand because of its use of colorful linguistic imagery that was figurative and not literal; and because of many loan words that entered the language from other cultures.
The classic example sited is the phrase “ice her finger” which in Valyrebonics means: “to offer an expensive jeweled ring;”; and, NOT “a temperature treatment designed to slow the spread of Gray Scale in its early stages” as would be implied by the same phrase in Classical Valyrian.

Get the Valyrebonics mug.Hair style adopted by Black Valyrians after meeting the people of Naath — an Island in the Summer Seas located off the coast of Sothoryos.
Naath and the culture of Sothoryos can be paralleled to the similarities between India to Srī Lanka.
The peaceful and festive Naath saw the ships and the Black crewmen in their harbors and greeted them like kings from their legends by honorifically adorning their hair with oils and shells as a greeting.
The resulting hairstyle was the prototypical Valyrianlocks.
It is said: The Seven Gods created man; but, the Black Valyrians created style. After they left The Summer Isles, the y continued to wear their hair in locks.
The Naath were intrigued by the hair color and length of Valyrian hair — although the texture was the same. Valyrians were intrigued by the skin color they shared with the Naath. It is reasonably believed that there is an untold story about their connection.
In addition to giving the Valyrians honorific hairstyles, the Naath also gave the Black Valyrians both smokable and edible herbs that expanded consciousness and caused visions. They also gave them the lavender dye that became foundational to their flags and royal clothing.
Lavender was a signifier of how far and how widely the Valyrians had traveled and traded as a sea fairing people.

Valyrianlocks are worn to signify royal blood, a connection to the ancestors, and to facilitate communion with higher levels of consciousness. The can be compared to the dreadlocks of our world.

Get the Vely mug.Several tiny cubicles crammed into one office as desks for graduate students. Like calves being fattened for slaughter, graduate students confined to veal crates can experience chronic stress so extreme as to require medication. Veal-crated students frequently drop our of graduate school after paying tuition for several years, thus helping to ensure that the university's coffers are filled while gaining nothing from the graduate experience but horrible memories and a few useless ideas.
Graduate Student: THIS is my office!!!?? I can't believe it; I'm a PhD student and this is supposed to be a great university. These cubicles are only four feet wide. I'll go insane.
Second Graduate Student: Welcome to the veal crates.

Get the Verlyn mug.A veal fattening pen is a work environment where the employee sits within a cube farm. In addition to the inconvenience of having no privacy in the veal-fattening pen, a whole series of specialized organizational products will now require purchase or you'll have no place to put your gear. i.e. T-pins instead of push-pins and so on.

It is time to quit your job when the walls come in for your new veal-fattening pen; for by next week you'll be working in a cube farm.
