koan

a parable combined with a riddle, most commonly associated with the teaching of Zen buddhism. A koan confronts the student with a seemingly impenetrable question which is only resolved when through acheiving a deeper understanding of the philosophical point being taught.

One of the most famous koans is "What is the sound of one hand clapping?"

pro wrestling

a bizarre form of entertainment product where 'roid monsters and bull queers pose, posture and shout emptyheaded inanities, and once in a while pretend to deliver savage acrobatic beatings to eachother. The beatings are in fact a series of highly stylized stage-fighting stunts.

Fantastic Four

a group of superheroes whose adventures are chronicled in Marvel Comics. Somewhat cheesy, but considered innovative at one time.

They are:

-Mr. Fantasic (alias genius inventor Reed Richards) has a rubbery stretchable body

-Invisible Woman (alias Susan Storm) is able to become invisible and project invisible force fields

-The Thing (alias test pilot, and one of life's greater losers, Ben Grimm)has incredible strength and a hard rocky protective surface all over his body

-The Human Torch (alias Johnny Storm) able to activate a sheath of flames around his body, allowing flight and various heat powers

Fanboy: Galactus is the Fantastic Four's worst enemy.
Fangirl: Pffft! No way, it's Doctor Doom, dude.
