I Saw U2 Live Twice's definitions
basically, it's a contemptuous term used by critics to denote the same old, same old themes used over and over again, especially in catagories of popular music such as cock rock and cock country. For example: "Ooh baby I just want to make love to you" or descriptions of life on the road, "love 'em and leave 'em" (I can't establish a relationship with you girl, but maybe next year me and the boys will be back here and we can screw again), the inconveinence of getting VD, and all that rigmarol.
I read the CD booklet of a Midnight Oil album and the narrator was amazed that there was an Aussie band that not only truly sounded Australian, even in their accents, but one that had somethings important to say, let alone anything to say period. Something besides the usual touring-and-getting-VD bromides, which he described as "chicks and dicks".

Get the chicks and dicks mug.Quite simply, it's having sexual activity with someone, anyone when you just KNOW Armegeddon is arriving, and I mean really FAST.
1. In the comedy movie "Spies Like Us", 2 stumblebum agents played by Chevy Chase and Dan Ackroyd along with a female agent also hired by the U.S. military (Dan's real-life wife Donna Dixon) tangle with a Soviet Army team at a Soviet ICBM launch team. In the process the nuclear missile gets launched by mistake. Everyone there whether they be from the U.S.A. or the U.S.S.R thinks that this error will spark the nuclear suicide of planet Earth so everyone decides to have apocalypse sex when the end comes. Dan motions for Donna to enter his tent nearby, she smiles and joins him. Chevy Chase gestures for a female Russkie beauty to be his death partner, she joins him. The remaining 2 in the group are both Russian men - one grins like a child. Yeah I know - a dopey old homophobic joke about foreigners - hyuk hyuk. The ICBM malfunctions in the sky anyway.
2. The Tears For Fears song "Famous Last Words" is about a romantic couple being together when nuclear doomsday is imminant. The song doesn't say if the two are having apocalypse sex, however.
3. Apocalypse sex is what happens when two lovers hold on each other tight at the end of the world. On the other hand, on an episode of M*A*S*H*, a TV show set during the Korean War, Dr. Benjamin Franklin "Hawkeye" Pierce and Major "Hot Lips" Hoolahan, who normally can't stand each other, are trapped in a shelter during intense bombing and they have a sort of "apocalypse sex" because they fear they won't survive the night's shelling.

Get the apocalypse sex mug.1. a tune by the Beatles that is notorious for possibly being the first rock'n'roll hit that prominently features a non-Western instrument - in this case the sitar. The lyrics describe the evolution of an extra-marital affair that John had that was now over. Paul sang the words. The title phrase is a play on phonetics - the line "knowing she would" in the lyrics was considered to be too risque for radio so that phrase was replaced by "Norwegian Wood". If you ask me, that sounds even more "risque" or at least funny to me!
2. what you get after a night of laying with a Norwegian woman.

1. in my college class of "Art and Music of the Post-WWII Era" one day our professor played "Norwegian Wood" as an example of the Beatles' contribution to music and culture. She explained the meaning behind the lyrics and then asked us, "Does anybody know why it's called 'Norwegian Wood'?". I think "Norwegian girl, woody...", then I start laughing. She says, "I hear some giggling back there!"
2. Garry laid a young Norwegian waitress he met at a restaurant. The next morning he woke up with Norwegian Wood.

Get the Norwegian Wood mug.it's when someone comes up an idea that any thinking person would've thought of him/her self a long time ago.
In 2000 Bruce graduated from college. He tried to find work in his field but he wasn't lucky. There was NOTHING out there. He went to a temp agency to find some work but there wasn't much of that around either.
Then 9/11 occured. People everywhere got into a witch hunt frenzy. Then came American Idol to distract the populous. The Iraq war reignited passions again. Then it bogged down into an urban guerilla war like in Somalia and it wasn't as much "fun" for some people. Last year was an election year and candidates and the TV boobs FINALLY recognized that the economy is in a sucky-ass shape and has been for a long time. Is that a major duh factor or what? Bruce wondered what took all these people so long to realize what he noticed 8 years before?

Get the Major Duh Factor mug.a classic tavern song that will always turn some heads. Often considered to be the first punk rock song ever, yet it isn't. It's the first hit by the legendary Sex Pistols. This song was intentially provocative and still is to those people who don't know it or don't understand punk.

Get the Anarchy in the U.K. mug.David is playing pocket pool again!

Get the pocket pool mug.we all know what Montezuma's revenge is. Here in the Ohio Valley, Midewst and Great Lakes states the term "Tecumseh's revenge" is more applicable since the great Shawnee chief Tecumseh is an important historical figure around here.
1. At an outdoor amphitheater hosting a Rush concert I drank a cola to beat the humidity. The drink had funny tasting industrial waste - infected ice cubes. The next day I got a bad case of Tecumseh's revenge. I'm glad it didn't happen during the excellent show.
