Jason L.'s definitions
A server-level Internet filtering service used by many public schools, which blocks out adult content, email access, personal webmastering accounts, and anything that is construed to be "fun." It's basically "censorship," any way you look at it.
Unfortunately, access to educational materials is blocked, due to technicalities.
For example, one would be hard-pressed to pull up the text of "Romeo and Juliet," because there is a line that says "Sleep dwell upon thine eyes, peace in thy breast!"
Of course, Romeo is referring to the heart, and not the female breast, in this sense; but the filtering program does not understand that.

Eventually, students will be presented with a "Bess Can't Go There" screen, whenever they try to access ANYTHING online.

Get the Bess mug.The result of a man taking a piss.
Derived from "bong water", the water used in a bong (obviously); and "Dog Water", one of the phony advertisements on "The Ren and Stimpy Show."

After a long night of drinking Rolling Rocks and playing video games nonstop, the Angry Nintendo Nerd had to reach for the pause button -- he desperately needed to let off a couple quarts of "dong water"...

Get the dong water mug.An animation company, which began in France, before opening up shop in the USA. At the end of some of their shows, a kid has pronounced it as "dick" before, but now, it is pronounced "deek," for obvious reasons (and the not-so-obvious reason of its French origin.)
Known for cartoons such as "Sonic the Hedgehog," "Inspector Gadget," and "Sabrina: The Animated Series."
Many people did not know this (or just assumed it meant the obvious double entendre`,) but DIC has been confirmed to stand for <b>"Dissemination, Information et Communication."</b>
The company thrives today, and an updated logo which says "The Incredible World of DIC" is their trade dress. Hmm, do I see an innuendo here? ;-)

Get the DIC mug.The "Capacitance Electronic Disc" system, invented by RCA; also known as 'SelectaVision' and 'video records.'
RCA was trying to edge out the pre-existing VHS and LaserDisc formats, but ultimately failed in the long run. The format lasted from 1981 until 1986, and about 1700 titles were released on CED.
Movies came in large plastic caddies, which you inserted, as a whole, into a CED player, which disengaged the disc from the caddy when you pulled it back out (so you wouldn't touch the disc with your bare hands, which could cause disc damage.) A stylus picked up the audio/video data from the disc, which spun at 450 RPM.
To remove the videodisc, you simply push the caddy back into the player, and the disc re-engages itself in the caddy.
Like a CLV laserdisc, CEDs have one hour of content on each side... but you must remove and re-insert the disc upside-down, to continue playing (like with the early laserdisc players.)
If a film ran over two hours by a significant amount of time, it was released on a set of two CEDs. Otherwise, time compression was used to fit the movie onto one disc.
The estimated life of a CED videodisc is 500 playings. Not too bad.

Get the CED mug.1. A combination of the words "jackass" and "asshole". Often used on the radio, because the FCC lets it through. Assumed to have the same impact as "fucktard" or similar words.
2. Jackhole Industries -- the production company of Daniel Kellison, Jimmy Kimmel and Adam Carolla. They produced shows such as "The Man Show" and "Crank Yankers."

Get the jackhole mug.A sizable video game machine, ranging from cocktail-table size (the size of your average coffee table,) to monstrous cockpit-style units.
Owning a few of these bad boys could potentially make you rich -- with having to do little or no actual work. All you do is strategically place them in public locales, and empty out the cash box, repeatedly... Sure, you'll have to pay the business owner a percentage, but you'll still make a shitload of money.

I found me a VERY used arcade machine for only $30 dollars. I just gotta fix it up a little bit, put it in the local beer joint, and I'll have a decent secondary income to go along with my paltry grocery store paycheck...

Get the Arcade Machine mug.1. A strong son-of-a-gun who loads up the shelves with consumer goods, in retail outlets.
2. The name of a long-forgotten 1986 Bally/Sente arcade game, in which you drive the "General Lee" from Florida to California, avoiding cops, and trying not to run out of gas. A very primitive game, by today's standards -- or even the standards of the early 1990s. Not a bad time-killer, though.
