Lady Csyde's definitions

inessential

Used of a work of art, a production that adds nothing of interest to the creator's portfolio. Does not necessarily imply that the work is bad per se, though mediocrity at best is often assumed. Often only of interest to fanboys and completists.

U2's most inessential work has got to be Pop.

str8

As applied to a guy, refers to a man in denial about the fact that however much he likes pussy and the female form in general, he also likes a heapin' helping of the man meat from time to time. However, he will swear up and down that he is absolutely not bi in any way, shape or form, even as he goes to suck your dick with the finesse of a $1000/hour call girl. Poor bastard.

Seen on craigslist: I'm str8. You know what that means, right? Means I only sleep with other str8 guys.

politically incorrect

A phrase used by those attempting to pull an ideological snowjob on their audience; implies that the statement is some deep (often offensive) truth that the Establishment is ignoring or obfuscating, when in all likelihood the snowjobber is trying to disguise a wingnut theory as a piece of significant thought.

They say it's politically incorrect to deny evolution; I say it's just incorrect.

cold tea

A popular beverage drunk late at night in Chinatowns across the US and Canada; not to be confused with iced tea. Commonly the tea drunk is of unusual origins, such as St. Louis or Milwaukee, sometimes even Toronto. One peculiarity of such tea is that it often seems to be carbonated; the secret for doing this seems to be widely known, but has never been revealed.

3 AM. Miserable rainy night and the late-night diner is closed for renovations this week. Time to head over to Harrison Ave for some cold tea.

iced tea

A uniquely American drink that apparently tea drinkers outside the US just don't get. Both refreshing and caffeinated, but be careful what you order -- Southerners like it really, really sweet.

Ah, iced tea. My wirewater of choice.

bomber

A 22oz bottle of beer (commonly used by microbreweries) or a 1.5 liter bottle of wine (also known as a magnum).

I drank an entire bomber of something called Steel Rail Extra Pale Ale once. By the end of the meal I was listing heavily to the left and serenading my parents with a very weedy rendition of "American Pie".

magnum

1. A large bottle of cheapish wine, 1.5 liters in capacity. Sometimes also known as a bomber to the less snobbish.
2. A heavy-duty handgun. Strongly associated with Dirty Harry.
3. A large condom manufactured by Trojan. If you can't fit your boy bits in a tp roll, buy these instead.

We bought a magnum of Hardy's Stamp at the store, and after a couple of hours with that she made me get out the Magnums. Hey, what can I say?
