left bank cowboy

the peculiar yet somewhat predictable transformation certain young American celebrities experience upon going Continental (i.e., living or working in Europe). Akin to drugstore cowboy.
American actress Kristen Stewart has now made not one, but two, yes two, French films. Probably on the advice of her agents and handlers she has subsequently done the following :

1) shaved her head (like Sinead O'Connor);

2) dyed it blonde (like Annie Lennox);

3) and entered what appears to be her first serious lesbian/same sex relationship (like any number of American female expats of the last century).

I suspect before long she will also be sporting a Parisian accent, opening a salon, quoting Baudelaire, Cocteau, and Satre' incessantly, and complaining endlessly about all those bourgeoise, materialistic Americans who care only for money and nothing for art. Like Gwyneth Paltrow and so many others before, Kristen Stewart has become a left bank cowboy.

geek boat

derisive term used to describe any grouping of dweebs, geeks, nerds, et al who are about to collectively engage in an activity that will only bring further embarrassment, humiliation and shame upon all of them. 'Boat' is akin to the Titanic, sailing somewhat naively along, oblivious of the impending disaster about to unfold.
Friend : Hey, wouldja look at all the geeks lined up outside the Palladium for the Taylor Swift concert ?
Me: Good Gawd, don't they know there IS no Taylor Swift concert tonight ? That was just a bunch of wise-asses from school who put up phony posters all over town to see what dips would be dumb enough to show up !
Friend : Hey, you're right, and the door they're lined up at isn't the entrance, either. It's a makeshift corridor to the construction workers porta-john on the other side !! LOL

Me : LOL What a bunch of dopey schmucks !!
Friend : What a geek boat !!

naked makeout lady

Nerd : hey, wanna be my naked makeout lady for the forseeable future ?
Woman : hmmm, that sounds like nerdspeak for something. Since I don't have my 'Nerdspeak To English' dictionary with me, what does it mean ?
Nerd : well, in your language it means 'female fuck buddy'.
Woman : Oh. Well, no thank you.
Nerd : Well, have intercourse in that direction, you birther of canine puppies.
Woman : More nerdspeak ?
Nerd : Yep.
Woman : what could 'have intercourse in that direction, you birther of canine puppies' possibly mean ?
Nerd : it means, 'fuck you, bitch' !

run a clear out

1. an offensive strategy in NBA basketball, whereby (since zone defenses are illegal) four players spread out several feet from the basket, thus taking their defenders with them, while allowing the ball handler to go one-on-one with the remaining defender, either opening up an opportunity to 'take it to the hole' or kicking the ball out to an open man for a potential three pointer.

2. any strategy used by an individual (or individuals) to remove several persons from a given area for the purposes of a one-on-one maneuver or encounter.
Alpha Dog At Club: Man, I'd like to hookup with that hottie across the room, but she's surrounded by four peeps who I know she's not interested in.
Alpha Dog's Wingman : So, why don't you just walk up, shove those fake players aside and show her who's boss ?
Alpha Dog: Naw, she might think I'm an asshole. I'd rather she think I was a gentleman.
Wingman : Okay, then let me recruit four memes from your entourage and we'll run a clear out . Then you can approach her one-on-one.
Alpha Dog: Now you're thinking !

most celebrity athletes, entertainers, personalities, politicians who achieved the bulk of their success the other side of the millennium (i.e., the 20th Century).
Think about it. How many late 20th Century celebrities are still in the public eye today ? Not many, right ? The somebodies of yesterday are the nobodies of today ...

loser's bracket

1. the sub-grouping within a competitive tournament whereby those who suffer their first loss are demoted to a pool of similar types who have suffered a like fate; one more defeat in this category renders the unfortunate complete elimination from the field.
2. a common perception that certain individuals are moving through their respective lives already having suffered some type of major defeat (or many smaller ones), thereby rendering them to a decidedly less than ideal existence.
Look at Joe : he attended all the wrong schools thereby acquiring all the wrong type of friends; this precipitated choosing the wrong type of occupation and marrying the wrong type of girl. Now he's in the wrong type of neighborhood with the wrong type of kids. Joe could be said to be existing in the loser's bracket of life.
