poststructuralism

A clearer collective term for many of the texts and trends often subsumed under the misleading label postmodernism. Poststructuralism means theories which arise after the structuralist period in continental philosophy, which draw on structuralism but do not accept all of its ideas. Poststructuralists believe in the importance of discourse for understanding social life and question the idea of the self-determining individual, but they do not believe that people's actions can be entirely reduced to an external structure. Often, they study the ways in which structures can be subverted and broken down through their own limits or through ironic reinterpretation or reconfiguration of the structure itself. See power/knowledge, writerly, differance, line of flight.
Foucault, Deleuze and Guattari, Derrida, Lyotard and Baudrillard are the best-known poststructuralists.

nolsie

A member of Labour Students. Sometimes, but not always, a term of abuse. Widely used by student activists.

It came about a while ago, when Labour Students was officially called National Organisation of Labour Students (NOLS) - hence "nolsie". The name has vanished but the nickname hasn't.
The nolsies have all got their tongues up Tony Blair's arse.

Don't vote for him, he's a frigging nolsie.

Me? No, I can't support your campaign, I'm a nolsie for goodness sake.

Glaurung

A major character in Tolkien's book The Silmarillion, Glaurung was the first and one of the greatest of the Uruloki. Although without wings, he could breathe fire and cause hypnosis and was a formidable adversary. He played a crucial role in Nirnaeth Arnoediad in routing the elven armies, and later led orkish forces in attacks in Beleriand.

As the forces of Nargothrond, inspired by Turin, became increasingly assertive, Glaurung launched an attack on the previously hidden city, using a bridge built to enable the city's elves to go to war. He routed and burned the city, slaying many of its defenders, including Gwindor.

He hypnotised Turin, sending him on a wild goose chase to Mithrim, and later Nienor, who developed complete amnesia as a result (hence her marriage to her brother Turin).

Slain by Turin as he came forth against a host from Brethil. Turin attacked his vulnerable underside, mortally wounding the dragon.
He's usually depicted in pictures as a huge green worm-like dragon.

crush

When you see a person and your heart starts to race, you become nervous and if your a shy person you try and avoid them. When your not with them you always think about them, ive had a crush on someone for ages and it drove me crazy, the best thing to do is tell them how you feel and if it ends up they dont feel the same way you can get over it and stop going crazy over them. Whatever you do dont get someone to ask for you, i asked her brother and he lied to me and said she loved me but he lied and when i finally confunted her it broke my heart, yeh thanks for that. Love is a very strong emotion mostly overused and sometimes doesnt apply with crushes when you are only physically attracted to someone and you just think they are hot
example 1:
Person 1: God that new girl in school is fit i got a really big crush on her
Person 2: cool man

example 2
Person 1: i think im inlove with _ _ _ _, shes got such a great personality and shes so good lookin
Person 2: you should ask her out
