A term coined by Douglas Rushkoff in an episode of PBS's "Frontline" entitled "The Merchants of Cool." Mooks are archetypal young males(teens-early 20s) who act like moronic boneheads. They are self centered simpletons who live a drunken frat-boy lifestyle(or are frat-boys). Examples can be found anytime someone watches "Jackass." Rushkoff claimed that the media glorifies this ideal and stifles natural self expression, however, some people might argue teenage boys have always acted like morons(its actually a long-standing stereotype). Nonetheless, standardized conformist dumbass-culture behind a veneer of exhuberance is a scary notion indeed.
Opposite of Mooks are Midriffs; oxymoronic innocent skanks who are modeled after Britney Spears.

I went to Fry's Electronics yesterday and scored a new stereo for my car, a wireless router, a lego set, gummy worms, and a dvd of backdoor cowboys #17.

Get the Fry's Electronicsmug. Acronym for "College Preperatory Mathematics." A non functional method for teaching middle and high school level math.
Instead of actual textbooks, CPM classes use cheap paperbound workbooks that have absolutely nothing useful in them. While real textbooks include instructions, tables, equations, and examples that make it possible to learn by book alone, CPM books usually have none. CPM also places emphasis on (barely) supervised groupwork in the hopes that it helps students visualize mathematical concepts. Actually, all it does is destroy a student's ability to work on his/her own.
Teachers of such classes assume that CPM workbooks actually are textbooks and so don't really bother instructing students.

Get the CPMmug. A long-standing system of internet bulletin-boards divided by topic into "newsgroups". Unlike other forms of online communities, Usenet groups are usually accessed by email client or newsreader program rather than an internet provider. Although internet providers and news servers can block access to potentially illegal newsgroups and assign moderators, the Usenet environment is generally a self-controlling anarchy. Although its dated system of message posting limits file size and prevents the easy transfer of large files such as software and videos, it's an easy way to amass a gargantuan collection of pornographic pictures.
My girlfriend cheated on me, so I posted all her naked pictures on Usenet. You can find her on

Get the Usenetmug. The Boeing B-52 Stratofortress(or BUF -Big Ugly Fucker)is an eight-engined heavy bomber used by the US Air Force. Initially designed in the late 1940s/early 1950s, the B-52 was the mainstay of America's nuclear deterrent bomber force since 1954. Although designed to nuke the crap out of soviets, the BUF has never been actually used in its intended combat role. The B-52 has since proven to be a great conventional bomber, even being used as a close-air-support plane(a role for fighter bombers). Although 50 years old, the BUF is simply the most efficient way to drop a shitload of bombs on someone and is expected to be in service past 2045, thanks to constant upgrades and tough-as-hell engineering. It can carry cruise missiles too.
Interesting trivia for ya: The band The B-52s are not named after the bomber, but rather the hairstyle... which looks like the B-52's nosecone
Pham Tuan, the first pilot to shoot down a stratofortress, later became vietnam's first cosmonaut.
The B-52 can carry around 70,000lbs of bombs. thats right, seventy-fucking-thousand.
The B-52 is so old, that its perfectly possible for a pilot out there to be flying the same BUF that his father and grandfather previously flew.

Get the b-52mug. Want to see something fun? Diss the Ipod in front of an Apple Computers employee. They'll react like you just slapped their mom and tell you(in a whiny butthurt tone) to quit complaining and send your concerns to apple's customer service. Good lord, its just a fucking mp3 player! All electronics have their ups and downs and goddamnit we have a godgiven right to complain about the technical issues of them. I guess if you jab at any apple product's flaws, the brainwashed facade starts to crumble and i-cultists will stop at nothing to keep the delusion alive.
I worked for Bose, and sold iPods. We wanted to put some mp3s on the display model so customers could try it out... and it crashed every PC it was hooked up to. While complaining amongst ourselves, an Apple store worker happened by and took things a bit personal.
