sellout

One who sings about being unique, and "not putting on makeup" because "that's not who they want to be" ... and yet while they sing this, they are wearing lipstick, have about 30 bracelets, a necklace, and highlighted hair.

Don't give me wrong... I'm all for this "inner beauty" crap, or decorating your person with makeup and the like... but making it seem like appearance means nothing while you've modified your appearance? C'mon.

See Hope Partlow.
Such a nice voice, too. Shame to waste it on crap she thinks the public wants to hear.

euphemism

A word people use because they like deceiving themselves to believe we live in a Utopia.

Mostly they're used by organizations and "considerate" people who don't want to offend the "situationally disturbed" citizens.

George Carlin, a comedian, did a great schpiel about euphemisms once. (A few of the following examples are in his speech.)

You should read it. It may not "open your eyes," but you'll realize how much we like to disguise our speech and blind ourselves. Disguising a condition with nicer, longer words doesn't change the fact that you still have the condition. Sorry.

(Note: Not all examples {e.g. black/white} are "conditions" or negative at all}

IMO, There's nothing wrong with most of the following conditions; they just warrant a euphemism because society can't accept reality. Many are unavoidable.
I just call 'em like I see em.

Nobody:
is old, they're elderly senior citizens.
is gay, they're homosexual.
is poor, they're in poverty.
is black, they're African American.
is white, they're Caucasian.
is fat, they're obese.
is a slut, they're promiscuous.
is crippled, they're handicapped.
is deaf, they're hearing impaired.
is blind, they're visually impaired.
is retarded, they're mentally challenged.
is short, they're vertically challenged.
is stupid, they're academically challenged.

I could go on.

faith

As defined by dictionary.com:

2.Belief that does not rest on logical proof or material evidence.

"We may define "faith" as the firm belief in something for which there is no evidence. Where there is evidence, no one speaks of "faith." We do not speak of faith that two and two are four or that the earth is round. We only speak of faith when we wish to substitute emotion for evidence. The substitution of emotion for evidence is apt to lead to strife, since different groups, substitute different emotions."
— Bertrand Russell (1872-1970)

nap time

In kindergarten, a relaxation period you can't truly appreciate until years later, when you desperately wish there was said period of nap time in your schedule.

Kindergarteners: Awww. it's nap time again! I HATE nap time!

High schoolers: More fucking homework? Whatever happened to nap time?
