DISGRUNTLED LOS ANGELES PSA: POTUS ALERT
thedisgruntledgradstudent:
The president is going to be back jamming up the entire Westside on Wednesday, 2/15. Please plan accordingly.
Reblogging as a reminder for the LA crowd that this is today, and that unless you’ve got absolutely no other choice but to be in the vicinity of West LA/Westwood/Brentwood/West Beverly Hills and Bel Air, between 2pm and whenever it is tomorrow that the president is leaving, STAY THE FUCK AWAY or you will regret it.
To nerdsplain [verb]
Origin: Love-and-Radiation.
Definition: The act of a member of a given fandom correcting someone who is not as well-versed on some particular point, typically a name or detail which may not be common knowledge for those outside the fandom. Typically described as compulsive. [Derived from the ‘splain super-group]
Example: “Look, I know you think Green Lantern’s lame because his power ring doesn’t work on the colour yellow, but they got rid of that weakness a while ago.”
I’m new to critical theory [Clause]
Resting Bitchface [Noun]
Origin: Ms. Avigon.
Definition: A default facial expression which is not pulsating with delight and ecstatic bliss at all times, which often offends people. Typically associated with the phrase, “I’m not mad, this is just what my face looks like,” and is often linked to people on the street (ie, harassing dickheads and people who think they know your life) telling you to smile more, you should by happy, why aren’t you happy, hey baby…
Example: “Look, I’m sorry your yelling nice tits at me doesn’t immediately make me break into orgasmic laughter and wonderment, but (1) I guess I just have a resting bitchface and (2) you need to go die in a fire now.”

n. the satisfaction of lists, a series of bullet points being fired into the air as if to celebrate victory against the complexity of a universe that bombards us with five exabytes of data that would paralyze us if we didn’t connect random dots into constellations of dippers, hunters, and sexy ways to please your man.

SAD KEANU (noun)
Origin: Keanu Reeves being open about his struggles with depression.
Definition: The sum total of the internet’s despair and loneliness, funneled down into one perfect manifestation.
Example: “Sad Keanu is sadder than Sad Keanu.”
Cackle of Rads [collective noun]
Origin: Sarah Palin’s Idiot Twitter.
Definition: Grouping of “radical feminists” who attack people with crucifixes. Possibly the left-wing equivalent of the Tea Party (the band, not the political movement), possibly only “radical” because they object to intolerant behaviour and attempts to disguise hate through use of poor grammar and spelling that is meant to be “folksy.” Some believe that membership in the Cackle of Rads bestows various super-powers, including laser-vision, supersonic laughter and ultimate posture.
Example: “The Cackle of Rads assembled there, on the eve of their greatest victory, in the strange and alien landscape of Suffragette City.”
