Mark 13:31
Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.
The Word of the Day
meretricious
1. Appealing in a cheap or showy manner: tawdry. 2. Based on pretense or insincerity.
The Urban Word of the Day
How is Everything Check
The 2 minute check a waiter/waitress does after they bring your meal to the table.
Person1:"We need a new fork. This one fell on the floor." Person2:"I'll ask the waiter to get a new one on his how is everything check."
strategic friendship default
Occurs when the debt owed from a friendly bet between two friends rises to an uncomfortable level causing one friend to cut ties with the other in lieu of paying up.
Robbie: "Did Justin ever make good on that golf wager you two made" Randy: "Wouldn't know, he hasn't talked to me in weeks and he won't return my emails." Robbie: "Sounds like you are the victim of a strategic friendship default."
Reply-None
The opposite of Reply-All, when an email-incompetent person sends you a blank reply to an email you sent them.
I really needed to hear from Felicia on this issue, but all I got was a Reply-None at 4:59.
Clutch Oven
To fart in a car full of people, crank the heat for maximum effectiveness.
Mike was driving us to Jake's party and he farted, trapping us in his clutch oven
sniff test
To test if an item of already worn clothing is suitable to wear out. common amongst students who cant be bothered to do their washing.
Friend1:Hey man cant you just wear those boxers?
Friend2:(sniff test)yeah i can get a couple more uses out of those
solitaire denial
Flipping through the deck over and over while playing the card game Solitaire even though there are no more moves available, denying that you have lost even though you already know it.
Guy #1: Dude, you've gone through the deck 3 times already. Give it up, you've lost.
Guy #2: ...So I have. I'm in solitaire denial again.
Eau d'ouche
The obnoxious, headache-inducing cologne cloud that surrounds a beefy, tight-Armani-shirt wearing dude.
Ugh. Some big meathead just walked by wearing way too much eau d'ouche. I feel like I'm gonna puke.
