television

Once envisioned to be the replacement for books and a useful educational tool. Now it is simply a useful method for the government to send subliminal messages and propganda to the masses, and for businesspeople to brainwash said masses into buting their low-quality products.

And it is quite surprising and scary that there are millions of people out there who ACTUALLY buy the products aired on late-night television commercials.

Draft dodger

A person who refuses to go to war when he is being called.

Draft dodging is punishable by several years in jail plus heavy fines.

freedom fries

An American's stupid, sad attempt at being patriotic, because a bunch of snail-eaters refused to cooperate in George Dubya Bush's Operation Iraqi Liberation (O.I.L.) campaign. Americans hate the French, but they sure eat Fritos, and Fritos is derived from the French word "frites", which is what the French call their fries.

I'll still call them FRENCH fries because that's what they were always called, never mind that the French didn't invent them.

Half-Life

A fairly good game that has seen one too many mods, hacks, and cheats. It's already shown its age despite its addictive gameplay.

Half-Life is still popular thanks to the Counter Strike mod.

Tintin

A really cool cartoon that was made back when we didn't have all these bullshit political-correctness laws.

gun control

A plan that has already failed because it only drives the gun sellers underground and makes the guns more available on the black merket.

I bought myself an Uzi, a '45, and an M-16 from the black market thanks to the gun control laws.

Virtua Fighter

The first 3d polygon fighting game made by SEGA in 1992. It was followed by Virtua Fighter 2 (1994), Virtua Fighter 3(1997), and Virtua Fighter 4 (2001). Still the most innovative and realistic 3D fighting game series in existence, since it attempts to mimic real moves and physics as closely as possible. Since Virtua Fighter's creation, there have been a slew of half-assed ripoffs such as NAMCO's Tekken series, and Team Ninja's Dead or Alive series.

Virtua Fighter 2 is still the best and most original 3D fighter of all time. Virtua Fighter 4 doesn't count, since it's based off of Virtua Fighter 2
