A family that opens their Christmas presents on Christmas Eve night as opposed to Christmas morning. Usually done in families with no young kids that believe in Santa Claus and/or cannot wait for the next morning.
I spent christmas break with my girlfriend's family and saw that they're Christmas eve openers since they have no kids under 11.

Perfect way to describe modern day episodes of The Simpsons. The series was hilarious and fantastic in the ninties but now is totally unfunny and unwatchable. The show's main writers started being replaced 2001-03 and the series started to show signs of low-to-no quality. The movie in 2007 was the only funny thing done since the show started to die. Now the show can be compared to a sick animal that cannot continue living and needs to be put down.
I get so bored when I'm sick I find myself watching The Shitsons a lot.

Describes low key sites on the web or unknown content on a well known site that is weird in nature and/or extremely hard, if not impossible, to understand why such content even exists.
The term curiosity killed the cat applies well with this term-and let me tell you, the deep web will show that not only was the cat killed, but subject to things I could be sent to jail for if I were to describe them on a site like UD.
My friend ventured into the deep web on an acid trip, and now thinks Chim Chim from Speed Racer is out to rape and kill him.

A TV network no one under 30 seemed to know existed before the premiers of Breaking Bad and The Walking Dead.
2007: Oh cool tonight Stripes is on-AMC? LOL I have no idea what channel that is.
2013: Oh cool tonight Stripes is on AMC, followed by episodes of Breaking Bad and The Walking Dead.

1. When an LGBT person is prevented from coming out, largely due to pressures from family, religion, or any other outside source that may look down on anything other than heterosexuality.
2. A 33-chapter hip hopera by R. Kelly about an infidelity that quickly spirals out of control
3. Perhaps South Park's most controversial episode, which sees Scientologists praising Stan as the reincarnation of L. Ron Hubbard (the title is a parody of R. Kelly's above mentioned hip hopera). While acclaimed by fans and critics (even being nominated for an Emmy), the episode remains controversial in the eyes of scientologists and is believed to have caused Isaac Hayes to leave the show.
1. I remember being trapped in the closet. It ain't easy being gay in a rural bible belt town.
2. My dad told me of a one night stand that almost turned into Trapped in the Closet
3. Trapped in the Closet is my favorite South Park episode

The NBA's equivalent of the Black Eyed Peas.
Once a very respected and talented player. The longtime leader of the once-lowly Cleveland Cavaliers, actually leading them to successful playoff runs, even bringing them to the finals in 2007, though they lost to the San Antonio Spurs. During this time he was on par with basketball legend Michael Jordan, even taking his number 23 as a sign of respect. However, all the success and fame went to his head and convinced him that fame and money were more important than talent and respect. When his contract with the Cavs expired at the end of the 2009-10 season, Lebron used all the damage that fame did to him and decided to sign with the already dominant Miami Heat. They made it to the finals that year, but fortunately the Dallas Mavericks beat them, giving Lebron a reality check
Anyone who says Lebron James is better than Michael Jordan does not know smart from stupid.

One of the greatest animated sitcoms ever, that sadly only lived to see two seasons. Created by Al Jean and Mike Reiss, two of the head writers of The Simpsons, the series starred Jon Lovitz as Jay Sherman, a fat film critic with very high standards that causes him to give bad reviews to practically every movie he reviews. The series was also known for it's jokes about pop culture, politics, and practically everything else about life back in the mid-90s
The first season aired on ABC in 1994, was cancelled after the end of the season, but picked up by FOX for season 2 in 1995, which saw a rise in viewership, but ultimately ended in cancellation as well (plans for a third season on UPN fell through, though a series of internet shorts were made in 2000).
The Critic was-and still is-a fantastic series-I hope whoever decided to cancel it got fired.
