can of worms

"So yeah, I finally got back at my boss by burning down his house."
"Wow! Did you get caught?"
"Well, that's a whole 'nother can of worms I don't care to get into right now."

dumbassitude

The state of being dumbed down, unconsciously and through inaction, by an external societal force, such as conformity, the media, or the government. Used by legendary hiphop artist Chuck D when he lectured at Saint Joseph's University.

"What we are facing today is the dumbassitude of the American people . . . can I say 'dumbassitude'?"
- Chuck D, Saint Joseph's University 2/11/03
