Antibiotic

A type of drug that was (officially) discovered in 1928 when Sir Alexander Fleming was cleaning out his petri dishes then saw a mold on one of them. He studied it, and noticed that all of the bacteria around the mold had been killed. Now, we use these "wonder drugs" to save people who (over a hundred years ago) would have died a painful death from bacterial infections. Now, unfortunately, they are overused and used when unnecessary, and can lead to antibiotic resistance. Includes penicillin, amoxicillin, streptomycin, neomycin, paromycin, cefepime, cefprozil, aztreonam, cifprofloxacin, etc.

Doctor: You have strep throat, so I will be prescribing you a ten-day antibiotic.

Patient: Thank you, Docto. Now my throat won't be sore anymore.

Jacob Black

The only good character in the whole Twilight series. Actually CARES about Bella, instead of being an over-controlling stalker (see Edward Cullen).

Edward Cullen fan: OMG!!! EDWARD IS SOOO HAWT!!!
Jacob Black fan: STFU!!! Jacob actually cares about Bella! Edward is just a controlling, stalker douchbag!
Edward fan: YOU STFU!!! BELLA AND EDWARD WERE MADE FOR EACH OTHER!!!
Jacob fan: Whatever, you brainwashed twit! (kills Edward fan)

Spit It Out

A pretty awesome rap-metal song from the band Slipknot. It was the second single off of their debut album "Slipknot". If you read the lyrics, they are obviously about anger and arguments.

SPIT IT OUT!!! All you wanna do is drag me down, all I wanna do is stamp you out!

Education

Something that is SERIOUSLY taken for granted here in America. Seriously, all you gotta do is go in with an open mind/positive attitude, do your work (try hard, and if you don't understand it, simply ask for help), pass the tests, and get your diploma. It's free, and it's worth it.

Kids in third-world countries would KILL to get an education, and here we are, acting like spoiled brats by thinking we gotta "conform to the system".

Harry Potter

One of the gayest book series ever written. Written for D&D nerds who live in their parents' basements and for children. As well as Satan worshippers. Often compared to an even gayer book series: Twilight.

Goth boy: OMG, Harry Potter is SO f***in' awesome!
Normal boy: STFU, you stupid gothsucker.

Harry Potter

A pretty good book series. I have actually decided to read it, and I am impressed with it. Beats the SHIT out of that gay-ass Twilight series.

Earlier, I posted an entry attacking Harry Potter. Now, I actually LOVE the series. And I no longer think it is just for D&D nerds, Satanists, etc.

Snitching

When somebody runs to the police or somebody of authority to turn in somebody over something minor and can be fixed easily. Turning in somebody for something SERIOUS does NOT count as snitching.

Snitching: "Officer, somebody ran a red light. The license plate number was so-and-so, driving a pickup truck".

Not snitching: "Officer, I witnessed a rape. The person had a leather jacket and blue jeans. The victim was wearing a blue blouse with a pink skirt.
