Surfin' Bird

Song by early Garage Rock/Rock n Roll band The Trashmen from their debut album of the same name. The Ramones did a terrific cover of it on their "Rocket to Russia" album.

A great song indeed. Sadly most kids today only know about it due to it's use on an episode of "Family Guy".

Kid A: What are you listening to?

Kid B: Surfin' Bird

Kid A: Sweet! Which version, The Trashmen or The Ramones?

Kid B: Ummm...Peter Griffin's?

Kid A: You mean The Trashmen's version.

Kid B: No I'm pretty sure this is Peter's

Kid A: *sigh* Never mind. *to self* That's why I'm fine with Futurama

Repressed memory

A memory that is usually traumatic and made so that it can't be recalled.

Peter started going to a therapist after recalling a repressed memory about being abused by his father.

MLA Format

Stupid, pointless method for writing a paper and citing your sources. Dictates that every little detail must be done in a certain way and if you make the smallest mistake then you deserve to fail (and be expelled if your in college).

The paper took me only a half hour, but I ended up spending all night correcting it because of the stupid MLA format rules.

Victoria Jackson

Former Saturday Night Live performer turned crazy, homophobic, teabagger.

I'd rather get gangraped by five Snookis than listen to the right wing bullshit coming out of Victoria Jackson's mouth.

School

Once one of the most important steps in creating and maintaining society, schools in the last 60 years or so have become about as effective as a condom with no covering on the tip.

Multiple factors have contributed to the downfall of school effectiveness, including (but not limited to):

*Teachers that treat students like they're more stupid than they really are

*Schoolboards and administrations that are more concerned with what the students are wearing than what they are learning

*Textbooks so boring and poorly written they make the worst parts of the bible look like the Harry Potter books

*Students who take out their frustrations with the school system on other students, making it hard for anyone to look forward to going

*Assignments, tests, and grading systems that make students start worrying about the smallest, most insignificant things.

Schools are really now nothing but prisons that let you go home every day-so long as you return the next.

Wheatley

Note: It's only fair to point out this article may contain spoilers.

Character from the video game Portal 2. Helps you through the first part of the game to the point where you remove Glados from power. At that point he betrays you and sends you to the abandoned part of Apeture Science, forcing you to form a partnership with Glados to stop him.

Wheatley nearly kills Chell and Glados so many times it's not even funny.

Kill La Kill

Perhaps the most popular anime of 2014. Known for fight scenes and high amounts of fanservice.

Take everything that makes Gurren Lagann so epic and everything that makes Fooly Cooly so bizzare and you've got Kill La Kill.
