Combustable Lemon

From the game Portal 2. A lemon with the power to explode and start a fire. Yelled by Cave Johnson via an old recording while Chell and Glados navigate through the abandoned part of Apeture Science laboratories.

"I'm gonna get my engineers to invent a combustable lemon that burns your house down!"-Cave Johnson

Question Marked Out

When your internet browser doesn't load properly and several-if not all-pictures are replaced with a mini question mark.

I want to go on Facebook right now but everything is question marked out.

White Sox

Chicago's American League and south side MLB team (as opposed to the Cubs, who play on the North Side). Often regarded as the "second team of the second city" in spite of:

*More world series titles (three to the Cubs' two) as well as the advantage of actually having won a title in the last 100 (or rather 105) years.

*A statistically better record over the last 25 years (i.e. more winning seasons than losing)

*A newer, nicer stadium that helps provide a happy, fun, comfortable ballgame experience (Wrigley may have more history and outer beauty, but it's a different story inside the ballpark)

*Fans who, though not above taunting and harassing, will actually respect players and fans of the opposing team (unlike Cubs fans, who enjoy turning aggressive on innocent fans and players when things don't go their way)

When the White Sox lose, they admit it was the result of bad playing by their team or much better playing by the other, and look to build a better team from that point regardless.

When the Cubs lose, they blame some ridiculous "curse" or even one of their own fans and let yet another defeat become more and more part of the team's history and daily life

Family-Friendly

1. Something intended so that all members of the family, little kids, older kids (ages 10-teen) kids, parents, and grandparents can enjoy.

2. Codeword used by conservative nutjobs to ban gay rights/marriage, prevent Marijuana legalization, outlaw most Rock music, Heavy Metal and Rap, or at least get it censored, make video games age-restricted, try to get multiple shows and movies like South Park, Beavis and Butthead, Pokemon, and the Harry Potter movies banned or restricted, and shove religion down everyone's throats.

1. We had my young cousins over last night and had to sit through a Family-Friendly movie. Honestly it wasn't that bad and it was a lot more pleasant than school.

2. Conservative nutjob: Thanks to our efforts, we are on the way to creating a more family-friendly nation full of war but free from homosexuality, harmless drugs that would help our economy, music, and anything else that does not promote christianity unto everyone

Cincinnati Subway

A term used to describe something that goes unfinished and is seen as a failure for whoever was involved.

Named after the abandoned, unused Subway system below the streets of Cincinnati.

I've really fallen behind in Spanish this year. I don't think I can finish but I really don't want it to turn into a Cincinnati subway

The Crimson Ghost

There are two potential definitions for crimson ghost:

A. A classic Horror film from 1946.

B. The title character of the above mentioned film.

C. The mascot for the horror punk group The Misfits, who adapted it from the above mentioned movie. It is featured on most of their merchandise and on most of their CDs/Singles. Due to it's dark look a lot of people wear it without knowing much, if anything, about the band.

Kid A: Hey did you ever see the movie The Crimson Ghost.

Kid B: I heard about it, but right now all I know is that it's the logo for The Misfits.

MTV

From 1981-1997, MTV was a great network, playing great (and sometimes not so great) music and good programming, most notably Beavis and Butthead. However, around 1997, MTV started focusing on Pop music, shifting away from the Rock music that made them famous, and canceling Beavis and Butthead (though fortunately brought it back in 2011). While MTV did air decent reality shows in the early part of the 21st century like Jackass and Viva La Bam, it was mainly focused on crap-tacular programs like Room Raiders. Then in 2009 started the era of their worst programs-crap like Teen Mom, 16 and Pregnant, and worst of all Jersey Shore. MTV is now a network of complete filth and is in need of a complete overhaul.

MTV was once a great network for music but now focuses on the most mind-numbing crap imaginable.
