ACDC

A lousy Grade Point Average of 2.25 for four courses, consisting of an A, two C's, and a D. If this is your norm, don't plan on going to grad school, or else you'll be taking the HI-GHWAY TO HELL!

Btw, my grades totally suck this semester, an A a C and a D. If I had another class and got a C in it id have ACDC lol. My A was in Computer Repair of course.

Nationals

A dismal Major League Baseball team that despite a move from Montreal, still hasn't gotten over the 1994 baseball strike.

Given that the Nationals (then Expos) went 74-40 in 1994 and were tied for the best record in baseball before the strike, the loss of morale led to season after season of dismay.

Crimson Omen

The name of the logo in the Xbox 360 hit Gears of War. It consists of a blood-covered skull incased within a blood-covered COG (Coalition of Ordered Governments) logo. These appear in the single player mode wherever a COG tag is to be found, as well as in multiplayer as a health meter (the more apparent the symbol appears on the screen, the closer you are to being downed).

The Gears of War icon that appears on your Gamercard showing you played the game is the Crimson Omen.

Interstellar Travel

Travel between star systems - which may someday be do-able but given that even our closest star is 4.6 light years away it is something that will require technology and resources that we can only dream of by today's standards.

It is also a very big subject in science fiction; the rapid transit between star systems by faster-than-light travel; Star Trek, Star Wars, and Mass Effect are examples.

While Voyager 1 is technically making interstellar travel, at the rate it is going, it will take more than 72,000 years from now to do so.

Assist

1. A statistic in sports, mainly hockey and soccer, when you pass the object in play to a teammate who then scores.

2. A statistic in first-person shooters that shows how many times you tried to kill an enemy but your teammate had to finish the job.

1. In an ice hockey game, I got an assist by passing across the ice to my teammate who then shot and scored.

2. In Call of Duty I shot a guy in front of me only for him to strafe away and I got an assist after he ran right into my teammate's bayonet.

Flunked in

(slang) - To be stuck at a university because your grades are too low for any desirable school to want to take you as a transfer student. Not to be confused with flunking out, since you are still at the school. However, many students who flunk in eventually flunk out, and most students who have flunked out flunked in first.

With a 1.75 GPA and not liking the environment he was in, Louis applied to a few other schools he wanted to transfer to. Since he was rejected from all of them, it's a safe bet he's flunked in.
