Pramath slang. A place where wars are fought.
"Max. Da Rine Rand. It happened in Da Rine Rand."
What happens when a person first rejects altruist, collectivist, and mystical morality for a rationally self-interested one. It generally lasts a short time, but can have long term negative consequences for the self-interested individual. Until the individual sorts out his new values and long term goals, they walk around insulting altruists and people that value/love them; being worried that they have been taken advantage of by those they previously valued.
Ayn Rand effect:
Son: I've been reading Ayn Rand, and her book has lead me to question all my relationships. She says that collectivism is a sin and thus just because I belong to a race, family, nation or other group, it doesn't mean that it's in my self-interest to believe as they do. I need to have my own objective reasoning.
Father: So your rejecting your religion, family and everything I ever taught you because of a book?
Son: Well, I just don't think it's a justification for a morality anymore.
Father: I'm writing you out of my will. How's that for being rationally self-interested?

1)The tendency of writers to pen down in 20 lines what can be essentially said in a few lines. Done deliberately to confound and confuse the reader.
2) The tendency of authors to think that the intelligence of an article is directly proportional to number of lines written.
In honor of Ayn Rand, whose novels often run into pages and pages and who takes 10 pages to explain what could be explained in a few lines more effectively.

Treating your friends, family, and co-workers like a self-important prick for a short period of time following the completion of any work written by the philosopher and author Ayn Rand. The strength and duration of the effect is directly proportional to the length of the work read.
Co-worker #1: Hey, what's with Steve? I asked him to sponsor me in the Cancer walk this weekend and he told me I was evil.
Co-worker #2: Oh, it must be the Ayn Rand effect. I saw him reading 'The Fountainhead' in the break room.

The political view of most modern 'conservatives.' Anti-government and taxation while taking advantage of social programs in their daily lives such as roads, police and fire departments, schools, the judiciary system and various other social welfare programs.
James: I hate the fact that I have to give my hard earned money to Uncle Sam!
Sara: But it is needed to pay for things required for you to even be able to earn that money in the first place.
James: Like what?
Sara: Well for one, the FDA makes sure your meds are safe and won't kill you.
James: *Snicker*
Sara: Think about what you are actually saying before you spout off in the future. Ayn Rand Socialism is a load of bullocks.

Pronounced: Hunk-coo Dew-Runt
A combination of name and surname to give to a child who has reached high school without undergoing any symptoms of puberty and because of his insecurities he is an overall doos and struggles to get accepted at school and/or by his family. A Hanco Du Rand may/or may not be fully homosexual but whether or not they learn to enjoy the company of a woman, they will most likely never be able to not get aroused by men. In short: A Hanco Du Rand could be the guy at your sleep over constantly asking to join you in your room when you change cloths but will always prefer to change somewhere nobody else can see and when confronted about why he is like this he will most likely go into defensive mode and talk shit about your parents or maybe your sister if you have one.
Potgieter: "We had this guy at the party last night who kept insisting that he and I should measure our dicks against each other, when I refused to do it cause it sounded hella gay he started mocking me about my father's financial state and kept saying he slept with my mother."
Magda:"Sounds like a real Hanco Du Rand."
