A form of debate inferior to policy, as proved by its lack of a definition on urban dictionary. Although it varies around the country, it generally emphasizes presentation more than policy does. However, at many tournaments, the speed is catching up to policy.
There are two types of LDers: policy LDers and traditional LDers. Policy LDers spew and read cards off computers, and lose when they have lay judges. Traditional LDers speak slowly, act politely, make eye-contact, and win only when they have lay judges.
It is named after the debates between Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass. The topic changes every two months and usually relates to whether an action or policy is just. An LDer talks about a value and a kriterion, and cites philosophers in their scattered cards.
Did you see that team? They weren't spewing and they kept looking up at the judge. They must have been LDers. We won, of course.
This was more of a policy-style LD debate tournament. None of the old school kids broke.
This was more of a traditional LD tournament. None of the spewers broke. Stupid lay judges who can't comprehend kritiks.

Strip club off Broadway in San Francisco, CA. The establishment typically hires hoodrats from the Bay Area, but once in a while you can find a really hot chick. The club has a VIP area, which is a joke. At least now, they have servers that bring you non-alcoholic drinks.
On any given night of the week, you are likely to find Luie and Paulie hanging around talking to the girls or freely working the door.
