a college tradition dating to the 1840's on the campus of Wesleyan University in Middletown, Connecticut. originally part of a "canon scrap" ritual in which freshmen were charged with firing the small canon and sophomores with foiling the effort, the canon has fallen into obscurity and legend within the last century.
the scrap exercise ended in 1916 for safety concerns, reemerged for one year in 1923 and appeared finished when the canon was filled with lead and mounted to a pedestal between South College and the campus chapel on College Row.
26 years later, though, on the night of march 12, 1957, students stole the canon from its pedestal and began the canon's long journey around the world. it was presented to the Soviet Union as a symbol of peace, to President Richard Nixon in DC as a protest to the Vietnam War and to the managing editor of Life Magazine in New York in 1967. all efforts were clandestine and unauthorized by the university, at least in word.
since, the canon has made a series of brief appearances on campus, usually related to presidential inaugurations or significant reunions. more often, however, it travels the world in the hands of a secret society (or, perhaps, several secret societies) which tell of the canon's adventures through cryptic letters, postcards and pictures.
the Douglas Canon's current whereabouts are unknown.

To be drunk. English in origin, referring to WW2 fighter pilot who lost both legs in a plane crash and was thus rendered 'legless'.

A "Buster Douglas" is a woman who lacks the pretty factor. They are not the most attractive nor are they desirable. It could also constitute a girl who others think are attractive, yet isnt to all.
Could also be shortened in the right context simply as a buster.
***Not to be confused by the boxer that was known as: James "Buster" Douglas.
"Man, that girl is a buster douglas."
"I dont know what you are thinking; she is a buster douglas."
"Woah ! Buster Douglas !"

When you tilt your head at a 45 degree angle, pucker your lips, squint your eyes, and look like a menacing joke at your victim.
Commonly used to size up an opponent before a beat down. It often results in the one doing the Douglas Face doing nothing.
Did you see that guy? Totally gave me the Douglas Face. He wants to come at me, bro.
