Holy Wood was a concept album released by Marilyn Manson in 2000 following the Columbine High School massacre and serves as their rebuttal at the accusations leveled at them. Their frontman has described it as "a declaration of war".
The record make numerous allegories to pop culture history to show how everyone had a participating role in Columbine: From Abraham Zapruder to the JFK Assassination, from the Beatles' White Album to the Charles Manson murders and from the Crucifixion to the Dead Rock Star celebrity worship phenomenon, the band left no stone unturned to give america a righteous ass-kicking.
Notable themes:
1.Guns, God and Government - rightwing America's main obsession that, arguably, fucked Klebold and Harris up more than any 'rock' or 'metal' album.
2.Celebritarianism - a word coined by Manson to describe a devotion to celebrity and celebrity culture. In the album it is a religion that canonizes dead celebrities into saints in the same way the crucifixion canonized Jesus Christ into a superstar messiah and celebrity. In effect, the crucifixion is the root cause of shit like reality TV, Jersey Shore, TMZ and Harris and Klebold's desire to become famous by murdering people.
Holy Wood was never a commercial success and received mixed reviews from music journalists who said the band's artistic pretensions overshadowed the powerful lyrical indictment contained in it. Despite this, many people view it as the band's finest hour.
Kerrang Magazine: ...There has still not been as eloquent and savage a musical attack on the media and mainstream culture as Manson achieved with Holy Wood (In the Shadow of the Valley of Death).
Me:If you thought what Manson said about Columbine in Michael Moore's documentary was incisive, you should see how Holy Wood throws his detractors hypocrisies right back into their faces.

Wood oaks Jr. High is the best school ever
The people there are so diverse yet awesome! It gave me a new life on Jewish people. Whoever says bad things about the school hadn’t seen how beautiful it is!
Very good and the Asst. Principal is the nicest person there! We do so much and they give us so much back.
Erin: Dude your school is so awesome, where do you go?
Karen: I go to Wood oaks Jr. High

A phrase used to articulate feelings of immense loathing of someone that is known for unintelligent or troublesome actions. The phrase being used when a particular action comes into play. Usually followed by a facepalm.
Origin: First used in season 4 of "Futurama", episode 68 - "Obsoletely Fabulous". Bender, because of his new found hatred for advanced technology, has had a downgrade, making him a wooden, steam-powered robot. Bender enters the scene and Leela immediately exclaims "Oh brother, he's made of wood."
Leroy: "Is that Clyde over there?"
Jeff: "Dammit, I think so. What's he up to this time?"
Clyde: "Hey Jeff! Check it out! I found this guy down at the hospital on 42nd street! He seems pretty cool! Check out his cool bracelet!"
Leroy: "Isn't that 'hospital' a personal care home for the mentally ill?"
Jeff: "Oh brother, he's made of wood."

Used to desribe someone who is so caught up with the big picture that they lose sight of the smaller but more important details. Opposite of can't see the wood for the trees.
"If you pay off an extra €150 a month on your mortgage, you'll pay it off two years earlier and save €4,000 altogether."
"But since my husband lost his job, we're barely making enough to pay the bills as it is; we can't afford an extra €150 every month."
"Ah, but if you just make this sacrifice now, you'll be in a much, much better position in 18 years!"
"But as I said... oh forget it, you can't see the trees for the wood."

The idea is you say something that a lot of people have done but is still a pretty good achievement and can't be either proven or disproven:
1) Used when one feels insecure about or overshadowed by another person's accomplishments
2) Sly comeback to someone who has just made a statement about how amazing they are
Person: I just got back from Somalia rescuing orphans for the peace corps. Man I'm awesome
Person 2: Yeah, well I had sex with Tiger Woods too
