Stand Behind the Giant

Often abbreviated as SBTG, a deathcore band from Sacramento, CA. Their lineup consists of four members. Sonny is their vocalist/rhythm guitarist, Myles is the drummer, Ryan is the lead guitarist, and Brandon is the bassist. This band started in August of 2008. Their music consists of fast-paced guitar riffs and heavy-hitting drums. They are a very talented, young band. All of the members are current high school students.

Nico: Dude, did you go to SBTG's show last night?
Jacob: No, I couldn't make it because my dad had to do something with a Japanese Walrus.

OMG! Stand Behind the Giant is so fuckin' hot, I get so wet when I think about Sonny.

Leading from Behind

When a leader creates or empowers a grassroot group to do their bidding, especially in cases where it would be illegal for leading direct efforts (e.g. Bush Doctrine of preemptive regime change) or where it would be consider imperialist, etc.. This type of support and empowerment can be mutually beneficial for the leader and the grassroot group. However, it can be to the detriment to one or the other (or both) if there is a separation of interests. As the grassroot group develops leadership roles the new leaders may take the group in a very different direction that is beneficial to the grassroot group, or the empowerer may begin to choose or control the leaders and take it in a very different direction. In the early stages the new leaders in the grassroot groups may be weak and depend on the support of the outside leader to consolidate power. However, over time a leader may consolidate power for their own interest, or the new grassroot leaders and the outside leaders may work to the detriment of the grass roots group. This is especially true in cases where the outside and/or inside leader(s) have goals inconsistent with the grassroot groups. In a lot of cases the result is total chaos with the consolidated groups fragmenting into self interest groups who compete and who don't know how to cooperate.

Recently Obama has been successful with his policy of "leading from behind" in Libya, however, it is yet to be seen if the grassroot groups will achieve any of Obama's goals.

Leading from Behind is a dominant foreign strategy of USA Presidents. While it worked in Vietnam, Cambodia, Middle East, Africa. Panama, Afghanistan initially it failed miserably in the long run because of corruption and almost complete movement away from the goals of the original grassroot group and often the group leading from behind. In places like Cuba it failed miserably yet continued, because it satisfied the special interests of the Cuban exiles.

Pennsboro Pull-behind

A glorified reach around that typically involves meth and mountain dew.

I'm headed down to Bridgeport Equipment for a good Pennsboro pull-behind.

Stuck behind the asshole

Being stuck behind someone driving too slow. You stay behind them thinking that they are not gonna go exactly where you are going for long but they do. Then your frustration sets in being stuck behind the ASSHOLE!!!

I was driving home from work after a long week, I was making good time until I was stuck behind the asshole.

behind the orange curtain

This term is used by people in Los Angeles, when referring to travelling within Orange County. This refers to the idea that people in Orange County know nothing about what's going on in Los Angeles or even the world, and only are concerned with local affairs.

Comes from the term for Russia "behind the iron curtain" from the cold war era.

Man, I had to go "behind the orange curtain" the other day to visit my cousins. They still think rockabilly is cool!

How come you missed the big concert? Oh man....since I moved behind the Orange curtain, there's no way for me to keep up with what's going on.....there's no LA Weekly or anything!
