A Competition, often held at the end of college finals week, in which teams of four attempt to first consume a 30 pack of beer, then an eighth of an ounce of marijuana, then two large pizzas, and then finish a 100 piece puzzle.
Penalties, usually time, are imposed for spilling beer or vomiting.
Variations on the rules exist:
The beer can be a 36 pack instead of a 30.
The amount of marijuana is sometimes reduced to 2 grams.
The puzzle is sometimes more pieces, depending on how long the participants want the competition to last.
Also, some competitions change the order of events to account for the Beer before bong rule (that's just wrong).
Another variation exists wherein the teams begin in the morning, can drink, smoke, and eat simultaneously, and then once everything has been consumed, may move on to a 1,000 piece puzzle. The teams have until midnight (or in some cases, sunrise of the next day) to complete the challenge. In this variation, the challenge is more geared toward "getting it done" than racing and can be performed by a single team of four if desired.
"Hey man, do you want to take the Great American Challenge?"
"The dildo?"
"No, the other one."
"Fuck yeah!"

A Generally All around good store.
Many people judge the girls and guys who wear it thinking they are imature, popular bitches.
This is NOT ALWAYS the case. I shop there sometimes when there are sales, and occasionaly treat my slef to a high quality, cute button up shirt or polo. But I don't waste my money on a plain tank I can get at Target.
I do agree it is annoying to see 5 girls wearing the same shirt as you though.
I don't like labeling, and it's a cute store. It's not way over priced like Abercrombie or it's brother, Fitch.
I'm just saying it's judged to much, because populars make fools of them selfves, and anyone who wears it.
If you like it, good for you! If you don't, what's it to you? you arn't wearing it...
Person 1: Omg! That shirt is so cute!
Person 2: Yeah! Thanks! I got it on a sale At A&E!
Person 1: Cool! I've been waiting for a sale to get a sweater Want to go this weekend together?
Person 2: Sure!
american eagle outfitters is a clothing store. and A bird. :)
Not a reason to hate someone.

The most useful excuse you will ever have when visiting a foreign land. Gives you almost instant leeway to be rude, ignorant, or just all around screw with foreign peoples mind. Because most countries expect so little brain power from us, why not use that to our advantage, hmm?

Organization founded in 1943 by Lewis H. Brown (the asbestos tycoon).
(Brown's company, Johns-Manville, was the largest asbestos manufacturer in the US during the 1930s, and was involved in a massive, 40-year cover-up of the severe health risks posed by asbestos.)
The American Enterprise Association (AEA) was created to design and promote policies that strengthen the political power of large corporations. In 1970, William Baroody, Sr. became its head and changed the name from "Association" to "Institute" (AEI); he had earlier learned how to (a) launder oversized campaign contributions from corporate boards, and (b) how to present the AEI as an earnest, high-minded, non-partisan research group (or "thinktank"). Baroody's sons, William Jr. and Michael, both became important Conservative Movement figures.
The AEI was, until the 1990's, mainly a very well-heeled devil's advocate against any progressive cause: it opposed regulating cigarettes, municipal water systems, environmental protections of all kinds, and the Endangered Species Act. Its budget grew enormously and it spawned subsidiary organizations such as NGOWatch, the Center for Strategic and International Studies, the Project for a New American Century (PNAC), and many more besides.
During the period 1997-present, the AEI became much more intensively focused on armed confrontation. In the name of "security," especially "energy security," the AEI appears to have spent an increased share of its already-burgeoning budget on promoting war or sanctions against many countries with a majority Muslim population. It argued against democratic review of US foreign policy, and in favor of criminalizing dissent. Position papers ceased to have any research content at all, and became pure polemics.
After the 2008 elections, which provided a clear repudiation of AEI policies *en masse*, the AEI focused on promoting itself as the guardian of national security; it did this by arguing that torture and extraordinary renditions were vital to keeping the USA safe from foreign terrorists. This made the organization valuable to former administration officials subject to prosecution for violations of Hague Conventions & Geneva Conventions
In February 2007, *The Guardian* (UK) reported that the American Enterprise Institute was offering scientists and economists $10,000 each, "to undermine a major climate change report" from the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). AEI asked for "articles that emphasise the shortcomings" of the IPCC report, which "is widely regarded as the most comprehensive review yet of climate change science."

Now with over 1,000 students, this school was once a good college prep school, now turned into a fallen apart waste of money. Students should expect nothing but disappointment if attending there now. Things took a turn for the worst a few years ago when the school ran out of regular printer paper and handed out assignments on green colored paper. That's how broke it became. The good teachers are starting to leave one by one, and the current principal is making the school more like LIC high school (and that is NOT a good thing).
While the school does get students into colleges, they do a mediocre job at best. But the biggest issue is the overcrowding has led to several problems such as: oversized gym classes, health in the AUDITORIUM where nobody can hear shit, no pep rallies due to the auditorium reaching maximum capacity, and a lack of desks for the cramped classes, leaving students to sit on the floor or share the already tiny desk space with others.
WHAT KIND OF BITCH ASS SHIT IS THAT? Seriously, this school might have been good five years ago, but it's gone off the deep end. Staff pick favorites and let some get away with harassment and bullying, the faculty have censored students opinions, and the teachers are given jobs they don't want to do just so the school can save that $$$ and not hire anyone else.
One little plus, I hear they added Physics back. I guess that's a good step...
Parent: You're a graduate of Academy of American Studies? I was thinking about sending my kid there.
Alumnus: Nah are you crazy? That run down shit hole just keeps getting worse year by year. They'll just throw your student into the overcrowded population and make him/her suffer.
Parent: Hmmm, maybe i'll consider another school.
Alumnus: Damn right you better

A euphemistic name conjured up by a notorious group of people climbing up their moral pedastools, insisting that gays are the cause of World War II, justifying atrocites and discrimination of those non-christian, poor or Native American, and supporting the complete dissapearance of the word 'gay'.
"Don we now our gay apparel
Fa la la, la la la, la la la"
{American Family Association} Oh dear. That doesn't look right...
"Don we now our homosexual apparel
Fa la la, la la la, la la la"
