Fashion Cycle Syndrome

First of all, a fashion cycle is where they bring back something that was fashionable, say, 10 years ago, such as bell-bottoms, denim, platform shoes, short skirts, long skirts, the boho gypsy look etc.

Where this becomes confusing is when a cycle is re-cycled and then re-cycled again with another look, which then becomes a look unto itself.

So you could have for example, the “Hippy” look gets re-cycled 10 years later but is combined with the “Lady of the Manor” look too. Then, 10 years later the “HippyLlady of the Manor” look is re-cycled with the “Dallas meets Eskimo” look.

Someone who has the Fashion Cycle Syndrome would be so worried about having the latest look that they would look at someone, who, in reality may have not updated their wardrobe for a while except for maybe a new scarf or some accessory, had innocently gotten dressed that morning without a plan, but to whom the Fashion Cycle Syndrome sufferer will assess as not being behind or dated, but as being so far-thinking ahead that they have gone back to the beginning of another cycle which would include the dated stuff. See?

These mini-assessments are done anywhere from once a day to 20 or 30 times a day, depending on what you do and where you do it. Most women are unaware that they are even doing it as it has become so second-nature.

Fashion Cycle Syndrome sufferer's subconscious thought process – “That stuff she’s wearing is so retro it’s way ahead of me!”

The Black life cycle

The life cycle that black men go through. When you are born, all the way untill puberty you are a niglet. once you hit puberty, you evolve into a nig.(if you have not hit puberty by high school skip the nig stage) Once you enter high school, you become a nigga. Once you turn about 30(age may vary depending on the type) you turn into a nigger. The Last stage, is when you turn about 80 is a lump of coal. This is the stage when your are almost dead.

dam, look at that kid. He dosen't understand The Black life cycle. He hasen't even hit puberty and already callin' himself a nigga...man niglets these days...

Triple F Cycle

A condition where a dysfunctional relationship always lands on one of the three stages, fuck, fight, forgive. Both parties sometimes separate for short periods of time only to get back together to continue where they left off.

Sue-"I thought Sarah and Ryan broke up?"
Kelly-"They did...they're back on the Triple F Cycle."

Born Haber Cycle

The Born Haber Cycle is a method of visualising Hess' law and is often used to find lattice enthalpy, which cannot be determined empirically. Lattice enthalpy measures the energy needed to break apart ionic bonds in a lattice structure. In a Born Haber Cycle, lattice enthalpy can be found by combining the enthalpies of atomisation, ionisation (usually endothermic) and electron affinity (exothermic).

Also something that strikes fear into the hearts of IB chemistry students.

Draw the Born Haber Cycle of MgCl2 to find its lattice enthalpy. (6 marks)

austrian rinse cycle

The act of urination from the penetrating party whilst having anal sex. Resulting in a wet anus and much embarrassment.

"I was really desperate for a slash whilst we were at it anal last night, so I gave her the once over on an austrian rinse cycle."

Rust Cycle Tetralogy

Originally the title of a book, Rust Cycle Tetralogy is a condition in which you feel as if you are being wiped from history piece by piece, slowly over the course of an extended period of time, until you are completely gone. Your friends will forget hanging out with you. Work you've done at your job will simply disappear. That lunch you made earlier and ate? It's back on the kitchen counter, untouched. "I think I'm beginning to disappear".

This condition was first recorded by Bernard Muse, a botanist who set out with the intent of recording and researching the rust cycle in wheat plants on a secluded farm in Utah. Over the course of the winter while trying to study and transcribe the wheat degradation cycle, he would start experiencing the symptoms listed above, and writing them down in his book "The Rust Cycle Tetralogy", which the condition is now named after. His book was found with other personal items when he failed to return home after the allocated time for his stay on the farm finished. Bernard was unfortunately never found.

While the condition does have some similarities to Dementia or other mental degradation diseases, it differs in the fact that other people seem to forget about things you said or did, instead of you yourself forgetting. This condition is speculated to cause a myriad of psychiatric damage to ones self, as you continue to second guess everything you think.

"Hey Bill! remember us going the Yankees game last Tuesday night? it was so crazy that they managed to comeback and win like that at the end!"

"What do you mean? After work I watched The Office for the whole evening."
