lovely

a British term that's becoming more widely used in American English to describe someone who is mild and pleasant. To say that someone is lovely might mean that he or she is nice or easy to be around, but isn't the most fuckable or fuckworthy person.

1. If someone says that you're lovely, you ain't getting laid.

2. Nate: What do you think of the new girl at the office?
Dave: She's lovely.
Nate: Would you bang her?
Dave: Hmmm...I wouldn't go that far.

rape

a horrific crime in which the sexual will of a perpetrator, a rapist, is imposed upon a rape victim, who for whatever reason does not manage to prevent or stop the violation from taking place. While rape disproportionally affects women, it can happen to a person of any sex, orientation, or gender.

In the recent political arena, Republicans have misused the word "rape," describing some rapes as "legitimate", citing that it is "God's will" when a rapist impregnates his victim, and even calling rape "beautiful" when it results in a child being conceived. For the most part, these statements were made to express extreme opposition to abortion rights, and thankfully many a conservative Republican political career was destroyed when their shocking words sent reproductive age women and men running into the arms of Democratic candidates.

In the middle of the 2015 Grammy Awards, President Obama appeared on the big screen to speak out against rape and violence against women.

steady drip

when a faucet is kept open as slightly as possible, so that as few as five droplets of water per minute are released. This preventative measure is taken by tenants and homeowners during the wintertime, to keep the water supply flowing and avoid pipes bursting in subfreezing temperatures. During the coldest months of the year, apartment landlords often advise tenants to leave their faucets on a steady drip, which over an eight hour period may add up to a mere five cents in water costs.

Bobby didn't want to leave his faucets on steady drip, thinking he'd have a lower water bill this winter. The pipes at his apartment burst open, and now his landlord is holding him responsible for the damages.

controlled environment

a place or area where rules, regulations and behavioral norms are subject to strict enforcement or scrutiny. A person responsible for maintaining order in a controlled environment will normally strive to appear consistent when out in the open, but may enforce rules arbitrarily behind closed doors.

Kids who grow up in excessively controlled environments often fall behind in college, having all that freedom to cut loose but not knowing how to manage it.

unreleased urine flow

the excess pee that remains in the bladder after urinating at a urinal. For men, a possible solution to unreleased urine flow, which can cause a variety of health problems (including cancer), is to stand with pants dropped at or below the knees, or to pee sitting down. This can be problematic in public restrooms, for obvious reasons, but the long term consequences can be devastating.

The consequences of unreleased urine flow can range from a few drops of piss dribbling down the leg to full-blown bladder cancer.

new skin

refers to human skin that has never before received tattoo ink or any other form of permanent cosmetics. Sometimes also called virgin skin.

The process of healing a tattoo is expected to be somewhat different for first-timers with new skin, who might not heal as quickly as a tattoo addict whose body is already familiar with the ink.

Kanye West

Kim Kardashian's other ass.

Kanye West needs to chill out at the Grammys. Beyonce doesn't need help from Kanye, or anyone else, for that matter.
