I Saw U2 Live Twice's definitions
1. a notorious hit song from a famous album from the late Sixties by the legendary Rolling Stones. It briefly describes humanity's history of violence and lust for power and wealth from the point-of-view of Satan, AKA "the Devil" among other names. The title comes from a book written earlier in the 20th Century. Many bands such as U2 and Guns 'N' Roses have covered this song live in concert.
2. a term used to describe something (like a story) from the viewpoint or perspective of someone infamous or evil. The villian's side of the story, or at least how he/she sees or experiences it.

1. Allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste...
When I saw the Rolling Stones in concert in 1997 they performed many hits, including "Symphony For The Devil". A great show. See them before they drop dead on the stage.
2. When the Star Wars movie The Phantom Menace was in the cinemas during the spring of 1999, a reviewer featured in a local alternative press weekly paper stated that the film was based largely on the life story of Anakin Skywalker who would later become the infamous villian Darth Vader later on. The critic referred to this by saying "now it's sympathy for the devil time".
3. the media (especially network TV) gave a buttery and rosy summary of the career of a certain politician who died that day. He had made a strong legacy and track record of arrogance, hatred, ignorance, bigotry, bullying, trying to force his views on America by methods such as trying to force censorship against everything he didn't like, and so on. The media presented him as some sort of "country gentleman" but I remember how he tried to use the U.S. Constitution as toilet paper. I guess it was sympathy for the devil time now. But I remember his hateful scornful attitude and I say he was an enemy of democracy and he can BURN IN HELL.

Get the sympathy for the devil mug.a slang abbreviation for the word "fool". May have originated with black people but people of nearly all ethnic groups use it now.
1. Mr. T often says "I pity the fool". The last word in that phrase has often been mistrued as "foo".
2. In my sociology class in college our professor was giving a presentation about the presence of violence in human society. He stated that the family is the 3rd most "violent" institution in society (#1 and #2 being the military and police due to what said occupations may require). He mentioned domestic abuse and soon he drifted direction to the women, talking about date abuse. He said "in a relationship no one should be calling all the shots. If you don't want to do something he shouldn't try to force you to. If he ever beats you THEN THE RELATIONSHIP SHOULD BE OVER. If he does it once he'll do it again. He might say that he can change but he won't. People like that want someone to control and use. YOU DON'T HAVE TO TAKE IT FROM THE FOO. You deserve better. You need a real man, not some immature foo looking for a punching bag or someone to slap around..."
3. to a certain Bahamian celebrity: are you reading this? We saw that picture and what some foo did to you. Don't be a foo too!

Get the foo mug.In 1995 or so Demi Moore starred in a movie adaptation of the book "The Scarlet Letter". In that story set in New England during the Puritan theocracy times Hester Prynne bears a child out of wedlock. For this she is sentenced to wear a letter "A" on her clothing to denote that she is guilty of adultery. That movie was panned by the critics big time. I read a review of that flick in the entertainment section of a local independent "underground" weekly newspaper. The first thing that the review said was "Fucking A"! Get it?

Get the fucking A mug.Mick Jagger of the Rolling Stones still lives fast like he did 20 years ago. He has eternal youth. He is a rock and roll Peter Pan.

Get the Peter Pan mug.a singer/guitarist who was in a band in the late 50s that had a hit with "Journey to the Center of the Mind". He went solo in the mid 70s. He gained a reputation for his wild stage antics and meandering crazy gonzo onstage rants. He has released many albums but the only good solo songs he has made are "Little Miss Dangerous" (used in an episode of Miami Vice) and the radio hit "Cat Scratch Fever". Such a small number of good songs from a 30-year+ career is a mighty sad ratio. In the 90s he was a member of the derivative band Damn Yankees. A gun enthusiast and hunting fan, he's caused controversy by his support of canned hunting and killing animals for no damn good reason. He says that all environmentalists and animal advocates can "kiss his ass". He did his damndest to get out of the draft during the Vietnam War era (1958 - 1975) but now is a cheerleader and armchair warrior, claiming to "support the troops". A complete dumbass hypocrite. He visited one of Saddam Hussein's palaces like a spectator after the Iraqi dictator was deposed. Terrible Ted said he really got a thrill out of that. It's OK to take a look around after the violence has gone someplace else and you're out of danger, isn't it? Ted said that Baghdad should've been "Nagasaki"ed. Sheer ignorance. Since he supports the Iraq War so much, why don't he ship his cowardly ass over to Iraq and fight it as well? He has done and said countless other offensive things. He is a slave to an extreme political ideology. He is now a droid, a brainwashed robot who can't think for himself and cannot accept the diversity that America is supposed to be.
In a concert in Michigan a few years ago, a journalist writing a review of a Ted Nugent concert noted that Ted performed an "idolatrous ritual" of "worshipping the American flag". Ted Nugent has long been known to be obnoxious in his concerts and such. Now he's also a pushy extremist loudmouth cretin asshole programmed by an ideology. Sad.

Get the Ted Nugent mug.1. In the liner notes of Jimmy Buffett's new CD ("Buffet Hotel") Jimmy explains the stories behind each song on the disc. For the number "Surfing In A Hurricane" he describes his early career on the Alabama shore yet having a strong desire of playing in California - "the Mecca of songwriters and surf culture." He compares the Alabama surf waves to the bigger ones in "Califuckinfornia".
2. you can also use the term to express amazement and delight for the State of Cali.

1. My last year in the military was spent in various commands in Northern California. I've been in San Francisco, Sausalito, Mount Tamalpais, Napa Valley, Monterey, Sacromento, Alcatraz and other exciting places. Califuckinfornia is a state everyone should go visit. I love it.
2. Huey Lewis and the News, Green Day, the Tubes, Tommy Tutone, the Grateful Dead, the Doobie Brothers, the Eagles, Van Halen, NWA, Ratt,the Beach Boys, Hiroshima, Dead Kennedys and many more important music acts come from Califuckinfornia, dude! That's where's it's at.

Get the Califuckinfornia mug.OK, everybody seems to have their definitions of this nasty word. Here's one you all missed. It's the name of an indie band from the San Francisco Bay Area that got together around 1993 or so. They have put out several albums over the years. The music is pretty much alright, there are some good songs there, and their albums are critically acclaimed but because of the band name radio won't play their music, most record stores won't stock their albums, and most clubs won't book them. If it weren't for the Internet they probably wouldn't be going anywhere. Go to Wikipedia, type in the name and go to the proper entry. At the bottom of that page is a link to the band's website.
Fuck is a band that is in a situation where because of their name their prospects for success are limited. The success they have is largely due to word-of-mouth and of course, the Net.
