spinningtabletop's definitions
An analogue to the Freudian slip that involves a physical action. This action must be indicative of a subconscious preoccupation or habit.
Fabio and Felipe were hanging out. Fabio was eating an apple when all of a sudden the core slipped from his hand and fell to the floor. Felipe thus inferred a subconscious propensity of Fabio to litter on his own floor, creating a literal Caleian slip.
Named after the first man to observe and recognize one such "slip".

Get the Caleian slipmug. Expression that shows you have no vocabulary and marks you as uneducated. It shows complete laziness and stupidity to use f*** and s*** to express 90% of all statements. Learn some other words.
Fuck this shit, man! No, I'm serious, this $h!t over here is like, f***ed! This part is...."
"Dude-your engine failed because the timing belt wore out. Can't you just say that?"

Get the fuck this shitmug. I'm going 10 mph faster after finally getting a real road wheelset. The slick tires and lightweight wheels make a world of difference.

Get the wheelsetmug. Someone who is technically a vegetarian in that they abstain from meat, but who negates all the potential health benefits by eating mostly junk food. Many teenagers fall into this category. It makes being a "vegetarian" really easy, since you still get to eat crap all the time, and still get the cool hippie status that comes with vegetarianism.
"Hey, I've become a vegetarian, and I LOVE IT! I never thought it would be so easy!"
"Wow, I could never live on whole wheat bread, cabbage soup and beans."
"No, it's easy-potato chips and twinkies have no meat in them!"
"Dude, you're just another junkitarian."

Get the junkitarianmug. A commonplace word that occasions exclamations of "Ooh, SAT word!" when employed in normal discourse. Incidentally, those who use this moniker happen to not read enough books, not even pulp not conducive to formal education.

Get the SAT wordmug. I was like, "I need to define this term", but my brother was, like, "no, everyone knows it already," but I was, like, "hey, I have nothing better to do."

Get the was likemug. A very fashionable car that makes you look "environmentally conscious." People also think the fuel economy is unbelievably amazing.
The fact is, however, that if you are really interested in saving the environment and gas, a regular subcompact is a much better choice. Older subcompacts such as the Geo Metro, some Honda Civics, the Toyota Tercel, and so on actually got equal or better gas mileage, often above 50 mpg. There is also no electric motor or batteries to mess with, so they are cheaper and easier to fix. These reliable little cars are so cheap to buy and maintain today that it is ridiculous to claim a new Prius saves money.
They also have zero environmental impact, since the are already manufactured. In addition, hybrids' gigantic battery packs full of lead, toxic heavy metals and acid, screw the environment so badly that some people have calculated that a Hummer H3 has less environmental impact.
Also, conventional cars can be hundreds of pounds lighter without the batteries. Performance (and fuel economy) is improved. There is also more room/fewer ugly bulges/ lower aerodynamic profile without a battery pack.
However, this will not convince the liberals who only want to LOOK like they are on the right path.

Liberal nerd: "Everyone should own a Prius! It just makes sense! I can't believe it gets 45 mpg! I'm really just self-interested, because it will save me $$ in the long run!"
Liberal nerd who knows something about cars: Dude, my 1992 Honda Civic VX gets 60 mpg, and it looks better even though it's 17 years old. I bought it for $500 and I can do all the maintenance myself. It can also dust your battery pack on wheels.
Nerd 1: Hey, it's worth it for the status it gives me.
