Islamophobia

Irrational fear or hatred of Muslims. Usually found immediately after any terrorist event, resulting in persecution and intimidation of law-abiding Muslim Americans, or anyone who could be mistaken for a Muslim or Arab. Contrary to ultra-right-wing rhetoric, Islamophobia is not disagreeing with the religion of Islam or Sharia law. Islamophobia is fear of Muslims.

Examples of Islamophobia:

1. Reporting your Muslim neighbor to the Department of Homeland Security because you thought the lawnmower he was repairing in his garage was a bomb.
2. Shooting a Sikh store clerk because he was wearing a turban, and you thought that only Muslims wear turbans.
3. Attacking a Muslim woman on the street because you thought she was a terrorist.
4. Detaining law-abiding Muslims and sending them to Guantanamo for extremely shady reasons.

miscegenist

Anyone who has children with someone of a different race. All in all, a step in the right direction. White culture has always had issues with miscegenation, due to the racist pseudo-science of the 19'th century, which sought to prove the white man's superiority over the black. Fortunately, now that that mind set is beginning to fade, people are no longer classifying each other by race. The obsession to keep the race "pure" is ideaological garbage laced with putrid racism.

Racists claim that a miscegenist "muddies" their pure Aryan bloodline. I say it muddies an otherwise functional mind to ponder why skinheads still don't have a clue what Aryan means.

donjon

A defensive structure containing the home of a warlord and his family, central command for his military and base of operations for his regime.

The peasants looked with fear on the donjon up on its mount. Last year, an uprising had been put down. The lord's men had come down and burned some huts, and the leaders of the rebellion were publicly flayed and dismembered.

jesus freak

A self-professed Christian who labors under the mistaken impression that Christians are persecuted in this country, and that he or she is commonly persecuted for his or her beliefs. These people usually attempt to convert everyone they know or meet to their own denomination of "born again" Christianity, thereby alienating a number of non-Christians as well as Christians of denominations not of their own, then attribute their subsequent shunning by society to a fictitious, widespread anti-Christian mania.

Josh: "Hi, my name is Josh, and I'm a Jesus freak."
Tim "Hi, my name is Tim, and I'm Jewish."
Josh: "You need the love of Jesus in your life! Repent! You're going to hell!"
Tim: *walks away*
Josh: "Why do you hate me? Why must I be persecuted?!"
