Newbia's definitions

like

1.A word that is inserted randomly into a sentence. Most people use it just because they're used to it, even some English teachers, and they won't use it when writing but will say it without meaning to. It used to be what you said instead of "um" but not people are so used to it they say,"Like, um..."

2."so I was all like" means "I said"

1.So I went to the mall and there was this, like, really cute shirt. And I, like, asked how much it cost.

2.So the guy was all like,"You should use proper english and say 'I said'," and I was like,"Don't, like, tell me how to talk..."

spring break

A small vacation where you don't have school for a week in Spring, usually in March or April.

Spring Break is famouse because high schoolers and people in college often use this time to go to someplace warm (such as Florida or Cancun) and go wild and crazy, with lots of sex and beer.

Marie was greatful for a break from college. She went to the beach for Spring Break, and ended up getting drunk and having sex.

Robby was greatful from a break from 6th grade. He went to his house for Spring Break and ended up playing playing video games the entire week.

cartoon network

A channel on TV devoted to showing animated shows. During the day these shows are aimed at children. Later on you get a slightly older crowd and a lot of anime. Starting at 11 each night (except Fridays) you have adult swim, which is a block of programming devoted to animated shows targeted at the 14+ category.

Cartoon Network is a pretty good channel. It is better than Nickelodean (though I still think Nick's good) and adult swim is the best.

metrosexual

A straight male who has a feminine side (especially caring about appearances). It used to be that when a man acted like this, people thought he was homosexual.

I used to find it sad that any man with some nice traits like dressing well or being able to cook was considered homosexual, but now I know he's metrosexual.

urotsukidoji

Any hentai that deals with girl getting raped by aliens with tentacles. It is named after a famous hentai film featuring tentacle rape.

One story claims that urotsukidoji became popular because it was illegal in Japan to show an uncensored penis. However, the law said nothing about uncensored tentacles. I'm not sure if this is true or not.
