short for Guantanamo Bay
scary place where suspected "enemy combatants" are taken and then interrogated in order to determine whether they are terrorists or not.
this area is lawless; any fucking thing can happen. do the geneva conventions apply here? who knows?
a large percentage of detainees held are released much much later and labelled to be completely innocent. seems like they take just anybody.

for some reason, the clothes nick berg was wearing when he was decapitated are the uniforms from gitmo.

impossibly good-looking emokid. He is known most commonly as the frontman for Bright Eyes, but he has also fronted his later project Desaparecidos.
This guy is a genius, often tagged as a wunderkind (he started recording at 14) and channels his emotions into powerful lyrics emokidettes can relate to.
Actually, he is still sorta a kid. I went to a show of his when he was way younger and he was so tiny and kid-like it shocked me. I haven't seen him recently (he's gone too mainstream for my wallet) so hopefully he had finally hit puberty and start growing up.
If you like Bright Eyes, you will love Cursive, front by a member of Conor's former band Commander Venus Tim Kasher. Similar music, except I prefer Cursive

One thing that sets Conor apart from other musicians is his amazing voice. His voice wavers when he sings. It reconnects people to memories of crying and painful emotions and whatnot so after a few painful notes, you will be real fucking depressed. Go to one of his shows and you can feel the depression rolling off the crowd. No moshing here, kiddos, just crying.

the word was coined around the 70s (way before I was born) during the days when people discarded all syllables but the last. (pizza = 'za, matches = 'ches... seems like only 'zine survived.)
So it's basically a crudely made magazine.
Mostly punk/poetic/indie/misunderstood/lost/artsy/goth/loner/whatever teenagers do it now.
They write/draw whatever they want on pieces of paper, photocopy, staple, and sell them for anywhere from a few dimes to a few bucks. Many are also free.
If you buy a zine for over $2, you got ripped.

In my opinion, if you charge more than a dollar, you suck. You've more than broken even, you blood sucking capitalist.
