Okay, the real name of this thread should be "help Spider-Man get to 300 posts so I can get my avatar" thread; but the other one sounded better.

Now, even though I think this has been done before, play along anyway! :up:

I'll start us off:

Cone·zone [kōnzōne]
noun

1. A state of complete hilarity: possibly to the point of exhaustion.
2. An area where Conan O'Brien is.
3. The central part of the stage located on the set of "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" (also known as "the laugh zone").

Sentance: "Hey, the other day; I was smoking some weed. Anyway, I saw this cat chasing it's tail, and I was so high, I was almost in the conezone"

:up:

Christianite

A sensible arguement based upon purely rationnal grounds that instantly shuts up a christian conservative.

Example: When a christian conservative says that gays and lesbians are evil sinners that will burn in hell for the rest of eternity, simply tell him that homosexuals are merely consenting adults that have consentual sex with other consenting adults, and that it is absolutely impossible to morally condemn their actions since A) they're adults, therefore they have reached the age of consent, and B) they are engaging in CONSENTUAL sexual acts.

NOTE: Christianite is only effective on reasonable human beings. Republicans and members of the Christian Coalition are immune due to a fundamental lack of humanity and spirituality. :p ;)
