    good 3 is a good detonator

    Beer :
    the reason I get up in the morning and the reason I pass out at night.

    Proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.


    A magic potion used to make people of the opposite look better
    She had no teeth and a 3 inch diameter goiter on the side of her bearded face, but after a 12 pack of beer I didn't even notice.

    I'm so drunk I forgot my life sucks

    My mother told me that beer is my enemy, but Jesus told me to love my enemy

    A potion created by the devil and consumed by man. Causes a misconstrued perception of reality and loss of short term memory. Also, makes that 300 pound fat bitch in the corner with hairy pits look like a good idea.
    Devil: Want a beer, and a 300 pound fat bitch with hairy pits?
    Man: Why yes, yes I do


    The cause and solution to all of lifes problems.
    Cause: Hey man, im sorry that i fucked your wife, and crashed your car and ate all of your pizza and pissed on your dog.

    Solution: But, i can go pick you up some beer tonight, and we can hang out at my place.

    #To put it simply: It'll getcha drunk!

    Premature Articulation

    Premature Articulation is the act of speaking/bragging too soon before all the facts are in, the game is over, etc.

    Dude, I totally jinxed the Cardinals by blathering all over Facebook about how they were kicking ass, then they lost the game. For the first time since high school, I experienced premature articulation!

    Huswife.

    "A huswife is a cloth roll which contains a woman's tools, such as needles and scissors, and is similar to rolls used for jewely or toiletries today." link

    You'll want to know this word when you're reading Volume 2 of Jane Austen's "Emma."

    (And you will be reading "Emma" if it's the only book that comes preloaded on your fancy new Sony smartphone...)

    I need help with this one. I read it in the NY Times this morning about the stock market, but dictionary . com does not make it clear:

    denouement,

    denouement


    or dénouement



    noun 1. the final resolution of the intricacies of a plot, as of a drama or novel.

    2. the place in the plot at which this occurs.

    3. the outcome or resolution of a doubtful series of occurrences.

    Origin of denouement 1745-1755

    1745-55; < French: literally, an untying, equivalent to dénouer to untie, Old French desnoer (des- de- + noer to knot < Latin nōdāre, derivative of nōdus knot) + -ment -ment


    Synonyms

    See more synonyms on Thesaurus.com
    3. solution, conclusion, end, upshot.
