Are there any words/phrases you know whose real meaning has been obscured by pop culture/commercial references?

For example, men in black was a term popular with conspiracy theorists to refer to shady government agents who investigate 'alien reports'. But nowadays people think it's just a Will Smith movie. Also, there's a popular chain of hotels in Asia called Shangri-La, and most people I know associate that name with the hotel chain, instead of the James Hilton novel.

What's your favorite episode of South Park?

If you don't like South Park, what the hell is wrong with you?! ;)

hey tqc.

I have about $1000 worth of narcotics.
i.e. oxycotton, vicodin .

What should I do with it all? 

Do you drive after drinking 4+ beverages?
Do you know anyone that does?
Is driving after smoking weed just as bad as driving after drinking? Why/why not.

How the fuck do I get people in my family to realize they can't drink and drive?

I've been trying to find new jewelry for my septum piercing for a while now and finally found what I wanted. The 16g is out of stock, however they have 15g. First off, what the hell is a 15 gauge? And secondly, should I go for it and not wait for the 16 to come in stock? It's hand-carved so the sizes would vary slightly anyway.

TQC, can you suggest some good freeware that will allow me to add a watermark to some pictures I took at a concert tonight? I only have MSPaint so a) I don't want to just have some tacky plain color with my name and b) i have 200+ pics to do!

What's the coolest thing that's ever happened to you at a gig, aside from meet and greets??
Tonight, Jake Owen took my camera from me and snapped a picture of us, and then did a myspace pic of himself. Too awesome!

If you wanted to make a reality show that was opposite of the Biggest Loser, where 12 waify models gain a lot of weight, what would you name this program?

My little one is turning 2 next Saturday. We're going out to eat with my family & my bff, and we'll have cake after dinner. I just started my new job yesterday, and I'll only have one day's work on this Thursday's paycheck. It'll be about $50, and I plan on spending all of that on her birthday. I don't have any bills or anything.

What modern-day slang should we lock up and bury?

What outdated slang should we bring back?

Does anyone else think that the rind of some cheeses is tastier than the actual cheese? Such as this Swiss I am de-waxing for consumption. I don't mean eating the wax...I mean that thickened chewy part on the outside, or the white powdery part of Brie, et cetera.

Has anyone switched from Ambien to Ambien CR because of waking up in the middle of the night? How does Ambien CR work for you? Is it better than Ambien? I'm on Ambien which is great for falling asleep, but I often wake up just 2-3 hours later so I want try CR. Please share any experiences if you have any! Thanks.

So ... I'm being kicked out of college next week, what do you think is the best way to tell my mother this, TQC? I can't do it in person so my options are phone or email. I'm assuming email is not really acceptable in this situation, but it'd be easier. :/

If you don't care, what was the last thing you bought?

will you tell me something that just BLEW your mind when you found out?

(ex. beer can in a british accent is the same as bacon in a jamaican accent!)
