Do not fret, poor confused souls. Here is a quick listing of some of the words and acronyms (and their intended meaning) you may have found foreign to your minds…
A
Archinerd: specifically refers to ONE person — who passionately pursues the intellectual knowledge of Architecture, both professionally and as a pastime, rather than indulging in normal social activities. (Very, very important note: Livee is in a romantic relationship with the Archinerd, if you have not already realized.)
Architorture: the ‘torture’ inflicted upon a person (usually an architecture student) credited to the indulgence or education of Architecture. This may come in the form of sleepless nights, eventless Friday nights, extreme mental distress, agony, unbearable physical pain (eg: migraines, model cuts, walking into trees out of sleepiness), weight-loss/gain, and sometimes, cannibalism*.
The only weird thing about this form of torture: ‘tortured people’ always come back for more.
B
bookie: (noun)
1. a friend of Livee and a booklover. eg: “I know lots of bookies.” (Note: If you are a booklover but not Livee’s friend, you are NOT a bookie.)
2. a person who takes bets, or is involved in some sort of gambling/bets exchange. eg: “I don’t know anyone who is a bookie.”
C
cannibalism: state of confusion and extreme koinkness*, usually as a last resort. (Yes, Livee do eat people in this particular state)
