Glib,adj. Too articulate for the moral well-being of those more malleable than oneself.
Idiom,n. The means by which a particular social group makes itself incomprehensible to others.
Koran,n. Barbarous document which incites Muslims to periodic frenzies of uncontrolled lust for Christian blood. Across its benighted pages crawl such alien, blasphemous figures as Adam, Abraham, Isaac, Moses, Jacob and Jesus; the whole thing would thus be quite ludicrous to the properly Christian mind even if it were not also littered with such grotesque exhortations as "Thou shalt not kill".
No-man's-land,n. The hospitable zone of an international disagreement, from which few return even though thousands go in.
Sarcasm,n. The lowest form of wit, as understood by those who lack the wit to use it.
