humorous and poorly written poetry
a belief or a belief system held by an authority who proclaims it to be undeniably true and expects immediate acceptance
to speak in an absolute manner and expecting everyone to believe it without question
a person who overly emphasizes minor details or rules, often displaying a pretentious or excessive concern for academic correctness
the practice of being overly focused on minor details, formal rules, or showing off academic knowledge in an unnecessary way
a piece of electrical equipment, often consisting of more than two light sources, that is hung from the ceiling
expressed clearly and briefly, without losing the main points
juicy and full of flavor
to surrender to a superior force or influence
to allow someone to leave the military service, especially when a war ends
to completely destroy or to knock down a building or another structure
to lower the rank or position of someone
a sudden and short sound, word or phrase, uttered to express anger, excitement, etc.
to clear someone's name of accusations and prove their innocence
