Something that can get in the way of doing what’s right, what needs to be done or it can make a person spend excessive energy on worrying about what doesn’t
need that much attention or care; often intertwined with ones
ego &
pride.

A main character in a piece of
performing art. Examples include: In opera, any singer with a primary part; in ballet, a soloist or pair of soloists.
They are usually overpaid when compared to the exceeding amount of work put in by the chorus of an opera. Sure theyve got talent since they are singing in a freaking opera by themselves, but that is their job. Chorus members usually have other jobs outside of the opera.
There is also
undue credit in many circumstances. A member of a chorus was once selected for a principle part. Suddenly she thought she was hot shit because she said 2 lines of libretto alone. She got a photo in the
Playbill and a short bio. The rest of the choristers got their name in once and 100 dollar check at the end of the show.
Example:
"Hmm. Your
B flat was a little TOO flat Id say, you should practice more."
MY INWARD RESPONSE---
"You know what Gloria, Ive waited a month to tell you this, but your shit doesnt stink any less than mine. You couldnt
hit a B flat even if you were lipsynching you turkey-necked
fatball. You need to be a fucking team player because the rest of the chorus applauds for all the principles at curtain call, even you. BITCH"
MY REAL RESPONSE---
"Yea Im still working on that"

n., positive
when there are too many bad students and there is only one principled person, the
Principle.
a high number of
brats, thugs, haters are more numerous and negative, but the
principle is positive. he leads by example and is good and helpful.
to be above the crowd, yet it is
not important what other people think about you.
Example:
Easy Slick - you man,
i'm cut'n class again today, i dont need this stuff!
Principle - you should be in school and going to class and learning something instead of just get'n your kicks. . . . and whats with the easy slick,
you're white!

The Gillis Principle outlines the proportionality between the amounts of mountain dew and marijuana that would kill an average human.
Mathematically, 1 Gillis (Gi) is the unit of either substance (Marijuana or Mountain Dew) that would kill a human when consumed within an hour. Both substances have calculated conversion rates based on experimental data.
Mountain Dew: 8823mg Caffeine = ~173 cans = 61L = 1Gi/Hour
Marijuana: 68000g THC =
971 000 Joints = 1Gi/Hour
It can be concluded using
the Gillis Principle that Mountain Dew has a far higher lethality rate than Marijuana.
Example:
Friend 1: "Hey, did you hear? Jared
smoked himself to death last night."
Friend 2: "Yeah that must've been a Gillis-ton of weed!"
Friend 1: "Using
the Gillis Principle, that was like
971 000 Joints."
