Potluck
A potluck is a dinner party in which guests bring dishes to share (see longer entry under potluck dinner). A secondary use is to refer to whatever food happens to be available, especially when offered to a guest. Another use also mentioned in dictionaries is "that which is tendered or available in certain circumstances or at a certain time" (the American Heritage Dictionary, 3rd edition, was consulted for these definitions).
The word potluck is often erroneously said to originate from the Native American term potlatch.
The word potluck dates from the sixteenth century, and the earliest written citation is 1592 - in England. ("That that pure sanguine complexion of yours may never be famisht with pot lucke", Thomas Nashe, see the Oxford English Dictionary for full reference). It is a portmanteau word formed from pot and luck.

A potluck dinner (Australia: bring-a-plate) is a gathering of people where each participant is expected to bring a dish of food to be shared among everyone in the group. These gatherings are often organized by churches, mosques and other community groups since they simplify the meal planning and distribute the costs among the participants. Smaller, more informal get-togethers may also occur in the form of potlucks.
There are no typical dishes in potlucks, the only commonality is that they are large enough to be shared among a good portion (but not necessarilly all) of the anticipated guests.
Such events can also go by the name "Jacob's join", in which each participant brings along as much food as he or she is likely to want to eat, but puts it into a common stock for the communal meal.
Another variation on potlucks is "rota" meals, short for rotation. With rota, rather than each person bringing a dish, participants take turns providing food for the entire group. For regular potlucks (e.g. daily, weekly or monthly) amongst a fairly consistent set of participants, this dramatically reduces the amount of preparation effort required. One popular and long-standing implementation of this approach can be found at Sirius, an intentional community in rural Massachusetts.
The purpose and benefits of potlucks include fun, socialising, good food, and building a healthy community. Many feel that some of the most honest and meaningful communication can occur over a dinner table.
The word potluck is sometimes erroneously thought to originate from the Native American custom of potlatch but in fact is of English origin.

Mikrofonija - Mislili su da je papak
Tip povučen, izoliran
Proveo je i to ljeto
Nikog nije zajebavo
Nikom tada nije smeto
U kvartu ga nisu znali
Mislili su da je papak
Sve dok nekom tipu nije
Nabio u zube lakat
Sad svi znaju ga, cijene ga
Sad svi znaju ga, pozdravljaju ga
Sad svi znaju ga, cijene ga
Sad svi znaju ga

Debeli Precjednik - Death or glory
You try to take us by surprise
But you're falling down
We all know you got wrong reasons
Your act is not to like anyone
You're just covering your frustration
Little corner in the media you got
And so you think that you're a preacher now
You don't listen, because you're hearing
Too loud yourself, your only friend
Back in the days it used to be so
"death or glory!"
so strong with dignity and heart
but now you bring your new philosophy
and it's so different story
who gave you the right to right the wrong
i know you're not so strong
why the fuck you come around if you don't like it
just to step on other people's toes?
If you don't like it – don't listen to it
I's just as simple as that, you hypocrite
Back in the days it used to be so
"death or glory!"
so strong with dignity and heart
but now you bring your new philosophy
and it's so different story
who gave you the right to right the wrong
i know you're not so strong
i know it's not too late...

Six Pack - Delfinov Let
zagledan u ponor slanog doma svog
delfin je sanjao kako leti svoj cudesni let
zaljubljen u nebo eto takvim se rodio
previse tih i skroman da bi njegova prica obisla svet
i uvek kad bi pomiislio kako krstari albatros
sekao je pucinu ko adrenalin sto sece mu krvotok
sirio je krila da dohvati bozji svod
al ta su krila bila dovoljna tek za pokoji kratak skok
neki dodu srecni pa tako i odu
onje pripao taboru drugom
i tog je dana smrknut okean
izneo telo skrhano tugom
stepam svoje rane dok provodim dane
izmedu zelja i istine
logike ponestaje rebus ne prestaje
da mi para vijuge
pravila ne vaze moj prijatelj kaze
da sve vise veruje
da cudne su sile podigle vile
da nas gresne razonode
ja stojim po strani i cekam da vreme nacrta put do sna
al kao delfina bukagije dubina
sve vise me vuku ka verdbi dna
da li sam to ja???????????
