Ex 1: The word "raped" is very context-sensitive, as it it can mean the horrendous act of sexual humiliation, or when someone is utterly destroyed in a game or competition.
Ex 2: "Conker's Bad Fur Day" has so many context-sensitive controls, that there's even an NPC in the beginning that explains the concept to the player.

Get the Context mug.Someone who fails to grasp how the larger overstructure in one's country is designed to reduce his ability to choose freely and explore the realm of possibility, or someone is totally subject and ignorant to what arguments belie the things being said in conversation.
Johnathan seriously thinks he's going to pick his next place to live from a map, after his city's economy has cycled downward due to policy changes. Even moreso, he has no clue what everybody is really doing for money and the utilities for the next two years. Johnathan is an example of a social context rube.
Example II:
John often finds nothing to think about when he enters the dog park because he finds people throwing random words at each other, and looking off into seemingly nowhere. In response, he just sort of sits there and when he talks, he makes footnotes about what people say, while failing to see the assumptions and arguments being put forth. As a consequence, he takes every assumption thrown at him, being ping-ponged back and forth.

Get the school context mug.The Context Dude: a dude who's for sure a 6 but registers as a 10 in the context of the 3's and 4's he's surrounded by. The context dude exists in several environments including the classroom, the workplace, and both small and large scale social settings. The context dude is good for many things such as motivating u to look presentable at work or even just making your Monday 8am more bearable. However, when you first encounter the context dude out of context, your entire world may begin to change as you genuinely start question your vision/taste/character/sanity and u might in fact never trust yourself again. So please, keep the context dude in context and don't ruin it for the rest of us. He is probly a good dude, but we like him better in context.
You can always pull a solid context dude at a wedding.
Any good context dudes in that 8am science class?
