The word "Indigenous". What does it mean according to the dictionary? (I've misplaced mine.) Compare that meaning to what our aboriginals say they are. How do the 2 words compare? I heard years ago that one does not mean the other, but cannot check myself.

Someone who's rather on the thin side and pretty light, but very physically strong? It's used to describe a guy, if that helps.

The kids obvioulsy pictured him as a monster. Even though he constantly gave them presents....

I'm trying to find a funny/clever + flirty way of saying something. Basically, my friend Anna just told me through text message that I should get a Santa Hat for my dog ...I replied by telling her she is mean...She texted back and said "it would be so cute!" So, I am trying to make fun of her by saying something like "yeah I bet you'd tie your dog to a sledge like a moose, tortures it with a whip, thinking it's all cute and all blalala...." Boys and girls, my question is how do I transform the above sentence into a playful, funny flirty language? Please help me refine it if necessary. I greatly appreciate it.

whats it called (its like a human characteristic and its bad) like if (in the martian chronicles for example) some one thinks that the martians are going to kill him, so he runs away and they're chasing him and he shoots his gun at them and kills some of them but when he finds out that they just want to give him land, he pretends all that never happened. I'm talking about sam parkhill in November 2005: The off season of the martian chronicles. But what word could i describe that behavior as?
