    Can someone define salient? Does it have anything to do with sex? If not, don't bother.

    Definitions of salient

    Salient, from the Latin verb salire "to leap," was originally used in English to refer to leaping animals such as a frog or deer and may still be used this way. Often, however, it is used in math or geography to mean protruding. A salient angle juts outward rather than inward.

    1) adj. having a quality that thrusts itself into attention
    “Those Wigwam pics are giving me this salient bulge in my sweatpants. BRB, JO.”

    Figuratively, it means noticeable or prominent. When giving an argument, make your most salient points at the beginning or the end.

    “TL;DR post, though your most salient point was Jake Browning sucks.”
    I'm chintrigued at the thought of you having a bulge.

    "Salient" is the present participle of "saliate", as in "she saliated my balls while we were in a 69. Afterwards, my balls were, of course, salient."

    You don't develop this level of vocabulary on the Rez. That's private school shit.

    You're welcome @Swaye !

    Also just glad to know salient IS sexual, and the bored chick schooled me. Lady wood. Who knew that was real?
