        An old term with a new meaning originating in Michigan and spreading rapidly.

        Though Quorum does have a literal definition and is used by those with a solid vocabulary, it has recently made its way into popular venacular as a synonym for anything awesome, cool, legit, etc.

        Quorum, as it is used now, is quite versitile: ranging anywhere from an adjective, to a noun, to an interjection.

        The limits are endless for quorum, and if you're quorum you'll say it too.

          In Mormonism, a group of men originally esetablished as equal authorities. They soon became rivals. Eventually the one of Twelve Apostles gained ascendancy. There was a brief [interim] during which the [Quorum] of the First Presidency, in the person of [Brigham Young], was the head [quorum]. After his death, the Quorum of Twelve Apostles gradually acquired supreme authority. Other [quorums] and presidencies, such as the First Quorum of the Seventy, the Quorum of the Lords Anointed, the Patriarch of the Church, the First Bishopric, and so on, gradually become junior officers. The Quorum of Twelve Apostles with its First Presidency [figurehead] became the senior officers. By this time, the quorums all managed the Mormon Church indistinguishable from a corporate enterprise such as [Amway], Avon, or other companies that rely on door-to-door salesmen and motivation rallies. Although there is no Quorum of Tithing, Tithing does play a very big role in the running of the Church, including who gets to be a member, who gets to go to the temple, and who gets promoted.
