a promise, often made more than once over an extended period of time, which the person is either unwilling or unable to keep.

the phrase originated in november of 1999 when axl rose’s manager first officially announced the t-tle of the next guns n’ roses alb-m, expected to release sometime the following year (2000). the alb-m was not released in 2000, but the promise to release it “next year” was repeated then, as it has been subsequently repeated every year since, without result.

by 2003 the t-tle had become a joke in itself. that year punk band the offspring announced they would be using the t-tle for their own upcoming alb-m; a sort of protest against axl’s endless delays, which was commonly interpreted as a statement of “you snooze, you lose,” although none of the band members or their representatives ever turned that particular phrase. after being served with a cease-and-desist order from axl’s attorneys, the band released the alb-m as splinter.

chinese democracy, should it ever actually be released, would be the first alb-m from guns n’ roses since their 1991 release of use your illusion 1 and use your illusion 2, although many fans claim it would not actually be a guns n’ roses alb-m despite the use of the name because axl rose is the only original member still in the band.
after she caught tom in bed with another woman for the second time, he swore he would never cheat again, but lisa realized it was just chinese democracy and kicked his -ss to the curb.

danny’s father (not-so-affectionately known as ‘the drunk’) swore up and down that he wouldn’t miss danny’s last baseball game of the season like he had missed all the others, but even at ten years old danny was sharp enough to realize it was just chinese democracy, and his father would not be there.

“i’ve had enough of your chinese democracy! you’re never going to do it, so stop promising that you will!”
a synonym for something that is antic-p-ted and antic-p-ted for years to come, then finally when it comes out, people become ecstatic but then are disappointed when they find out they were waiting years and years for something that is complete sh-t.
i waited forever to graduate, but after i left school and ended up at a dead-end job flipping hamburgers to pay the rent of a small detroit apartment infested with fleas, i realized graduation was just chinese democracy.
a task that is never completed but is worked on for an eternity
d-mn you know that alb-m that axle rose has been working on for the past 12 years, its a f-ckin chinese democracy
something that the world needs that’s decades overdue and would be f-cking awesome should it ever happen…but probably wont due various reasons. examples include:

1. duh! democracy in red china. every time they seem to make progress, sh-t like big mama(commie internet censorship system) and tienamen square happen.

2. that one eponymous guns n’ roses alb-m that axl has been working on for like twenty years.

in hindsight, probably the absolute most (unintentionally?) genius alb-m t-tle ever.
what do ya figure will happen first? actual chinese democracy or a new gnr alb-m?
