stateist

An American who thinks his state is better than any other one.

God, those Massholes keep fucking up New Hampshire by buying all the lake property and driving like retards. I'm such a stateist.

vgchartz

A website that shows sales data for all of the next-gen consoles. Also includes forums where the most rabid fanboys to be found anywhere on the internet hang out.

Man, I was on vgchartz, and all I did was post one thread asking why the Wii was selling so much better than PS3, and I got torn apart by Sony fanboys!

glondoor

If you don't feel like looking for a car online, Glondoor is the guy you get to fight the used-car dealers in a stone-circle death match to make sure you don't get ripped off.

I was going to pay $6000 for a lemon at that dealership until Glondoor ripped the guy's face off. Boy was I relieved.

Mac tax

The extra money that you pay when buying a Mac as a opposed to a computer with the same specs from another manufacturer. Some people consider the Mac tax to be a good trade-off, others do not.

"My new iMac was 1500 bucks."
"WTF, why'd you pay the Mac tax, you could've gotten a Dell for like half that."
"Um... Because now I have an operating system that works, from a company that doesn't have monkeys for tech support?"

GNU/Linux

What the really hardcore, Richard Stallman-worshipping open-source nerds call Linux.

Uber-nerd: "What operating system you using?"
Nerd: "Linux, of course."
Uber-nerd: "DON'T CALL IT LINUX, IT'S GNU/LINUX, LINUX IS JUST THE KERNEL THAT USES THE GNU-LICENSED blah blah blah..."
*Nerd punches uber-nerd in face*
Nerd: "Shut up."

Battle Without Honor or Humanity

Possibly one of, if not the most badass song ever. You know: it's the one in the Kill Bill movies. If you listen to it on your iPod, it makes any situation infinitely cooler.

I had to wait in line at the grocery store, so I set my iPod to Battle Without Honor or Humanity and imagined myself getting in a sword fight with the old lady in front of me.

etherkiller

Device for instantly killing computer equipment: an Ethernet jack on one side, spliced to a power cord on the other end. When plugged into an internet port, floods the computer with electricity, thus destroying it. Invented by the BOFH (Bastard Operator From Hell) from Simon Travaglia.

The IT guy was pissed off about being fired, so he took his etherkiller from router to router, frying them.
