Hat-Trick

In hick country where there's no public transportation, you have no car, and your parents would rather go to Guantanamo Bay to be tortured than drive you anywhere...this is when you have breakfast, lunch, and dinner at 3 different restaurants (not at home) in different locations in the same day. An incredibly rare event worthy of taking your hat off and saluting.

Brent rarely gets to go out to eat, but today he had the Hat-Trick, going to Dunkin Donuts for breakfast, Burger King for lunch and the 99 restaurant for dinner.

rabbit pellets

What you get when you are partly constipated and strain with all your might while defecating on the toilet, so called because the tiny balls of feces in the bottom of the toilet look like rabbit dung.

"I strained for half an hour in that bathroom and all I was able to get were rabbit pellets."

Deadlock

A situation between 2 people where each is waiting for the other's task to finish, so nothing gets done. When you walk down a narrow hallway, and you go to one side so they can get by, then the other person goes to the other side, blocking you again...that is deadlock. Deadlock is also when you go shopping with your mom in a strip mall and you don't say where to meet each other, so you go looking in store A while your mom looks for you in store B, then you get the idea that she's looking in store B, so you go there at the same she decides to look in store A. Named after the computer processing term of the same name.

I always get deadlock when walking down the aisles at the convenience store, they are so narrow.

sorcerer's apprentice mode

Like Mickey Mouse's brooms, sorcerer's apprentice mode is a computer event that triggers over and over again on its own output. There was once a time on USENET (an internet message board system) where a program was written to cancel anonymously posted messages automatically. Problem was, the canceling message was also an anonymous message which caused the program to trigger on its own output.

This actually will happen if you try to downgrade a 2.0 firmware PSP and you have Norton running...the screen real estate gets used up faster and faster with the same darn error message. This is because it gets a false positive that the downgrader is PSPBrick, then Norton quarantines the "virus" which causes it to notice the freshly quarantined virus as a new virus that was just installed seconds later, and the process repeats.

some source (sorce) code

int main(){
printf("There's been a horrible error!);
main(); /* call the main function and eat more memory */
}
return 0

"I tried to copy the downgrader to my PSP, but Norton seems to have went into sorcerer's apprentice mode."

fake dress

A pair of trousers that looks, from a distance, like a dress. Usually worn by women aren't proud to be female, yet are deluded into thinking they are doing their part to look girly. Very unoriginal.

Uther:"What a beautiful dress you have on!"
Igraine:"Those are pants."
Uther:"Ho-hum, another unoriginal tomboy wearing the typical fake dress."

Christ on a stick

Referring to the event of the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ. He was nailed to a cross (standard Christian) or a stake (Jehovah's Witness).

Today's kids don't realize how friendly Jesus is because they've never seen Christ on a stick and they don't know how much he suffered.

witchcraft that's too cheap to meter

(From the nuclear power industry's false promise about electricity being so cheap as not being able to charge for it)

1. In a fantasy or western-european-Pagan setting, sorcerous things that use so little mana as to be insignificant and not get you persecuted if you use them. Dancing naked in the forest when no one's looking and no camera is rolling is witchcraft that's too cheap to meter.

2. In a broader sense, a deed in a gray area (of society) that's so small as to not even be noticed.

1. When Gandalf blew a ship made of smoke through a smoke ring it was a form of witchcraft that's too cheap to meter.
1. At 10:45 AM I took off all my clothes and went into the woods and did a thankful little jig when it didn't snow. I'm Christian, but it was witchcraft that's too cheap to meter.

2. Gina:"Are you downloading MP3 files again?"
Sean:"Yeah, don't worry, it's witchcraft that's too cheap to meter. You won't get caught."
2. In 1996 I took some toilet paper and stuffed it into the bathroom exhaust fan at my grandmother's house, she didn't mind because it was similar to witchcraft that was too cheap to meter.
