FU Smiley

When a smiley emoticon, :) , is used in an email or instant message immediately after something insulting or otherwise putting you down.

Typically the FU Smiley is a way for the sender to downplay their attack... but really, instead of being the happy-go-lucky smiley face that it usually is... the FU Smiley is really saying "F$#K YOU!"

You failed to show up for the meeting again... this is the sixth time in the last month. I cc'd your boss on this email just so you can be held accountable for where you need improvement. :) (Boom - there's the FU Smiley)

Nerd Pouch

A case for a smartphone / cell phone that is worn visibly - typically on the belt.

The invention of smartphones required consumers to change their cell phone carrying habits since smartphones typically have an outward facing screen that needs to be protected. Nerd pouches were invented and quickly became the new fashion accessory for geeks, replacing the pocket protector. Now nerd pouches are everywhere, though mostly seen being worn proudly around the workplace, on belts with tucked in shirts.

Many smartphone users refuse to be nerdy, and conceal nerd pouches in their pockets or simply carry them around without attaching them to their clothing. Though, in extreme cases, there are the few... the proud... the real men and women who defy all nerdom... who throw caution to the wind and simply put their smartphones in their pockets / purses with no protection at all - not even a screen protector!

I'm never going to wear one of those nerd pouches... the last thing I want is to walk around with some kind of phone utility belt like Batman or something
