wikiplagiarism

For work in a paper or publication, using Wikipedia as the source of information that you don't give credit to; AND the information happens to be incorrect, adding insult to injury.

Bob's paper got an 'F' for blatant plagiarism. He lifted most of it from Wikipedia and assumed it was correct. The professor said it was the worst wikiplagiarism she'd seen in a long time.

silicon footprint

The amount of server space your files take up on a shared network, too much of which can cost your company excess storage fees or cause "insufficient space" error messages.

The IT dept. is charging us an arm and a leg for excess file storage above the set maximum allowance per user. We need to reduce our silicon footprint!

Mother-In-Lawthra

An expression used by the groom-to-be's side of the family during a wedding planning to describe the bride's control-freak of a mother. If the bride is "Bridezilla," then her mother is "Mother-In-Lawthra" (a reference to Godzilla and Mothra of the old Japanese monster movies).

Hey, dude, you're lucky your fianceé isn't turning into a bridezilla.

True, but her mother's already a Mother-In-Lawthra.

That is SO going on Facebook!

The 21st century equivalent of calling something a "Kodak moment." It's not only good enough to photograph, but you are compelled upload it to your wall on Facebook for all to see.

"Look! That poodle is doing the Macarena!"

"That is SO going on Facebook!" (pointing smartphone and clicking away)

e-solation

The deliberate decision to go on vacation without a laptop computer, no smart phone, and no contact whatsoever with the cyber-world; or to take a break from such contact.

"I can't wait to go on our camping trip!"
"Can you survive roughing it in the middle of nowhere without tweeting or posting on Facebook?"
"You bet! I'm gonna enjoy my e-solation!"
