extended loan

A method of semi-permanently giving something away to someone while reserving your right to ask for it back later if you change your mind.

I gave my first mp3 player to Jim on extended loan, but since my new mp3 player got stolen, I was able to ask for the old one back.

Fifth World

The internet. So called because it is the 'electronic frontier' not quite under the jurisdiction of any one government, where everyone browses at their own risk and antivirus software is a must.

There are no rules in the Fifth World, netizen.

jump drive

A hypothetical propulsion technology that allows a vehicle to teleport instantaneously via an artificially-created wormhole.

I bought a jump drive for my car so I could get to work in five minutes.

middlicious

(adj.) Combination of the words "middle" and "delicious": food which is neither extraordinarily tasty nor truly awful, but simply common, average, or adequate-quality cuisine. Often filling and good enough to eat if you're hungry, but you'd pass it up for *real* food.

Most store-bought pizza isn't superb, just middlicious. Believe me, I've had worse delivered.

Emo grunt

The voiced, gutteral grunt made by someone (typically a preteen child) used to express indignation, or frustration.

Whenever Christie's 11-year-old daughter doesn't get her way, she immediately emo grunts and stomps her foot, as though that's gonna change Christie's decision one bit. Well, sometimes it does.

Fourth World

Those ethnic groups which reside in the jurisdiction of recognized nations rather than having an independent state of their own. Fourth-world peoples are excluded from positions of power in those governments, and frequently have de facto if not de jure status as second-class citizens or worse.

The Palestinians, Kurds, and Roma are all examples of members of the Fourth World.

bikini flail

(usually plural, ie bikini flails)

The chest of a very well-endowed and skimpily dressed woman, who looks like she could slap you unconscious with them.

I asked Maureen for a closer look at her rack, but she knocked me out with her bikini flails.
