black dollar

Noun. The time period around 1986 where Steve Jobs stated that he would accept a salary of only one dollar per year in order to be reassigned the career as CEO of apple.
Origin: After a dream my friend had about something called the black dollar, I happened to find a biography of Steve Jobs, which then reminded me of the dream, and this definition is a pun on that dream.

The black dollar was an interesting time period in Steve Job's life.

shaf

A constant continuous sound or echo, especially in an audio chat or phone system.

The british person caused a shaf on the line.
The shaf wouldn't stop on the phone line, so the admins had to reset the system.

Tech support syndrome

When an issue in a computer seems to be fixed when you are on the phone with tech support, but as soon as you are off the phone, the issue comes back full fledged.

Britney: Is your computer fixed?
Alyssa: No, its acting weird still.
Britteny: Wasn't it working when you were on the phone with John before today?
Alyssa: Yes, but its not working anymore. It stopped working as soon as we hung up.
Britteny: I guess your computer has tech support syndrome.
Alyssa: Yeah.
