Enoesque

Music which is similar to the later ambient music of British musician and all-round genius Brian Eno.

"Are Enoesque fripperies all this derivative band capable of?"

Flitterati

The liberal upper-middle-classes of urban England who flee the dubious delights of their own cities to buy property in fashionable rural regions abroad.

"The flitterati are going to have to choose a new destination now that the property bubble in rural France has burst."

nfo

The .nfo file included with a pirated software package. Those in the know will open this with MS Notepad, as it is actually a plain text file. The nfo usually contains a pirate "crew"'s ascii art logo at the top, which bears a resemblance to raw code to the uninitiated, and gets mangled into gibberish if opened in anything other than Notepad.

Usually associated with: ISO, crew, rar, crack, keygen, rip, reg, courier, 0-day.

Q: "I opened the rar from the 0-day. Many thanks to the courier & crew for this one; glad it's not a big ISO. But where's the serial number? Or do I have to use a keygen to reg this rip?"

A: "Just open up the nfo, newbie. The cereal is in there."

young fogey

Twenty-something male who apes the dress (tweed suits, waistcoats, glasses, hats etc) and intellectual tastes of the "old fogey" generation.

"This trendy fashion for young fogey-ism must be stopped immediately! If I see one more young man parading around in his grandad's suit and sounding like the only-begotten son of Stephen Fry and Morrissey I shall leave England forever!"
