Celestial Steed

A mount in the game World of Warcraft, purchasable with real world currency which has split the playerbase. One side condemning it saying its another milestone towards the end of WoW as we know it. The other oblivious to corperate marketing thinking its the best idea ever since sliced bread believing that through buying it their character will become unique, only to find that everyone else and their mum had the same idea and half their server's running around with one.

Player1 - Man, at the rate of this stunts success we'l be seeing gear and gold for sale within the year.

Player2 - Nonsense! With this service i'le finally be able to stand out from the crowd in dalaran!.

Ricer

An overused slur often used in completly wrong context. Originally a ricer was an aftermarket modified east-asian import with no performance modifacations to make the car look faster than what it actually was. This then moved onto a connotation associated with drivers of said cars being young, obnoxious, going for the "Fast & the furious look" and generally just in denial of the limitations of their car.

In recent years 'Ricer' is simply used to bash any asian vehicle, even stock and performance modified variants, usually by domestic & muscle car fan boys who suffer from the latter of the ricer connotation when their rides get outperformed by stock import.

*Looking at the performance figures of a GTR*

Import hater: 'How the hell is that ricer able to reach 0-60 in under 4 seconds?'

Myself: 'Its a stock car you fuckwit'
