Urbexing

It's a shortened form and vowel of "Urban Exploration". It is the act of going to and exploring places that are not normally visited or often even accessible to the general public. Such places might include (but not be limited to) abandoned factories, abandoned or derelict buildings, unused nuclear bunkers, old Forts/Military buildings, disused rail yards etc. The REAL urbexer will NOT break in to these places, in fact it's considered VERY bad form. But if a fence happens to be broken down and access can be obtained without causing any damage, then that's considered fair game. VANDALISM and GRAFFITI are NOT allowed, and any rubbish (e.g. food wrappers/bottles) would be taken away after the visit. Photos are often taken just to prove you have been there. Trophies if you will. Due to the types of places that might be visited, urbexing CAN be dangerous and therefor it's a good idea to let someone know where you have gone and your ETA back afterwards so they can raise the alarm if you don't return.

Where have you been today ?

I went Urbexing with friends to Grain Fort. It's a great shame they let Napoleonic Forts like that just rot away.

McBoatfacing

The act of making the critical mistake of letting "the internet" decide something, e.g. in an online poll.

There was an online poll to name a brand new research ship. The vote ended up with the name Boaty McBoatface winning. In the end, the name "Sir David Attenborough" was used but one of the robotic submarines onboard WAS named Boaty McBoatface as a compromise !

I thought of maybe asking my Facebook friends to choose names for the kittens, but that could be McBoatfacing.

squeakie

To Squeak - To whine continuously about Arty (Artillery) in the MMO (Mass Multiplayer Online game) World of Tanks.
A Squeakie - A person who squeaks a lot.
A Leaky Squeakie - Someone who actualy cries or dribbles whilst Squeaking :-P

I wish squeakies wouldn't do it in battle. It's so sad and very offputting.

T-Girl

T-Girl (short for Trans-Girl) is the generally accepted "polite" way of referring to Transgendered or Transsexual Girls. It is a general term that covers a wide range of people; Cross Dressers, Transvestites and Pre or Post Op Transsexuals may all be referred to as T-Girls without too much risk of offending anyone. Many people however, are not bothered about causing offense to other people, and may refer to such people in a derogatory fashion using words or phrases such as Shemale, Tranny, He-She or Chick with a Dick.

Most T-Girls would not be offended as being described being a T-Girl, although it should be pointed out that many Post-Op Transsexuals would probably prefer to simply be referred to as Girls.

Note: The terms Pre-OP and Post-Op refer to before or after a Transsexual may have Gender Reassignment Surgery.

That Night Club is where all the T-Girls go.
