to put one's smoke out in someone else's ice cream

1. To be much better at something than someone else
2. To diss someone so thoroughly that no comeback is possible

to put one's smoke out in someone else's ice cream:
1. Rickie Lee Jones puts her smoke out in Edie Brickell's ice cream (thanks to lexicondevil at The Onion AV Club)
2. That queen tried to diss my outfit, but then I totally put my smoke out in her ice cream.

frignore

To accept a friend request from someone on Facebook and then proceed to ignore them--no messages, no comments, no liking anything they post.

Usually done because it is easier to accept the request than to deal with the drama that might ensue if you don't (e.g. requests from family members and colleagues).

Not the same as being a friend whore.

I was so glad to reconnect with her on Facebook, but she's been totally frignoring me.

I thought this would be the beginning of a beautiful friendship, but instead I'm being frignored.

Glass harmonica

A musical instrument consisting of a number of glasses partially filled with water. The glasses are filled to different levels, hence the production of different notes when the player rubs their rims with a moistened finger. The sound thus produced has a haunting, otherwordly quality. It is most famously called for in the "Mad Scene" from the opera LUCIA DI LAMMERMOOR by Donizetti, although that part is now usually played by a transverse flute.

Opera fan A: What's your favourite recording of LUCIA?
Opera fan b: The one with Beverly Sills, because it uses the original scoring for glass harmonica.
