Technological edging

Technological edging is the broad concept of intentionally delaying the practical use or possession of a technology in order to capitalize on potential new and better innovations of the technology. The term 'edging' brazenly refers to the sexual act of edging, meaning to delay orgasm in order to achieve a more satisfying ending.

Specifically, technological edging could mean holding out on buying a new smartphone or PC, even if you desperately need one, in order to capitalize on next year's advancements in consumer tech. In other words, people delay buying in order to not feel sad when the next best tech comes out, so they might as well wait for another year.

Technological edging can also apply to much bigger and broader ultimate goals, such as delaying future space exploration (on mars, the moon, etc.) in order to capitalize on the future impending innovations of science and technology. Such a move, in one's opinion, may be the wiser option.

Example 1
Friend 1: Omg the new Galaxy S20 looks dope! Are you gonna get it?

Friend 2: Nope, I'm practicing technological edging rn. I wanna delay getting a new phone so I won't complain about the next new phone being better than it. I already have the Galaxy S9 and it's still going well so.

Example 2
The postponement of Trump's plan for sending astronauts to the Moon might seem disappointing at first, but hey, at least scientists can technological edge it and benefit from potential new breakthroughs in their space tech.

Technology Tag

When two people constantly miss each others phone calls, emails or text messages.

Why are we playing Technology Tag today. I called you and missed your call. I texted you and missed your return text and emailed you and you have not responded.

Design and Technology

Design and Technology, or 'DT' is a subject that a student will take, thinking it will be useful, and a fun learning experience. Then they will meet their teacher, and they will wish they had never been born. Like the creepy gnome in your friend's garden, they will glare at you when you are not looking, and say dodgy things about you in front of the whole class. Design and Technology involves a lot of hard work, and strict deadlines, however most students do not survive long enough to discover this.

This is often due to suicide - as a result of taking the course, murder - of the teacher, or mass murder - homicide for the sake of the entire class.

"He committed suicide out of despair and insanity." "Must have been a Design and Technology student."

nigger technology

Usually the newest of newest technology in Niggerworld, is a spear, a stick, bone ornaments, rope necklace or a leaf skirt!

Nigger technology may have evolved since 2000 years, but the evolvement is pretty unnoticeable.

I was in africa, and I found the latest gadget of nigger technology. A broom! Old hag was trying to teach me how to use it, since it was the only broom in town!

I was in africa, and I found the latest gadget, and the newest of newest of nigger technology:

An old hag was trying to teach me how to use it, since it was the only broom in town!

Of course, nothing can beat whitey's laser guided missiles, rockets, chemistry, nano biology and nano technology.
