John Default

When in a game, a paid skin is so overused that it is no longer a signifier of a baseline of skill. Usually this happens due to either a skin's immense popularity, or the skin being commonly offered compared to other options.

Comes from when The Reaper in Fortnite was used by a third of every lobby, leading to no indication of skill when spotted, analogous to seeing a default.
"You see that guy? He was dog water and was using the John Wick."

"Yea, he was a real John Default."

To remove a 'friendship' from facebook due to having either accidentily adding him/her as a friend or actually adding them and reconsidering later.
"Yeah, there was this guy in my network who added me. I thought he looked ok, but his updates were really cramping my news feed, so I had to deface him."

"I went on a date with a girl I met a week before and like the day after our date she changed her status to 'in a relationship.' I defaced her."

to remove gay oriented material from a computer or home
rearrange so that gay material is out of easy access
My straight friend wanted to use my computer so I had to defag any gay porn and gay links from my hard drive.

Before my family came over for the Holidays I defagged the entire house of porno including videos and magazines

defactorce 

NOUN: a defacto divorce. Coined to fill a gap in the lexicon where defacto couples had to use the term 'break-up', which did not imply the full weight of the word 'divorce', despite the experiences being almost entirely identical.
Now that Adam and I are going through a defactorce, we have to open separate bank accounts and decide who gets to keep which whitegoods, not to mention custody of the cat.

Best friend...by default 

When someone tells you you're their best friend but you are painfully aware you're their ONLY friend.
Chum: "you're my best friend"
Lee: "yeah! Best friend...by default!!"

Default World 

A slang term used by people who have been to Burning Man (Burners) to describe the world outside of the Burn. The outside world is said to be 'default' because it's viewed as the version provided in lieu of a world one would have chosen if given the option. See also "cop out".
The gift economy, radical self-reliance and self-expression, art cars, and unpredictable day-to-day adventures of Black Rock City make me never want to return to the Default World.
