The art of spilling a beverage, such as coffee, over sensitive electronics (computer and it's peripherals, phones, etc).

The Dalgetty score is on scale 0-100 where 100 is the true Dalgetty (0 is basically a wussy spilling water on a table). The score goes up with the type of beverage (attention to temperature, density, stickiness, how easy it is to clean up), monetary value of the equipment, state of hardware (best if ruined beyond repair), and age of the damaged property (best if spoilage occurs during unboxing). Other factors may influence the score as well, such as accidents that happen during an important meeting, or severity of consequences.

Daggettry 

The act of entering a political race with the intention of swaying the vote towards another canidate. The word was coined by Jim Gearheart, a radio talk show host on NJ101.5 in NJ, after an Independent candidate named Chris Daggett ran for governor of New Jersey and was believed to have been backed by the Democratic Party in order to steal votes from the Rebublican canidate.
In the future, Independent canidates for political office are likely to be accused of daggettry if they have any ties to a major political party.
