Enabling 

Shielding a person from the consequences of a destructive behavior; Allowing a person's destructive behavior to persist by managing or minimizing the ill-effects of the behavior.

"Enabling" vs. "Empowering"

Enabling: supporting a person's behavior that (repeatedly/habitually) instigates a negative or destructive result

Empowering: supporting a person's ability or effort in a positive or progressive endeavor

Enabling can be as destructive as the behavior itself . . . a person enabling a destructive behavior is motivated by their need to do so and is gratified by reinforcing their superiority or control over that person; An "enabler" holds a person in an inferior state by denying them the motivation to change and therefore, the opportunity to grow.

enabling friend (EF) 

1) A friend who encourages extreme behaviour to 1) make themselves feel virtuous in comparison 2) make their companion feel as though everything they are doing is really not so bad after all. Both friends have to collude in the behaviour partnership for the relationship to work.

A shopaholic and an enabling friend will go shopping together. The enabling friend (EF) will buy two items and tell the shopaholic things like the real reason they buy is that they have excellent taste, love beautiful things and really deserve them because they work so hard and encourage the partner to buy ten things. The EF then reassures herself or himself that (s)he's very restrained and frugal compared to his or her companion.
The same applies to going drinking with someone who has an alcohol problem.

Emailing The Hop

A phrase used to tell your co-workers when you're heading to the crapper. Non-offensive and suited well for an office environment.

Also a more up to date way to send a fax to Cleveland.

Boss: Where's Hopkins? He's late for the meeting.

Pat: He'll be a little late. He's busy emailing The Hop.

meta-enabling 

Writing about lowbrow things in a highbrow way.

Occurs frequently on blogs and Tumblr.

Person 1: "I just wrote a Tumblr post about how the remix of R. Kelly's Ignition is best song of the decade."
Person 2: "Dude, you realize that you are meta-enabling?"
Person 1: "Yeah, but I need to generate pageviews without losing my high-end advertising — or my self-regard."

emailing Amsterdam

The process of trying to check your email from inside a moving vehicle using public wi-fi. This requires (1) finding an open wi-fi network, (2) logging in to the network using DHCP, and (3) frantically trying to check your email or surf the web before the signal is lost.

Typically done quickly while at a stop light mostly out of curiousity and boredom and hopefully without picking up a virus (not unlike something one my try while visiting a brothel in Amsterdam).

I don't think that geek can ride the bus home without emailing Amsterdam. He needs to unplug.
