Derived from "unfriending" someone on Facebook, to "unfriend" somebody in the real world is to stop acknowledging their presence. Instead of looking at them as you pass by, basically you just ignore them as if you had never met them.
Getting unfriended is especially weird when you know somebody by virtue of your participation in a group or team — which normally gives you at least a mild sense of camaraderie — but the person who unfriends you still insists on basically ignoring you.

It's official. JoBob unfriended me. I saw him in the hall yesterday and he didn't even acknowledge that we had ever met.

The rare awkward moment between two male acquaintances or friends when the parting gesture (handshake, fist bump, or bro hug) gets fumbled. This occurs most often either when one goes in for a bro hug and the other wants to shake hands, or when one goes for the traditional handshake and the other goes for some version of the urban handshake. The awkwardness usually lingers until your next parting, at which time you both slightly overcompensate for the previous confusion by first, deciding what form your parting will take, and second, executing it with decidedly more gusto than usual.
We totally botched our handshake last time.
Tots, brah, that was as ugly a braux pas as you're gonna see.
This time, it's a handshake, OK?
Sounds good. I was feeling a little weird about it, too.

Combination of "promo code" and "no more" (i.e., no mo'), describing the act of trying what you think is a valid promo code for an online purchase—but it fails at checkout. There just ain't no mo' code.

The mind game some advertisers play with you when you arrive at a website and the screen greys out, except for the box in the middle. It asks you to choose something like getting a newsletter, mortgage quote, or weight loss program. The grey box disables you from escaping from the page. The "Escape" key does not work, and there is no "x" button to quit the page.
If you say "Yes," you will be taken to whatever the advertiser wants.
But the "No" option is where you get greyboxed. It says something unpleasant, disturbing, and ridiculous. You have a sense that you don't want to click on the "No" because it feels wrong somehow. For example, it might say "No, I don't want to eat healthier," "No, I don't want to lose weight," or "No, I don't want to save money."
This creates a split inside of your mind. You do not want to click on the statement because you don't believe that statement, but clicking the "No" phrase is the only way out. Clicking the "No" phrase feels kind of like thinking it, but to answer "Yes" would be giving in to the advertiser and getting unnecessarily drawn away from what you were looking for in the first place.

Combination of "selfie" and "breath," describing the act of smelling your own breath by cupping your hand in front of your mouth while simultaneously exhaling and inhaling slowly. It is similar to a "selfie" because you are taking a snapshot of your self; in this case, your breath.
I woke up and took a breathie of my morning breath. Result? Disgusting: generally rude, with notes of horse manure.
