followspam

Followspam is email or other notification generated by the action of following someone on a social network. Followspam happens when the account originating the follow action is used for spam, often a bambibot, SEObot or other bot utilizing an autofollow mechanism.

I'm so sick of all this followspam! The SEObots and bambibots are killing my inbox!

twam

Twitter spam; see also, life-vomit

1. Twitter accounts that serve no benefit other than linkspamming or self-promotion: "That girl's pretty twam-y."

2. Twitter follow requests from persons blithely following Robert Scoble's mass-adding formula for gaining "followers" on Twitter: "Scoble's mass-add formula encourages follow twam."

SEObot

An SEObot is a subset of spambots most often found as accounts on social networks, or as webcrawlers used to game page ranking mechanisms in search. The typical social network SEObot is either trying to game, or trying to sell SEO services, often mixed with other spam.

Enough with the SEObots already -- Twitter really needs to kill the autofollow mechanism.

dickhand

To touch public surfaces after touching one's private areas, perhaps by utilizing the facilities, perhaps by self-pleasuring, perhaps by pleasuring someone else, without having the civil nature to wash one's hands first.

That Google guy dickhands the bathroom door every time. Why can't that guy wash his damn hands?

wikidemic

Someone whose seemingly-omniscient, categorical knowledge of any and every subject is derived solely from superficial wanderings through Wikipedia.

Person A: "That guy in the front row knows everything! He makes Steve Jobs look like an infant. Why isn't HE giving the lecture?"

Person B: "Nah, that guy's bogus. Total wikidemic. He hasn't hit the books or had any real professional experience in his life. He's got a degree in Animal Husbandry or Basket Weaving or something."

chick deco

Chick deco is an eclectic design style incorporating chatchkis, knickknacks, materials and colors that no straight man would ever consider allowing in his home were he allowed the choice.

Overheard at party:

Dude1: Bro, did you get the nickel tour?
Dude2: Yeah bro! Did you check out those bathrooms? Or the "sun room?"
Dude1: Totally bro! 100% chick deco. You think she got his balls in the prenup?
