refurb

Something which has been refurbished and resold at a discount, like a computer or a plasma tv.

I was too cheap to waste all my money on a brand-new laptop, so I picked up a refurb online instead.

thundersleet

A rare weather event combining freezing rain and lightning, similar to thundersnow.

For the first big storm of the spring we've gotten a crazy mix of snow, sleet, freezing rain, thunder and lightning; it's either a freak thundersleet phenomenon or a sign of the Snowpocalypse!

concerning

Traditional definition: involving or referencing something or someone.

Current definition: to be a cause for concern.

Traditional: Myra and her mom had a discussion concerning her grades at school.

Current: Myra's low grades are concerning. She'd better talk to her mom about getting a tutor.

today years old

A fancy way of saying that you just did or learned something for the first time today.

I was today years old when I found out that it's called duck tape and not duct tape.

He finally lost his virginity when he was today years old.

YMMVAPD

(Also YMMV, APD) Your mileage may vary, and probably does. A form of ymmv emphasizing an expected difference of opinion.

They say that April is the cruelest month, but I think it's actually February. YMMVAPD.

bus is leaving

I'm ready to blow this taco stand. So you either drive with me now, or find another ride.

Yo, playa, bus is leaving. Just get her digits and get in the car.

Colonial spring

A bout of warm, springlike weather toward the end of winter; the opposite of an Indian summer.

I think we ought to dub this period of unseasonably warm weather a 'Colonial spring' because:

1) It wasn't invited and it's not supposed to be here,
2) It seems like a blessing at first, but you suspect a global calamity may be lurking,
3) Its 'gifts' are often laden with nasty surprises like illness and flash flooding, and
4) Things could turn ugly again really quickly, without warning, despite assurances to the contrary.
