broken record

One who continually repeats the same statement with little variation, if any.

Derives directly from the (slightly inaccurate) term involving polyvinyl record albums, where such a "broken" record would repeatedly skip back a moment in what being played. (The term was inaccurate - usually such skippage was caused by debris on the disc.)

Hey, Bob is being a broken record about the salad bar. Somebody wanna hit him?

Dubya

1) The written representation of the letter W, as might be pronounced with a southern drawl.

2) The nickname for George W.Bush, the 43rd president of the United States of America. Derived from his accent - see 1, above.

If the 23rd letter of the alphabet is "dubya", you might be a redneck.

You keep telling yourself that

A response to a possibly false statement that one gives when the party being responded to is certainly deluding themselves. Roughly, "If you keep saying that, you might actually start to believe it".

"The price of gasoline is going to go down tomorrow," quipped Sue. Joe simply responded, "You keep telling yourself that."

R party

A gathering of any number of randoms that centers around the sharing of software. So called because oftentimes the software in question is pirated.

The term borrows heavily on otomatopeia - specifically the use of Arr.

Dude, I scored a cracked version of Photoshop at the R party!

dad gum

Modification of the term god damn. Comes from the midwest, as near as I can tell - my grandfather (an Illinois native) used to say it a lot.

Note the term is always used as an adjective, and NEVER as a verb. So you can have (day) a dad gum toll booth attendant, but you don't dad gum the toll booth attendant. The only exception to this rule is that "Dad gummit" is a suitable substitute for "goddammit"

Dad gummit! Where is the dad gum screwdriver?

Oh farck, I need a cup of coffee.
