An amusing term which appears so ubiquitously in various film adaptations of Jane Austin novels that it really should enter the public lexicon as a bit of tounge-in-cheek banter mocking the stilted, formal manner of speech common during the Regency period.

An obvious melding of the words fortunate + unforseen + circumstance.
This word originated as a forcumstantial product of a slip of the tounge by a friend attempting to say "Fortunate unforseen circumstance".

v.
Kind of like being punk'd, only by a bunch of humorless rich white old guys with some kind of sinister geopolitical master plan.
Term reffers to the Machiavellian bait-and-switch game played by the Bush neocons whereby the 9/11 attacks were linked to Iraq.
The term 'Pearl Harbored' itself alludes to a comment made by the neocon think-tank PNAC in their manifesto 'Rebuilding America's Defenses', which suggests that nothing less than "A new Pearl Harbor" would be nessecary to garner support for any further actions in Iraq.
This was written well before the tragic events of 9/11.
Author's note: I'm not accusing the Bush administration of actually carrying out 9/11 to establish a pretext for war that the public would support. I merely think this is a very chilling coincidence.

"The PNAC website should be required reading for all Americans who supported the war, so they can learn how they got totally Pearl Harbored"
"Duuude, you still think things are going great in Iraq?
You got totally Pearl Harbored by those PNAC fuckers"

n. or adj An annoying female, usually a member of the species prepis generalis. Characterized by their piercing, high-pitched giggling.

The hee hee girl is a highly flighty, social creature that tends to travel in packs, or gaggles. Their habitat of choice will be the shopping mall, high school hallway, nightclub or other socially-charged environment. They tend to adorn themselves with rather dull yet rarified plumage with prominant brand markings, which they procure at great cost. This showy display of disposable wealth serves as a symbol of status based on the very banal and superficial standards of their kind.
Because she has adapted to wasting all her energy on the cultivation of her outward appearance with little time devoted to the inner life of the mind, the hee hee girl is among the least intelligent and most simplistic of all the human organisms, and should generally be avoided.
alternate spelling/prnounciation: tee hee girl
