Slyxdesia 

A Dyslexic way to spell and say, Dyslexia.
My friend Chris is fighting the negative stereotype that rednecks have of dyslexics, so we make light of his Dyslexia by calling it Slyxdesia. We had half of northeastern California calling it that by the time I moved away.

spam riot 

The horrific emaelstrom that ensues after a spammer discovers that some careless email newsletter sender has left his email server open, allowing the spammer to send an offensive message to all the newsletter's subscribers, making it appear that the offensive message is from the newsletter.

Since most of the subscribers were wondering how the heck they got on the "newsletter" to begin with, their automatic reaction to the offensive message is to reply with rude, and sometimes threatening, demands to be unscubscribed. The server then relays all the rude replies to all the subscribers.

The replies from the subscribers who receive the rude replies run from legalistic to tearful, to even more rude and threatening than the original rude replies.

Perhaps one subscriber out of a hundred will recognize that none of the offensive and rude messages were intended specifically for himself. He may even try to persuade the rioters to calm down, but few of them will notice his pleas for reason amongst all the crap in their inboxes.
I get caught in a spam riot at least once every year or two. When that happens, I typically receive about 200 email messages per hour.

No, I said IMish, not Amish. This is not a religion. Futterbingers is an IMish spelling.
IMish by Downstrike May 27, 2005
1. The cutesy gibberish uttered by:

a. Babies.

b. Adults talking to babies and pet animals.

2. The genesis of ebonics.
Some peeps' verbal skills are retarded because their families only talk baby talk to them. They never hear a complete sentence until they enter preschool.

Who knows what baby talk does to the minds of dumb animals?
