browser snob 

A web site that turns its nose up at legitimate, fully-functional browsers, such as IE 7 or Firefox simply because the webmaster won't tolerate his site being viewed using off-brand browsers and can't be bothered to update the site's script to recognize legitimate browsers.

Some monopolistic corporations, such as MyCrudSoft, are browser snobs. You have to do business with them on their terms because they don't even need to care whether you like doing business with them. It's their way making sure you know that they don't have to give a crap about you.

Chippy 

A name given to a disoriented sea lion that swam up the California Aquesuct almost as far as Los Banos.

Chippy was named after CHiPs by the CHiPs who were wondering what the heck to do with a sea lion in the desert-like west side of San Joaquin Valley, which is quite fitting since the CHiPs around Los Banos get disoriented too. So watch out for them on I-5, or they'll run you over!

puppie

Oly

Short for Olympia.

You only call Olympia Oly if you're talking about the beer, or if you're trying desperately to be funny. Very, very desperately, and more trying than funny.

Earthquake Test

This is only a test. Had this been an actual earthquake, your stream of pee would wave to and fro and back and forth in front of you.

In the event of an actual Earthquake, you would probably have peed yourself without getting to a urinal first.
