pointer update

Change in address, phone number, IM, or other contact details. Originates in the programmer community where a "pointer" is something that tells you where to look for the real information.

I got a new cell phone and have to send everyone a pointer update so they don't call the old number.

Girlkissing o'clock

That time at a party when the straight girls get drunk enough to start kissing each other.

Too bad I left before girlkissing o'clock - I would have liked to see those two trying it.

financiopath

A person who uses his position of power or trust to commit large-scale financial fraud.

You shouldn't expect regulators to catch bigtime financiopaths like Bernie Madoff - that's not how the world works.

Crotchbomber

Sarcastic name for someone like Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, who carries an explosive device in his shorts.

DHS's Napolitano's response to the crotchbomber: "We're looking to make sure that this sort of incident cannot recur."
