Dongon

A portmanteau of "Do nothing, go nowhere"; in essence, it is a term for a person with no ambition, no drive, and no desire to make themselves a better person (by pursuing a better career, higher education, etc.)
It's nice to know that when I become a success several years from now, these dongons will still be working the same dead-end job.

Metricophobia

Nothing sets off someone's metricophobia by hearing their absurd comparisons of weight, height, volume, etc. with "Yeah, but what is that in metric?"

Post-Con Blues

The feeling of sadness that comes from leaving an anime convention and returning home to your original, normal life.
Ever since I got home from Otakon, I caught Post-Con Blues, and I haven't been able to get anything done.

Rosscott's Law

The faster the computer, the faster it can go wrong.
Rosscott's Law burned me when my new computer crashed not less than a day after I purchased it.

Normie

Someone who deliberately places themselves outside the wave of what's popular in technology, entertainment, video games, et al (i.e. they not only "don't get it", they "choose not to get it"). Used frequently by gamers, and fans of anime - especially those who frequently participate in cosplaying - to refer to non-fans.
1) I tried explaining the appeal of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya to my parents, but they stopped listening after about twenty seconds. They're such normies.

2) About halfway through the first song she tried on my copy of Guitar Hero, my normie sister threw down the guitar, called it stupid, and walked out of the room.

So Sayeth You

A verbal disagreement, typically delivered as a call-and-response seen in many church sermons, whose meaning and intensity varies upon the speaker--at its most polite, it can be construed as "I respectfully disagree" or "That's what you think"; at its most intense, it means, "Bullshit!" or "You fucking liar!"
Tourist: But everyone gets killed in this town!
Local: Yeah, so sayeth you, dumbass; have you seen how nice this place is?

Mother: Your hair's getting too long. You need a haircut!
(Bald) Son: So sayeth you.
