atari st 

Computer system from 1980s and early 1990s. Marketed under the tag, "Power without the price", the Atari ST was an extremely good system - and affordable - for its time, but the damp squib that was the STE (like a standard ST but with a blitter chip which no sod used and and extra £50 on the price), followed by the destined-never-to-arrive Falcon (also from Atari) caused interest to lapse. That, and the fact that there was a bit of a lack of decent software for it - it lost huge swathes of market share to PCs.

If you still have nostalgia for this miseworthy computer system, visit www.atari.st.

Wofem 

Male-free spelling of "woman". Apparently designed by Bina Goldfield in an attempt to remind men that they make up slightly less than 50% of the human race, yet was discredited by Goldfield's use of "femstruate", "afemdfemt", and "femsion". Now unly used by really nutty feminists.

"I decline to ovarify," the wofem declared, "on the protection afforded to me by the Fifth Afemdfemt."

burger 

Minced and reformed beef in a vaguely disc-shaped slab, cooked, and placed inside a bread roll, possibly along with various vegetables and sauces. Usually the meat is sourced from cheap offcuts and has a higher than average fat content. That being said, there is something distinctly refreshing about biting into a great greasy burger once every so often.

The best burgers in existence are thick, juicy, and served on a random floury white bread roll. None of this standardised McDonalds crap!

"Stupid friggin' knights!"

qwned 

Superlative of pwned, gaming vernacular. What happens when one utterly humiliates one's opponent to an extent not thought physically possible. For example, at Magic the Gathering, trashing somebody on turn 3 or earlier thanks to utter skill and/or a miseworthy opening hand is an example of qwnage.

Note - Sometimes it is pronounced "Quoned", but I prefer to think of it as "Quooned."

"I utterly qwned that scrub over there playing Sligh. Heh."
