Lady Chevalier's definitions

my new best friend

Something awesome (especially something unexpected or surprising) that makes your life easier or in some way better; a declaration of love.

Also, part of a childhood playground threat.
Wow! I had no idea that accurately graphing parabolas could be so easy! This TI-83 is my new best friend!

Alice, I can't believe you did that! Wow! You're my new best friend!

That was SO much fun! Rock climbing is my new best friend!

You didn't pick me first for your kickball team yesterday. I hate you now. But that's okay. Sally is my NEW best friend.

fnord

A word placed randomly in sentences, purported to instill fear or uneasiness in the reader. Its use generally references a conspiracy or parody thereof.

Popularised by the Illuminatus! trilogy by Roberts Shea and Winston.

Not to be confused with fjord, those elegant creations of Slartibartfast from the Hitchhiker's Guide "Trilogy."
Fnord is evaporated herbal tea without the herbs.

barrel of laughs

An unfunny or annoying person.

The term was originally used to refer to a funny person or situation, but is used sarcastically so often that the original meaning is all but lost.

Similar to laugh riot.
Yeah, he's a regular barrel of laughs. Shoot me, please.

Wal*Mart rejects

The dregs of society.

Wal*Mart is a universally loathed chainstore, commonly described as catering to white trash and being solely responsible for the collapse of western civilization. The implication is that only the lowest of the low shop or work there; thus, Wal*Mart rejects (those who cannot get a job there or shoppers who have been banned from the premises) must truly be among the worst examples of humanity.

The phrase is used both by people who shun Wal*Mart and those who shop there, as everyone can relate to it.
Some Wal*Mart reject tried to chat me up at the club last night. Can you say gross?

No wonder we can't hire anyone! The only people who'd work for this pay are Wal*Mart rejects!

kthxdie

Variant of kthxbye and kthxbai, but with a mordant edge.

The original term kthxbye (okay, thanks, bye) is generally used to terminate a (n online) conversation in a quick manner, often with slight insult to the other party. The implication is that the other person is not even worth talking to.

kthxdie is like that, only more so, and with an added death wish.
Obi wan Kenobi: You can't win, Darth--if you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine.
Darth Vader: kthxdie.

drop bears

Shy, gentle creatures, about which little is known. Natives of Australia, they are purported to "drop" down on the heads of unsuspecting passers-by. An unfortunate misconception, and one that has led to their poaching and near-extinction.

Possibly related to the chupacabra, an equally misunderstood creature of the southern United States.

nalle

Cellphone.

Means teddy bear in Swedish. The word refers to a cellphone because of the way some people cuddle and cradle the device next to their faces--like a little kid with a favorite stuffed animal.

Term originated in Sweden, but is taking on a life of its own in the English-speaking world.
Hang on--I'm getting a ring on the nalle.
