Lady Chevalier's definitions

lite

Light--20% fewer letters, same great pronunciation!

Used to describe a new product or trend that is healthier, cheaper, or wussier (but rarely all three) than the original.

See Miller Lite, Kazaa Lite, lite rock.

In its proper use, lite should appear AFTER the noun it is modifying. This gives the term an appropriately quirky feel.
Your local community college--University Lite.

dead message

A voicemail or message left on an answering machine that is nothing but a few seconds of dead air.

Left by people who cannot, for some inexplicable reason, hang up the phone BEFORE the end of the outgoing message, but instead wait until the recording begins.
Lisa calls her friend Eric, and reaches his voicemail. Lisa has no intention of leaving a voicemail, but listens to the entirety of Eric's outgoing message (including the beep) before hanging up.

Eric's voice: Hey there, I'm not around right now. There's going to be a beep in a few seconds; you know what to do.

*beep*

Lisa: .... *hangs up telephone*

rock my socks off

Verb, "to be excellent." Used to express great approval or joy.

Commonly applied to people, events, and objects, but rarely locations.

It is frequently preceded by the adverb totally, and may be used with or without the terminal preposition.

Similar to rock my face off, but with a dorkier twist.

Online usage note: phrase must be accompanied by some form of caps lock.
Megan! AWESOME! You totally rock my socks!

Caesar: Napoleon Dynamite sucked... like a leech.
Cleopatra: Are you kidding me? That movie totally rocked my SOCKS off!

Having free laundry at my dorm rocks my socks off.
However, the laundry room itself is a location; ergo, it does not rock my socks. :(

Gogglehead

Insult, originating from the anime Digimon. Each season of the show contained a stubborn or bullheaded "leader" character who wore goggles on top of his head. The word "gogglehead" came to epitomise the stereotypical blunt, stubborn, or self-centered characteristics of the show's main characters.

Despite the fact the Digimon show has been over and done with for some time, it still has a pretty hardcore fanbase, and the word is common on website and forums that still cater to Digimon fans, as well as other "kiddie anime" sites that host pages about Pokémon, YuGiOh, or other shows that shared a fanbase with Digimon.

Often used affectionately.
That newbie didn't even read the rules before she started posting. What a gogglehead.

Tai always was my favorite character. I miss that old gogglehead.

A shorthand term for synaesthesia, a condition involving the "mix and matching" of the five senses.
Do you hear that? It's this high pitched, coppery-tasting buzzing noise.
