Get the Skillmug. A period of roughly six weeks, lasting from the end of November to some time in January. It includes a number of religious holidays, traditional celebrations, and family visits. It is generally accepted to be both the best part of the year (for people under the age of fifteen) and the worst part of the year (for people over the age of fifteen).
Includes: Thanksgiving, Hannukah, Advent, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, the Winter Solstice, St. Nick's Day, Kwanzaa, Boxing Day, New Year's Eve, New Year's Day, Winter Break (for students), and a number of others.
Sometimes used (as "Happy Holidays") as a politically correct (race, creed, and nationality-neutral) phrase on cards and decorations.
Also known as "International Muzak Month" due to the unwavering propensity of shopping establishments to assault their customers' ears with instrumental version of "Do You Hear What I Hear," "Jingle Bell Rock," and "White Christmas" for the entire six-week period.

If I hear "The Little Drummer Boy" one more time, I swear I'm going to snap. I didn't mind this as a kid, but ever since I turned fifteen, boy! I hate the holidays.

Get the The Holidaysmug. Verb, preterite of "to friend."
Related to facebook; the action of adding another student as a friend. You click a button, "requesting" that the other person will allow you to add them as a friend. They will receive your request and can either accept or deny it.
You can deny any friend request, and the other person will not be told you rejected them; however, you will not appear on their friend list. This will lead to their repeated attempts to "friend' you. In the end, it's easier just to confirm the darn request.
Despite the appearance and similar meaning, not a shortened form the word befriended.

Get the friendedmug. 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.

Get the litemug. "You're a wuss. Learn to deal."
An elaborated version of the sentiment is found in the phrasing: "Let me get you a straw so you can SUCK IT UP."
The proffering of a straw to aid "sucking up" abilities is generally considered more comical (read: obnoxious) than simply telling a whiner to deal.
Can be used in any situation.

*a minor chainsaw incident occurs*
Bob: Um, could you call 911 for me?
Frank: Do it yourself.
Bob: ...I don't have "hands" anymore.
Frank: How about this? I'll get you a straw so you can SUCK IT UP.
