Lady Csyde's definitions

Brown Line Express

1. A fast-moving, no-stops train on the Brown Line.
2. A gigantic turd that tears your sphincter to shreds on the way out. Often comes without warning. So called because of a faint resemblance to a speeding subway car.

Aw man. I had a Brown Line Express this morning. I looked in the toilet, and it was actually the size of my wrist.

set of ovaries

Something you tell a woman who's acting like a little bitch to strap on a set of, since she probably wouldn't want a set of balls too much. Unless she's a transboi, but that's getting a little too far into it.

I dunno, it just didn't seem right to tell her to "man up", so I told her to strap on a set of ovaries and deal with it like a real woman.

silent key

A term used by ham radio operators as a term of respect for a deceased ham. Comes from the Morse code prosign SK, which means "end of transmission".

W1AW went silent key many years ago, but the ARRL that he founded still uses his callsign to identify their station.

Code Newton

A state of alert signifying the imminent arrival of an Apple product, usually a Macintosh computer, iPhone, or iPod. (Or, if you happen to be a collector of old tech, a Newton or Apple .)

He's been squeeing like a little girl ever since the credit card was approved. Full-out Code Newton.

googlespace

The sum total of everything that can be found by Google. If it's not in Googlespace, you'll never find it.

I just put up a new web page, but it's not in Googlespace yet.

iced tea

A uniquely American drink that apparently tea drinkers outside the US just don't get. Both refreshing and caffeinated, but be careful what you order -- Southerners like it really, really sweet.

Ah, iced tea. My wirewater of choice.

Blu-Ray

The very definition of a mixed blessing. On the one hand, 25GB of data storage and the ability to record four hours of high definition video, all on a disc the same size as a DVD or CD. On the other hand, DRMed to the teeth and boobytrapped to boot.

You don't think $750 for a Blu-Ray drive is too much, do you? I got some movies to make.
