A person who looks up a word on Urban Dictionary for shits and giggles and reads it to their friends for laughs, but then begins to sink into the oncoming gargantuan feed of definitions for requested words. They cannot stop, as the moment they finish one definition they immediately fixate on the next.
The only cure is asking them to read the definition for a word obscure enough that there is only one definition for it. After they reach the end, there will reach a short window of time to intervene as they are confused by the possibility of a word on Urban Dict. not having infinite definitions.
Psychologists consider Acute Urban Addiction to be a combination of an addiction to doomscrolling or deadscrolling and Urban Dictionary's intuitive and convenient user interface.

(Abacus is being obnoxious during a discussion on names, so they ask their friend Baphomé to look up the definition of Abacus.)
Abacus: Hey Baphomé, what's the definition of Abacus?
Baphomé: Lemme look it up... on the URBAN DICTIONARY™!
(Baphomé reads from a long, unending list of definitions for Abacus's name. Some are made by friends of someone called Abacus, and those definitions placate and kiss-ass their Abacus. Others are made by enemies of someone made Abacus and describe their Abacus as a monster and fool. The definitions are unending all the same, and Baphomé's reading with them.)
Carrion: Baphomé, what's wrong‽
Abacus: She started reading Urban Dictionary and now she won't stop!
Carrion: She has Acute Urban Addiction! We need to get her to a doctor ASAP!

In Linux lingo, a term meant for custom cosmetics in a user's system. Some Linux users take advantage of the fact that Linux is very customizable by taking the time to scrutinize and change every cosmetic detail of their system to absolute preference. This is called ricing. Thusly, a system that has had it's cosmetic options heavily modified from the default by a user to better fit their preferences is called a rice.
More common in experienced Linux users, as they are less afraid to dig around in files for the ones that control the cosmetic features of their desktop (which can wildly vary between different desktop environments (e.g. GNOME, KDE Plasma, SwayWM, Hyprland).

A new Linus user, who just started using Fedora with the help of his friend: Wow, how does your desktop look like that?! Don't we both have the same version of Fedora?
A more experienced Linux user, who has heavily customized the cosmetics of her GNOME desktop: I riced mine. If you want I can send you the files to make yours look like this.

(verb)
1. to make a phrase or text longer by making it more poetic (hence the name) and verbose.
2. to mention something in a roundabout way, so the real word doesn't have to be said (this could happen for a variety of reasons e.g. socially unacceptable language).

(Example 1.) "I'm not a fan of this kinda food." if you wax poetic, it becomes "I do dislike this taste of cuisine, indeed."
(Example 2.) "Wanna fuck?" becomes "Would you like to come over to my place and hang?"
