Enjoy & Ignore

the act of enjoying content on facebook, twitter etc without 'liking' or adding anything to the conversation
what makes people post all their private thoughts on Facebook & Twitter? Not me! I'm a social voyeur - happy to enjoy & ignore - no ways in hell would I ever post anything!

Ashed in

stuck where you are due to volcanic ash grounding all flights
excuse me, how long are we gonna be ashed in for?

impossible to say, the last time Eyjafjallajokull erupted it went on for 2 years. But I doubt you'll be ashed in for that long

Osknowsis

knowledge acquired subconsciously; the transfer of information from a high concentration (what you know about) to a low concentration (what you don't know), leading to a sudden solution; knowing something without knowing how you know it
e.g.1: On hiring a car and getting horribly lost, it suddenly occurred to the captain of the ship: why can't I have satellite navigation in my car? He had just invented it by Osknowsis.

e.g.2: "Dude, how do you know all the lyrics to Piano Man?"
Osknowsis - I don't remember learning them!

Hysterical Accuracy

'dramatic purposes'; changing the facts to make your story funnier or more interesting (and possibly to dodge potential defamatory / libel lawsuits)
some of the characters names and certain locations and events have been fictionalised for hysterical accuracy

Mystonomy

the taxonomy of mysteries; the practice of labeling confusion in order to make new conditions or weird phenomena feel understandable and normal
all entries in the urban dictionary come about through mystonomy

why do I feel the need to chase supermodels and buy sports cars even though I’m married with kids? via mystonomy, that becomes ‘mid-life crisis’ (source unknown)

why do I feel depressed? via mystonomy: ‘depression' (source unknown)

how is it that we don't fall off the planet? via mystonomy: 'gravity' by Isaac Newton

why am I utterly bored at work? via mystonomy: 'boreout' by Peter Werder

why does my penis shrink when it gets cold? via mystonomy: 'shrinkage' by Seinfeld

go to 'start' 'control panel' 'settings'

a novel way to start offering advice and easy solutions to complex problems
Example 1:

I don't know what to do - my boyfriend can't stop turning his head at anything in a short dress and stilettos. I find it really humiliating.

ah yes, go to 'start' 'control panel' 'settings' and then adjust his horndog settings to what you'd like them to be

Example 2:

what are we going to do about the energy crisis and global warming?

go to 'start' 'control panel' 'settings', click on 'energy efficiency' and then next to that you'll see 'make the world a lot more energy efficient'

Example 3:

How do I stop my boyfriend from farting so much?

go to 'start' 'control panel' 'settings' and then 'flatulence'...

yogalingus

cunnilingus and yoga combined - 'for the mind,spirit and tongue'
that ballet dancer has the most perfect yogalingus body

that gymnast is giving me so many new yogalingus ideas

our yoga teacher showed us 4 new positions perfect for yogalingus - frog pose, camel pose, boat pose and cobblers pose

try saying 'the myth of miss muffet' or 'noose noshing much mush' - it's like yogalingus for your tongue
