hate watching 

When the pleasure you get watching something on TV comes from your hatred of it.

It's really sad that I learned that technique from hate watching Toddler's & Tiaras

So I was hate watching this liberal/conservative talk show the other day, and the host wouldn't stop talking about healthcare!

I don't mess with 

A polite way of saying that you don't have, and don't want to have, anything to do with someone or something.

I don't mess with Matt Lauer or the Today Show ... and that's a very nice way for me to put it!

I want to say one thing to the American people. I want you to listen to me. I'm going to say this again: I don't mess with that woman.

megathon 

When you watch all the episodes of all the seasons of an entire TV series over a short-period of time. i.e. a mega marathon.

I haven't left my house in a week, I've been megathoning 24.

Let's see, I have two weeks between when my job ends and school starts. And I haven't seen The Wire yet. You know what, I think I'm going to megathon it.

social location fraud 

Tricking a social location service--like Foursquare, Loopt, or Gowalla--into thinking you're someplace you're not.

Dude, how did this guy become the Mayor of the North Pole?? That's some social location fraud right there.

status stalker 

Someone who only reads your facebook status updates or tweets, but doesn't actually reach out and talk to you.

When I met Jimmy in real life, the first thing he mentioned was something I tweeted about. He's such a status stalker, why doesn't he just send me a message or something??

holiday friends 

friends with whom your entire social interaction is based on seeing them at special occasions.

I don't remember the last time I saw Jessica. I think it was on Fat Tuesday, or wait, was it on Memorial Day? Nah, maybe it was New Years? I'm not sure, maybe all of them, I guess we're holiday friends.

green pork 

Federal government money spent on states' so-called green projects.

This loan guarantee for nuclear power plants amounts to billions of dollars in green pork that will do little to meet America’s energy needs.
