dancervention

When someone's dancing is so bad that it needs to be excised from the dance floor; the ensuring process is a dancervention. Usually instigated by friends of the dance-challenged individual to save him/her from further embarrassment.

Harry is a great guy, but that running man he just did out there requires a dancervention to get him off the floor!

Random Austrian Holiday

Any of the many holidays (often related to Catholic feast days) celebrated in Austria. Since these tend to occur frequently and without warning, they are designated as random. Particularly important because all stores are closed on such days. Abbreviation: RAH.

Thanks for reminding me about the Random Austrian Holiday. I almost forgot to get groceries before!

Bills' Overtime

A situation that will be painful, tense, and heart-wrenching, only to end in agony. Refers to the Buffalo Bills' overtime record in 2010, which at the time of this definition was 0-3.

'We've got them now,' said quarterback Ben Roethlisberger to his fellow Steelers on the sideline when the game was tied at the end of regulation in Orchard Park, NY. 'It's a Bills' overtime. That is a guaranteed win for us.'

Although I left the house late, I was still hoping to make the movie. Unfortunately, the traffic jam created a Bills' overtime.

Cloudy

Computer files that are backed up online, or in the cloud. If a file is cloudy, then there is no need to worry about losing the copy on the computer.

My computer crashed while I was working on my term paper for my history class. At first, I was worried. Then I remembered that I had uploaded a copy to Dropbox, so the paper was cloudy.

girlfriend drop

Subtly adding the fact that you have a girlfriend into the conversation in order to deter anyone who is potentially interested. The first time this happens is the girlfriend drop. Also can be used in describing this event by the other person who was interested.

Related to boyfriend drop.

Sheila: 'I was making a move on Franz, but then he girlfriend dropped so I backed off.'

To complain about stupid behavior repeatedly exhibited by an individual.

Unspiring

The opposite of inspiring.

That meeting with our boss about how 50% of us will probably lose our jobs was pretty unspiring!
