Yet Another Josh Cohen's definitions

fuckerware party

A party, usually attended by women or couples (but almost never just by men, and single men are almost never invited unless they're of the homosexual occasion). It is held at one person's house. That person may or may not be the host. Whomever the host actually is will come to the party with several large plastic bins filled with sex toys, lingerie, lubricants, and oils.

Kind of like a Pampered Chef, Tastefully Simple, or Tupperware party.

Ever since my wife came home with all that stuff from the fuckerware party, she hasn't had sex with me.

manage expectations

corporate doublespeak for "we don't want to do our best, so let's make sure people think we're doing our best without revealing that we're not doing our best" -- anything in which you have to "manage expectations" means you could probably devote more time and effort to making things better, but you just don't feel like it

Marketing has to manage expectations of our new software package so that the boss doesn't make us do any more work.

prius tetris

When driving a Prius, you can view a bar-graph of your fuel consumption over the past 30 minutes. A "prius tetris" is when you go five consecutive minutes (or more) at 99.9 miles per gallon. This shows on your bar-graph as a long, straight bar, similar to the four-high bars in Tetris.

No wonder you don't need any gas! You're always getting a prius tetris!

poop friend

A friend you're close enough to that you can talk about poop -- having to poop, the smell of it, that you just fired off a big one, that sort of thing. Very valuable.

"Ugh, I still feel like crap. I fired one off 10 minutes ago and it didn't help."
'What, a poop?'
"Yeah... we're poop friends, right? I can tell you that, right?"
'Uhh... yes?'

facebook singing

The practice of, when you see a song lyric on Facebook or another social networking website, singing the next lyric. Usually someone will add a third, then a fourth, and so on.

(originally coined by Sethual Chocolate)

Jeff Smith says I believe I can fly

John Jones says I believe I can touch the sky

Kim German says I think about it every night and day

Phyllis Seymour wants to spread my wings and fly away

Andrew Rickenbacker just doesn't understand all this facebook singing.

suicide lane

A lane on a roadway that, depending upon the time of day, changes direction of travel. Sometimes, as in Snellville, Georgia, the direction of travel is noted by an electric sign every 200 feet hanging across the highway. Other times, as in parts of Maryland, there is nothing but a sign.

Example:

| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 |

From 5am to noon, lanes 1, 2, 3, and 4 are Southbound, lane 5 is a turn lane, and lanes 6 and 7 are Northbound. From noon to 8pm, lanes 1 and 2 are Southbound, lane 3 is a turn lane, and lanes 4 through 7 are Northbound.

The suicide lanes on 78 always creep me out just a bit.

genre twist

The "twist ending" that pervades science fiction, horror, mystery, and fantasy writing, television, or film -- basically, anything that might get the label "genre". The classic example is that Bruce Willis was dead the entire time.

Marlene: Hey, did you watch Criminal Minds last week?

Jill: Yeah, but I figured out the genre twist just before they revealed the kid was the killer.

Marlene: I got it before the end of the second commercial break.
