A giant piece of paper on the wall whose sole purpose is to house graffiti. The comments, drawings, thoughts, quotes, song lyrics, and nonsense written on it is generally written in marker. When it gets so almost every inch of the paper is filled with something, it is time for a clean start with a new piece of paper.
The graffiti board we had in our 6th grade classroom was a conglomeration of really neat stuff and utter shit, such as "Lisa and Sidney and Stephanie are cool," which was scrawled over the board (by lisa, Stephanie, or Sidney) at least half a dozen times per page, so the total is probably a very high number. There was often a "not" inserted into the sentence by someone who got tired of reading that same shit every day, and this caused much uproar.

1. A spelling competition in which the participants have to spell the words orally, and sometimes (especially for the finalists) in front of an audience.
2. A character in Norton Juster's The Phantom Tollbooth, which is a play as well as a book. The main character is a boy named Milo, who leads a boring, predictable life, until a magic tollbooth appears in his room, and he goes to the worlds of Dictionopolis and Digitopolis. The spelling bee is, literally, a spelling bee-- an actual bee who spells words as he speaks them. The Phantom Tollbooth is a fantastic "children's" book, though adults can enjoy it as well, as they will get more of its jokes.
Sidenote that has nothing to do with understanding the definition, but is cool: my name is Rachel, and The Phantom Tollbooth was the play my class did in 5th grade. I was the spelling bee. The only other person I have ever met who even knew there WAS a play, was also named Rachel, also did the play in 5th grade, and was also the spelling bee. We are the same age, so it is possible that we were rehearsing and learning our lines simultaneously, though we didn't meet until we were cabin-mates at camp a few years later.

1. Person running the spelling be: Okay, the next word is "antidisestablishmentarianism."
Poor little 4th grader: Ummmmm..... come again?
(because most 4th graders don't say: WTF? How the hell am I supposed to spell that, I can't even pronounce it!)
2. The spelling bee is the best part in The Phantom Tollbooth, seeing as how the other leads were divided into 3 or 4 parts, including a sex change for Milo.

A group of people doing a lot of collective complaining, ie, bitching. It has nothing to do with a female dog or a negative, annoying person bitch.
We were doing our history homework, and then we all started talking about how much we hate our teacher.... it turned into a real bitchfest.

When you are so anxious and eager to get new correspondence that you are constantly refreshing every web browser window you have open.
Example of a refreshing routine:
*REFRESH* nope.... no new e-mail on hotmail.... *REFRESH* darn... no new Facebook notifications on gmail.... wait maybe they just haven't gotten there quite yet and I should go check Facebook right this second to see if anything's come in! *REFRESH* oh well. But maybe by now there's a hotmail message! *REFRESH* For real?? There's gotta be a hotmail message by now *REFRESH*

What you say when something bad, annoying, or disappointing happens. Basically the same as "that sucks" or "too bad."
