buckethead

Guitarist that is famous for using (and perhaps inventing) 10 finger tapping, even utilizing his thumbs. He wears a KFC bucket on his head and Michael Myers mask covering his face.
I don't care what "GuitarOne" says, I guarantee that Buckethead can tap more notes per second than someone like Yngwie can sweep pick.

steve vai

Steve Vai is a guitar player who is both extremely creative and technically proficient. I personally consider him to be the most creative guitarist that's not retired/dead.

He used to tour with Frank Zappa and currently tours with Joe Satriani on G3.
"The 7th Song" is my favorite Steve Vai album

ultimate-guitar

A website/forum with great guitar tablatures. It has some awesome guitarists that tab songs and even make instructional videos.

Unfortunatley the forum community is mostly made up of dumbass high school freshmen who want to learn to play power chords like their hero, Billy Joe Armstrong. And God forbid when they try to tab something simple like a pop-punk song, they fuck it up somehow.
If you're a good guitarist who doesn't think that My Chemical Romance and Avenged Sevenfold are the pinnacle of musicianship, come check out Ultimate-Guitar.

If you picked up the guitar to try to get pussy, stay the fuck away.

tampon

A compacted tubular-shaped piece of cotton with a plastic applicator that women and emo boys insert into their vaginas when they're having their period.
The XhardxcoreX emo boy shoved a heavy flow tampon up his ass before going to school.

krav maga

Krav Maga isn't recognized as a true "martial art", because it teaches techniques that are "dishonorable" and/or couldn't be used in a fighting ring without really hurting the opponent. It's more like Israeli street fighting.

But it's really powerful and practical in real fights, teaches you where to strike to inflict the most damage, how to disarm opponents, get out of bear hugs/choke holds etc.

And it's not just in LA anymore, there are training centers all over the US now
Pretend a couple of dumbass emo kids try and jump you in the parking lot after class... if you know Krav Maga, you can break their knee caps, punch in a few wind pipes, even go for their testicles/eyes. All they'll know how to do is throw a pathetic right cross.

I've actually squared off with a kid who was bigger than me and had to be careful not to mortally injure him.

pinch harmonics

On the guitar, pinch harmonics is the act of lightly touching a string with the edge of your thumb/palm (picking hand) after plucking it. Similar to natural harmonics except you're not playing off a fret. If you use a lot of distortion and gain it produces a squealing effect.
A lot of guitarists use pinch harmonics, most notably Zakk Wylde, but also players like ZZ Top, Dimebag Darrell, and even Steve Vai.
