A word coined by an UD editor, w00Fdawg, in Oct 2005.
The word refers to when an UD editor goes on a rampage and edits a lot of (say 500 or more) words in a short time.

Get the Edit-athonmug. This is a slang that means something is coming from all directions. If things are coming in "left, right and center" they are definitely serious.
The expression comes from the military. In military terms on the battle field the commanders are concerned with getting "flanked" and have to be concerned with the strongest point of attack. When faced with an overwhelming attack which would see the opposition basically over running the defending unit the defending unit would simply refer to it as coming from "left, right and center" meaning everywhere.

Get the Left, Right and Centermug. Correct spelling would be Yi-Ei-Man
The term is directly related to the terms Aye and Aye Aye
It was a phrase that the people of the north of the Britians, developed as a sort of war cry when Vikings were attacking their coastlines.
The Britians used to yell the words "Yi-Ei-Man" to the attacking Vikings, which mean literally "No, Always, Man"
The phrase was intending to imply that the Britains would never join the Vikings crews and would fight to the death down to the last man.
In modern times the words have completely lost all meaning and the phrase is just a sort of slang way of agreeing to something - ironically exactly the opposite of what it should be.

Get the Geezermug. Form one (Ei, Ai, Aye - by itself):
Ei (eventually changed to Ai in middle English and Aye in modern English)
Used to confirm which group has a majority in a decision. It should never be the reply of an individual unless that person is representing a group. An example would be when a group votes yes or no. When the vote is counted if more votes are yes then the person representing the group would respond "Ei". In reference to the modern British use of the word, when the Vikings used to raid the coastlines they would take people prisoner to become conscripts, the crew would vote to kill the person or make them part of the crew. If they voted to make them part of the crew the reply to the captain would be a single "Ei"
It is important to note the word does not mean "Yes".
It simply means the majoirty or a group confirms or agrees.
This term when used correctly is directly related to Aye-Aye or Ei Ei. Also, see Y-Aye-Man
