blast processing

When video game companies use made-up, exciting terms to describe the normal and mundane features of their consoles or games. Sega used the term "blast processing" to describe their console's capabilities in the nineties.

So Heavy Rain has a "dynamic scenario system." Does it have blast processing, too?

inbox now

When a girl's Facebook status changes to "single", there is at least one friend who will comment saying "inbox now", meaning that they need to chat in private. This usually just draws more attention to the fact.

Kelsea's relationship status has changed from "in an open relationship" to "single".

Madison: :(

Tiffany: whaaat??

Emily: inbox now

the Wired

The constant, massive flow of data being exchanged through the internet which is a world of its own.

Josh is stuck in the Wired. He's torrenting a game, checking Reddit and Metafilter, tweeting and chatting on four different clients.

Sometimes I have trouble telling the Wired and the real world apart.

undead pendulum

The tendency for pop culture to swing back and forth between vampires and zombies; when one becomes uncool (vampires via Twilight), the other becomes cool (zombies). The pendulum swings over the course of several years.

Everything is saturated with zombies. I'm tired. Call me when the undead pendulum swings again.

Pitchforkcore

Music (especially indie music) or bands that were popularized by the music website Pitchfork. Often used derisively.

At this point I think we can assume that any band with "Beach" in its name is Pitchforkcore.

White kids who don't listen to rap will listen to Odd Future because it's Pitchforkcore.
