Panicure

The scene in Airplane, where that woman is freaking out and Leslie Nielsen smacks her. "Get a hold of yourself!" (he gave her the panicure)

Philosperger

A philosperger will go on endlessly and profoundly about one particular interest, often linking to things as grand as a global conspiracy all the way down to the granular: “It might be just me, but…”

Josh is a philosperger because he just went on for 3 hours about how a global supply chain is a huge reason why Americans have sub-standard cheese.

Clonemy

Clone + Enemy. A hater that still realizes that deep down, your all kinds of awesome (which is why they hate you), but they decide to copy everything you do and still hate you at the same time.

I wore this awesome and really unique shirt (nobody else at the time had it) to the club last week, but Mike was there (a hater). He talks crap about me all the time. Next week I went, Mike was wearing the same shirt. He's such a Clonemy

Phoenix That Shit

take something old and make it new again. but phoenix the shit out of it. Make it so new that it makes you bow at the mere thought of its presence.

Re-gifting also works here too. What are we going to do for gifts for the neighbors?

"I dont know, what did they get us last year?"

"They got us a magazine rack."

"Then phoenix that shit."

"bombing on stage? well get your balls son, and phoenix that shit right up!"

Metalectro

It's "metal" in an electro house format. Big room style, big reverb, heavy guitar-like synths. The best example I can think of is the band Savoy from Brooklyn, NY. (A live band trio) If you lookup the track "The Bridge" it pretty much sums up what i think metalectro is.

Sure, its another name, but as an 80s kid growing up with Metallica, Megadeth and death metal, real hardcore metal... as in \m/... it gives me some more stable ground in this crazy edm world. In other words, it makes sense to me.

If these lords of metal shoved their guitars into Ableton Live or Logic, or some other DAW, this might be the result. It isn't as heavy as metal, but more sharp and crisp, with the purpose of filling a very big room.

"The Bridge" by Savoy may not be the first and only example, but i think it is a good example of Metalectro
