squip

1) In the book Be More Chill by Ned Vizzini, a "squip" is a tiny microcomputer that is ingested in pill form and travels to your brain, where it gives you instructions on how to be cool and/or popular. No such techonology yet exists (stuff somewhat similar in concept to this is being developed, though).
The squip is deactivated/destroyed by drinking Mountain Dew Code Red, the short-lived, highly caffenated Mountain Dew spinoff.

2)Originally, this idea was part of Ned Vizzini's largely sucessful (in some places, anyway), campaign to draw attention to his book, Be More Chill.
The campaign was based around the use of stickers that said "SQUIP? Google it.", which fans were encouraged to get for free off of his website and stick wherever they could.
As a result, many people did Google squip, and in the process stumble upon the book.
1) Some people really do wish they could have a squip.
2) "SQUIP? Google it."

thematic elements

A vague disclaimer added to movie ratings to explain why they are rated the way they are- without actually explaining anything!
Yet another example of how the film industry lives off of consumer confusion and crazy marketing tactics.
The movie was rated PG for "mild thematic elements"... whatever that meant.

public restroom

Restroom avaliable for public use. Found in stores, schools, government buildings, etc. Some are OK, but many smell to high heaven, never have enough toliet paper or soap (heh, so much for sanitation), and (especially in the case of high school bathrooms) have tons of graffiti scrawled everywhere. Also are a good place to find people getting high, throwing up, or just hiding from life.
1) "I had to pee, so I ducked into a public restroom. I wish I'd just gone in the woods or something instead, it was that gross."

TI-84 Plus

A graphing calculator made by Texas Instruments. The TI-84 is capable of the same functions as the TI-83 Plus, but differs from the TI-83 Plus in several ways.

The 84 Plus has more ROM/Flash memory than the 83 Plus and a slightly better display. This is useful for storing flash applications. The 84 Plus also has a face-lifted appearance, and is slightly bulkier in design. It also costs more than the 83 Plus.

Both calculators are capable of graphing functions and equations, solving matrices, and other mathematical functions, making them useful for Algebra, particularly higher level Algebra. Both are also capable of being programmed to do various tasks, and, most importantly to high school students, they can be used to play BASIC and Flash games (ie Space Invaders, Falldown, Uncle Worm, etc.)
Person 1: Hey man, I've got math class next period... do you have a graphing calculator I could use?

Person 2: Yeah, but you better give it back. <hands calc to friend>

Person 1: You've got an 84 a TI-84 Plus? Sweet. Lemme see what games you have.

Person 2: Hey, I thought you needed it for math class...

Person 1: Well, duh. What do you think I do in math all period?

iron man

1) A song by Black Sabbath that has inspired thousands of youth across America and the world to pick up a guitar and start slamming away to the rhythm of it's chords. Probably second only to Smoke on the Water by Deep Purple in it's prevalance as one of the first songs aspiring rock guitarists learn how to play.

2) A Marvel Comics superhero, AKA Tony Stark. Fights evil from inside a high-tech red and gold suit. Owner of Stark Industries... see other definitions for more in-depth coverage of this topic.

3) A race, similar to a triathalon. Involves swimming, running, and biking.
1) Rock loving teen: "I am Iron Man..." dananananana Iron Man! *strums away violently at his guitar which he got a few days ago, and on which he only knows how to play one chord.

2) Tony Stark... AKA Iron Man!

3) That dude ran the Iron Man last weekend... wow.

dipoding

A word meaning "dual ipoding". I came up with this word to describe the often-seen act of two people sharing an ipod (one person has an earbud in one ear, one in the other). This can be done with a CD player as well, but it seems to look cooler with an ipod for some reason. It also may be more common with ipods because fewer people have one.
1) "I wanted to listen to Tina's ipod, so I asked her if we could dipod together."
2) "Jess and Jen started dipoding so they could both listen to the Rent soundtrack."

disasterporn

In addition to the above defintion, this term is also used in the debate community (particularly policy debate) to describe how debaters tend to get happy and excited when they hear of bad news they can somehow use to an advantage in a debate.
There is a kritik about this, because it could be considered somewhat immoral to derive enjoyment from another's suffering.
1.Debater1- "Did you hear? Five people were killed yesterday after the government mismanaged their healthcare... I've found some awesome evidence from this that'll really boost our case! We're gonna kick those other team's a$$es!"
Debater2 *looking at computer screen*-"Whoa, sh*t, man, that's some serious disasterporn there. I like it."
Debater3-"Y'know, that's sort of wrong you're so happy about this... but what the hell, I'm using that evidence too!"
Deaber4 *sighing at this perceived immaturity* -"If this was a debate I'd run a kritik on you guys right now."
