Ring-on 

A hardcore fan of Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit. Apparently patterned after "Klingon" from Star Trek's fandom base.

For anyone who is a Ring-on, Matamata, New Zealand (the site of Hobbiton in both Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit) is a must-see.

Bombur 

The extremely obese Dwarf in The Hobbit

If you keep eating like that, you'll get as fat as Bombur.

viola 

An undeservedly ignored symphony orchestra instrument, larger than a violin but smaller than a cello. You read the music in the alto clef, but occasionally the music can go up into treble clef range. Has a warm, velvety kind of tonal quality.

Hector Berlioz's "Harold in Italy" is a concerto for viola and symphony orchestra.

earfucking 

Orgasmic feeling supposedly produced by a musician playing a zurna directly into someone else's ear. The zurna is a type of shrill keyless oboe played mostly in the Balkans in traditional folk music and many zurna players are deaf as a result of the instrument being played directly into their ears.

If you go to the (former Yugoslav republic of) Macedonia, you may see some earfucking going on in the villages where ensembles play traditional music.

catchup 

No, it's not the tomato condiment that you put on your French fries but the express train you ride in the hope of catching the local train you just missed.

Fuck---just missed my 6 train at Brooklyn Bridge. I'll take the catchup to 14th Street---maybe I can pick up the 6 from there.
