Acknowledging a waiter/waitress by telling them what a good job they did serving your table. Often used by old people and usually unaccompanied by a monetary tip.
I wish I could have told those old people off for the verbal tipping they gave me, but they were just so nice I didn't have the heart.

Get the verbal tippingmug. Term for a boyfriend or girlfriend who refuses to be dumped, or is ignorant of the fact that you are trying to dump them.

Get the unflushablemug. Refers to indie bands or artists that are only obscure in that they have no Top 40 plays or chart hits, but are otherwise at least moderately well-known among music fans. The name comes from the fact that these bands are among the first that people discover when they are getting into indie music, as they are just scratching the surface. Surface indie bands often penetrate the mainstream consciousness from time to time, usually by appearing on TV show or movie soundtracks, or by signing to a major label. Examples include Sufjan Stevens, Belle and Sebastian, and The Decemberists. Smug hipsters will often deride surface indie bands by saying the quality of the music suffers as a result of their increasing popularity (and are especially prone to claiming those bands have sold out), but this is just pointless douchebaggery.
Don't listen to that hipster douchebag who says it gets so much better than Of Montreal. If you enjoy surface indie, then listen to it.

Get the surface indiemug. A pantomimed high five, performed in unison with someone who is too far away (e.g. across a room) to give you an actual high five.
When the professor announced that class would be canceled, Eric and Nathan gave each other an air five.

Get the air fivemug. 1. A group of people, most commonly three to five in number, who regularly congregate for the purpose of making music that will hopefully make them rich and famous and get them laid.
2. A video game for the Xbox 360 that allows a person to simulate the experience of being in a rock band. One can either sing or play guitar, bass, or drums. Can be played with everyone together in one room or separately online. Akin to what being in an actual rock band would be like if you only played covers and had more cheet on your shirt.

Get the rock bandmug. A sitcom on CBS that, like most sitcoms created by Peter Lorre, is successful despite being shamelessly uninnovative and completely predictable. In it, Charlie Sheen - playing himself, more or less - moves in with his dorky, recently divorced brother (played by Jon Cryer) to help him raise his son. Despite its low ambitions, it is an acceptable viewing choice if nothing else is on. However, its achievements cannot be ignored. Two and a Half Men gave Jon Cryer a role to be remembered for aside from Duckie in Pretty in Pink, and Charlie Sheen singlehandedly revived the popularity of the bowling shirt. Keep your expectations low and you'll probably enjoy it.
I only watched that episode of Two and a Half Men because it just happened to come on the channel I was watching and I couldn't find the remote. It wasn't bad though. Not great, but not bad, either.

Get the two and a half menmug. The largest, most fattening burger offered at a Hardee's restaurant. An incredible mountainous heap of bacon, beef, mayonnaise, and cheese. The holy grail of artery-clogging fast food. Contains 1,420 calories and 107 grams of fat, as well as ungodly amounts of saturated fat and sodium. PETA's worst nightmare. Not for the health-conscious or faint of heart.
Everyone get in the car, we're going to Hardee's! And bring the defibrillator, honey, 'cause I'm havin' a Monster Thickburger!
