beeping

{Angela}: Craig, what do those two beeping red lights on your wheelchair mean?
{Craig}: Hmmm...I don't hear anything. You must mean the BLINKING red lights. That means that the batteries are at 20%.

BDS

A Commodore 64 computer demo/cracker group called, "Brain Damage Studios" that started in the late-1980s and is very probably still around. They also published the disk magazine, "Hardline".

I programmed the names Icebreaker, Moloch, and Redeye of BDS to the greetings in the scrollies of my demos back in the early-1990s.

Shampiddle

The same thing as shampee; that is, bottles of shampoo that somebody has mistaken (either unintentionally or intentionally) as urinals.

I know you hate your next door neighbour, but did you *REALLY* have to uranate into his shampoo, thus converting it into shampiddle?

goopenthal

This phoney-bologna word is used by Hank Hill on the television program, "King of the Hill" to describe any type of psychoactive medication, such as Ritalin, Tofranil (used to stop enuresis), Prozac, Xanax, Cymbalta, trazodone, etc. Not so fake any more though; as I've heard it used in conversations over the last several years.

Bobby's taking goopenthal again to help put an end to him pissing the bed every night.

Hey bub, I'm not gonna let you come in here all hopped up on goopenthal!

carafee

Carafee (pron. "\kə-RAf' ē"\): How some people pronounce the word, "carafe" (pron. "\kə-ˈRAF\") -- you know, like one of those glass coffeepots from a coffeemaker or a glass wine decanter.

{Paul}: I douched out the carafee but the coffee still tastes like shit.
{Craig} Maybe you need to wash the filter basket too.
