Get the elsewhat mug.Korean text message slang for 'Hurry Up'. This is because saying the number sequence 8-2-8-2 in Hangul (the Korean Language) sounds almost identical to saying ‘Hurry up’ in the like language(‘Hangul’).

plural form: n00bs at life
one who refuses to learn from or take the advice of his\her elders or those whom hold more wisdom or are more knowledgable when it comes to ane specific field or category of experience, or who is simply too hard-headed to apply his\her peers’ successful actions/conduct to his\her-self; one who is too stubborn to grow much as a human, who will oft decline him\herself the right to learn from his\her past experiences, and who will seldom accept things in any way that isn’t to the standard that s\he is used to or has been led to believe priorhand/previously (even if it lacks evidence or support to back it up), who may try too steadfast not to lose face when proven wrong; linear. Oftentimes agnostic on a level deeper than the thought of ‘God’ (which, when on a deeper level, is a bad thing, because it illustrates lack of true taste/perception or knowledge of the surrounding world as perceived by the n00b at life).
See also n00b, which is different than a 'noob'. (A noob reffers more to a ‘newb’, or ‘newbie’ at something{specifically a videogame}, whereas a 'n00b' can be anyone who..well I’m not suppose to define 'n00b' here, but just note that even vets can act n00b-ish at times.)
Compare 'n00bs at life' with the '‘élitist’ Democrats' who THINK that they’re über-the-shit and clearly demonstrate their ‘superiority’ towards the rest of the population.

"Having a n00b at life for your mother really bites. But to have a n00b at life for your father is a plain-out atrocity (especially if you are a male, though is equally conductually imparing to a daughter)."

Get the Cripes mug.short for \ shortened from \ shortened version of the prepositional phrase ‘on {TV}’ or ‘on {TV network-X}’. Preposistion used as a present-tense_particple-type adjective in sentences that answer or pose (dependent on whether the sentence is declarative or interrogative) the question as to ‘*When* {<a designated program> is on <television>}’.
This is an example of a shortened version of something which is repeatedly said over-and-over in English; another example is the ommition of 'that' or 'which' in the sense of “Why is it, that you always seem to be attracted the to food *I* like?”, which actually means “Why is it, that you always seem to be attracted the to food that\which *I* like?” Not exactly the same are these two, though similar enough to be compared, I feel.

Q: When is Family Guy on?
A: Family Guy is on FOX every Sunday at 9:00PM EST.
Person flipping through the satelite\cable\prescription tv channels, changing it at intervals of exactly two seconds: “Ugh, nothing good is on...”
Annoyed endurer: “There’s 999 channels to choose from!!--Pick one!!!”
Note: The above sentence breaks a rule as disregarded as split infinitives, ending a sentence with a preposition. It could be fixed to “There's 999 channels from which to choose!!--Pick one!!!”, though sounds awkward and stilted in such a form, even on a non-colloquial level.

Get the on mug.A tree which consisting of several stems with long compound leaves protuding of each. Colloquially, sometimes called a ‘stink tree’ due to its strong distinguishing odor. Also called ‘tree of heaven’, with no hyphens.
The tree-of-heaven originated in China, and was brought to North America in the early 1800s. Here in the States, they seldom grow to a very large size, though in China they do more frequently.
