Hashtag Abuse

When anyone uses a hashtag (simply a way for people to search for tweets that have a common topic and to begin a conversation) on a website, text message, or anything that does not pertain to Twitter. This is quite annoying considering hashtagging only works on Twitter.

(In a text message)

Guy: Hey want to go see Paranormal Activity 3?
Girl: I can't, I have to work :( #IHateMyJob
Guy: That doesn't work on text messages, only Twitter.
Girl: But I do it on Facebook all the time! #FreakingOut
Guy: Oh my God you're an idiot.

Furniture abuse

Deliberate violence towards chairs, tables or other items of furniture during a theatrical production. The most common form of furniture abuse is knocking over chairs or throwing them across the stage. Frequently seen in operas, furniture abuse is usually perpetrated by characters as an expression of rage or great despair, although some cynics claim it merely shows a lack of imagination on the part of the director

"There was a lot of gratuitous furniture abuse in the recent Covent Garden Ring cycle"

highlighter abuser

Term for a student who tends to highlight almost every part of an academic text he/she is reading, thus defeating the purpose of highlighting in the first place. Typically people who are attentive students but can't grasp the actual significance of what they're reading.

Tim was ashamed to find Janie had indiscriminately highlighted virtually every sentence in her packet about Kafka. It all made so much sense now. She was a highlighter abuser.
