gameboy

A gaming device that provided for millions of girls and boys a true family, one that loved them as long as they didn't get a game over. These devices were the first to make gaming portable and spawned a cultural trend of incredible proportions. The Gameboy was the most glorious invention since TV because of the pure, unadulterated happiness (if you played a good game...) and hand-eye coordination it provided to kids of all kinds around the world. For many children, the amount of love their parents gave them was measured not in happy moments but in gameboy games purchased. And, in the case of hardcore kiddies, bleeding thumbs.

Any of the devices of the gameboy line, those being:
Gameboy
Gameboy Pocket
Gameboy Safari (very rare, considered an urban myth. but that's why it's here, right?)
Gameboy color (my real parent)
Gameboy Advance
Gameboy Advance SP (SP stood for Special)

the gameboy and gameboy pocket used primitive cartridges and did not support much in the way of color.
The Gameboy Color obviously was the first gameboy to provide any real color, and was capable of playing the original cartridges and had it's own line of colored cartridges. the older gameboys could not play these, which happened with every iteration.

The Gameboy Advance was often considered the most ergonomic gameboy and had a wider screen and two new buttons. It played smaller, better cartridges and could play color cartridges but not the original ones.

The gameboy SP was essentially a gameboy advance but had a lit LCD screen and a "laptop" style body. very popular model.

MOM: Okay, okay! look, what will make you happy? a new basketball/hairclip? (because gameboys are ambidextrous. no... no, ambiguous... that's the one...)
ME/YOU: MY HAPPINESS CAN ONLY BE GUARANTEED IF YOU GET ME THE NEW GAMEBOY!!!

and this happened all the time...

gamedropping

The practice of dropping a #GamerGate mention into a totally unrelated article in an attempt to drive clicks and controversy. Commonly used by disreputable clickbait sites like Buzzfeed, Kotaku & The Guardian, especially those with SJW leanings.

"The Guardian is gamedropping again in that article on the colonisation of Mars"
"The last thing we need is to wake up in 50 years and find that a bunch of #gamergate nobheads are running Mars. "

hip to the game

The state of being especially well-versed in a particular area of expertise. There are no boundaries for what constitutes a subject that can be considered a person's area of expertise. Experts specialize in topics that range from dating to bowel movements. Simple cursory knowledge of a topic does not fulfill the requirements for attaining this lofty status. An individual who reaches this state has intimate knowledge of his specialty, and has honed his craft over a considerable period of time. A suitable comparison is a person who has achieved the rank of Grand Master in chess. The only difference is that there is no governing body that determines one's eligibility to be deemed worthy of this status. Rather, a person's eligibility to be deemed "hip to the game" is established by a plurality amongst their peers. If no consensus can be reached, it is clear that the person in question does not reach the high standards associated with this label. Also, an individual who is privy to certain information not available to the general public may be classified as being "hip to the game." It may also be used as a verb ("hippin' you to the game" or "hippin'" for short). The verb conjugation of the phrase is used when an expert is passing on his expertise to less knowledgeable persons. This form of the phrase was originally used to describe the relationship between wise master and eager apprentice, but today it is used colloquially as a term to describe any informal teaching process.

Bob: Son, there are mad females at the pool today!
Tom: Really?
Bob: Yeah, wasn't sure if you knew. Just trying to hip you to the game.
Tom: Good lookin' out.

Larry: Did you hear that Sean got indicted by the feds for insider trading?
John: Yeah, what a shame. I hate the S.E.C. Call it what you will but the only thing that he's guilty of is being hip to the game.
Larry: True, true.

Carlos chuckled as the freshmen obsessed over their reading assignments. Procrastination was not new to him; he was hip to the game.

Person A: See that girl over there?
Person B: Red shirt?
Person A: No, more to the left.
Person B: Tank top?
Person A: Yeah. She's hot, but what you DON'T know is that she only likes dudes under 5'7.
Person B: Really? That's amazing, how do you know that? I'm not sure how I feel about that...
Person A: Just hippin' you right now. Real talk.
Person B: Thanks, man. Respect.
