Gear Rampage 

A phrase used by elite musicians to describe/initiate the surfing of the World Wide Web to gain further information about a variety of gear-related studies and professionals.

These studies may include:

-Old/New methods of recording and editing sound.
-Stalking of other fellow musicians (past and present).
-Building up a superior lingo about everyday things i.e "attenuate the volume of the nearfields"

"I found the perfect guitar during a Gear Rampage today!"

Musician:"How come you know so much about these thing?"
Elite Musician:"It's taken me many years of Gear Rampaging"

"You got ripped off paying so much for that microphone. Did you even go on a Gear Rampage before you bought it?"

Gear Bigot 

From "Gear-Head". A gear bigot is a car enthusiast prejudiced against certain automotive marques because of their country of origin; a domestic car enthusiast who, unaware of the high performance nature of many foreign cars, continues to think if it is not a Detroit product, it's not high-performance; a person who uses derisive terms to refer to foreign cars, i.e., "ricer", "rice-burner", "kraut can", etc.;
a person who doesn't care once-foreign cars are manufactured in the USA and continues to refer to them as
"imports" but by derisive terms.
He won't consider buying any car with a foreign-sounding name, even though it's made in the USA. He's a real gear bigot.

Gear Check

The awkward occasion where a person greets you with a standardized salutation but immediately proceeds to look you up and down to size up the gear you're rockin'. This visual violation usually starts with your shoes and slowly works its way up to your headpiece. Common culprits involve but are not limited to bouncers, interviewers, blind dates, and jail "line up" cops.
Bobby the Bouncer: "Hey man you and your buddy are gonna have to wait in line like everybody else. Oh hey what's up bro, come on in...these guys are losers."

Wing Man: "Yo son, you see that bouncer dude? He totally gear checked your cardigan right now and let those guys in with the shiny shirts.

Victim: "Eff this, let's go play some warcraft"
