A burst of noise (a.k.a. "static") heard after a FM radio transmission ends. The random static sound is actually the radio trying to decipher the ambient background noise into meaningful audio. Usually this noise is hidden from the listener with the squelch function on the radio. In typical squelch systems, the audio circuit is turned off if the radio isn't receiving a signal of a certain minimum signal strength. The squelch tail occurs when the transmission has just ended and the radio circuitry doesn't respond quite fast enough. This is remedied by systems like STE or Squelch Tail Elimination by Motorola which send a brief subaudible tone right before the end of the transmission so that the audio circuit turns off before the modulated signal ends. Creative use of CTCSS like turning off the tone generation circuit on a repeater before the repeater tail will work for radios using tone squelch on both transmit and receive.

A game made for the Sega Game Gear and reproduced for the Sonic Gems Collection. One might think that this is one of the hardest games in the Sonic world, but some may consider it to be incredibly easy.
Tail's Skypatrol is so difficult, I'm not selling it back to Gamestop in 2 days, like I do all my other games.

A word which describes the time period as to when a "Hoopstache" has grown to a certain length, that it can by tied into a pony-tail.
Dude, the other day, Sarah was getting out the shower, and her hoop-tail got caught in the shower curtain. We had to cut it off and she was devastated, she'd been growing it for 3 years now.

In BDSM a "single-tail" is a single-lashed whip like a bull whip or a signal whip that is used by dog-sled riders. Floggers, cats, querts and other whips have 2 or more lashes. Paddles, canes, switches etc. are rigid and are less often referred to as "whips." Single-tails are particularly fierce whips.
I went to this crazy hot party last night. I saw this Dom, he didn't just spank his slave, he used a single-tail on her. Her back was a spider-web of welts. He was an artist. It was so fucking hot.
