metal detector

Basically a door frame that you walk through, it beeps if you have anything metallic on you.

while it is mainly used at airports and cruise terminals to stop people with guns and bombs, schools are now using it to stop students from bringing in iPods and phones

metal detectors are commonly accompanied by X-ray machines to scan your bags

Kid 1: Dude did you bring your iPod?
Kid 2: nah, I would've but the fucking metal detector beeped and they took it from me

deflecting

What people do when they are afraid that people will judge them.
They pretend to be someone they're not so when people don't like them it doesn't bother them because, hey, it's not them.

a lot of mean people are just deflecting.

drunk detector

A drunk detector is usually an obscenely brightly coloured or neon outfit or article of clothing. Said article of clothing is to be worn ONLY at multi-day evnts where the majority of people drink themselves senseless, and ONLY on the morning s of all but the first day of the event. The drunk detector is, to hung-over eyes, painfully bright and will cause the people with hangovers to cover their eyes, lose their way, stumble, fall, or even walk off the side of the road into the gutter/ditch. They will hate you afterwards, if they remember you that is.

My ankle-length neon paisly cape is a prime example of a drunk detector.

Bullshit Detector

1. The feeling one gets when they hear an obvious or absurd lie uttered by another person.

2. The feeling one gets when facing down an extremely tough group of foes that you have little to no chance of defeating them.

1. My bullshit detector went off when I heard that illegal immigrants have a right to be here.

2. I am being attacked by ten juggernaughts in Modern Warfare 2 on Veteran mode, using only an M9. Bullshit detected!

smoke detector

A device in your house that beeps when it detects smoke. It goes off when your toast starts to burn. Every house should have atleast one smoke detector.

If you don't have a smoke detector it would be a good idea to get one.
