The quipster took off his fedora, grabbed his Polaroid camera, and took an angled photo of a tree while listening to his iPod playing a band you've probably never heard of.
Girl 1: Oh my gosh! I love Tegan and Sara! They're an amazing band.
Quipster: I liked Tegan and Sara before they were cool and mainstream, which makes me cool. You're so lame. Everyone is so lame.
Lesbian 1: Dude, check out the cute dyke in the vest!
Lesbian 2: You mean the quipster playing the ukelele and harmonica?

Get the quipster mug.A word Norwegians are not very proud of having given to the world: it derives from Vidkun Quisling (1887-1945), a Norwegian politician who collaborated with the Nazis during World War II. He established his name as a synonym for "traitor", someone who collaborates with the invaders of his country, especially by serving in a puppet government.
It is, arguably, the worst and most grave insult a Norwegian can throw at another.

Get the King Kong Quisha mug.A quipportunity is the fleeting moment when a clever response is both timely, and funny.
Etymology: The word is an amalgam of 'quip' and 'opportunity' capitalizing on 1) the shared 'p' and 2) the fact that the 'portunity' portion of the word opportunity carries all of the meaning even without the displaced prefix.

I recently had a missed quipportunity when I told my sister that we saw the 2012 "Spider-Man" movie, and she asked how it was. I said it was "awesome," but the missed quipportunity was to reply, "Amazing" (since the name of the movie is "The Amazing Spider-Man").
