buzzband

A certain type of musical artist oriented toward "hipsters" and those who love them. This term was largely coined by the blog Hipster Runoff and then co-opted into the music blogosphere. These bands tend to attract a huge amount of hype, most importantly from Pitchfork leading up to their debut album, or in some cases, their second album that is supposed to represent a major advance on the first. Then, Pitchfork gives them a 9.1 or whatever and everyone flips out, and the "buzzband" becomes, at least, just another band.

Recent examples of buzzbands include Tapes 'n' Tapes, Grimes, Vampire Weekend, The xx, Cults, Fleet Foxes, and most recently, CHVRCHES.
Pitchfork is really hyping the latest buzzband's new album by positively reviewing all of their singles and posting multiple music videos.

Buzz on Maggie

A short-lived 2000s Disney TV cartoon created by Dave Polsky, debuted on 2005. It features the Maggie Pesky character, who resembles a friendly fly guitarist and serves as a main protagonist of the show. Many episodes focus on Maggie's daily life.

It's so sad that it lasted only one season, leading to the cancellation of the show on 2006. It has yet to appear on Disney+.
Person 1: Remember Buzz on Maggie cartoon? I watched it as a kid
Person 2: Yes! I also remember it, one of the best childhood shows!
Person 1: Yay! You're right

Buzz Numbering System

The system of counting used by Buzz, the fat older jock brother in Home Alone.

Basically it's useful, if you want to list three things. Instead of 1, 2, 3 or A, B, C...

A, 2 and D are used.
a) I'm not that lucky
2) We have smoke detectors.
d) We live in the most boring street in the United States, where nothing remotely interesting will *EVER* happen, period.

buzz words

These are trendy words and terms used by clueless corporate fatcats. These BMW driving morons are lost and scared when walking through a manufacturing facility alone. They are normally in small groups. The only words they say are "ISO, synergy, delight customers, world class blah, blah, blah.., global, just in time, black belt, six sigma, you get the picture."
"I can't believe that Ben asshole. He comes in at 10:00, says a few buzz words, surfs the net, goes to lunch, comes back at 2:00, makes a phone call, schedules a meeting, says a few more buzz words, takes a horrendous stinking shit, surfs the net again and then goes golfing."
