Screener Season

Christmas for BitTorrent users.

Screener season takes place in early January to mid-February when special DVD copies of movies being considered for awards like the Oscars are sent out to voters.

These movies are usually still in theaters / cinemas at the time so the only other pirated copies around are poor quality cams.

Inevitably, these special copies find their way onto popular BitTorrent sites like Pirate Bay.

You can tell it's a screener because there's a watermark that pops up every so often saying "For Your Consideration".
Jim: Do you guys want to go see Django at the movie theatre on Thursday?

Dave: It's screener season next week dude, I can just hook my laptop up to the TV.

Jim: Oh sweet.

secrenager 

A secretary placed in a management role despite being uneducated and unqualified to hold this position.
"Jenny" is seen as a secrenager due to her talent of being a better typist and bullshitter rather than a skilled, able leader with a bachelor's degree.

“Jenny, we’ve decided you do a better job answering phones and talking to your co-workers than firing people. You’re such a secrenager!”

Change of screenery 

When one moves from their computer to their television (or vice versa) usually due to boredom.
When Jess resorted to playing Freecell on his computer he knew it was time for a change of screenery and made his way to the couch for a Battlestar Gallactica rerun on The Space Network.
