Vogelism

The action commands given to the crowd by the vocalist of a band (usually a hardcore band). Also referred to as "mosh calls"

Examples of commonly used vogelisms:

"Lets see some stage dives."
"More stage dives!"
"More FUCKIN' stage dives!"
"Move Up!"
"C'MON!"
"Sing with me!"
"Move the person next to you."
"SMASH the person next to you!"
"Jump on someone's head!"
"C'MON!"

Mindforce vocalist Jay suggested "more kickboxing" from the crowd. This is a vogelism that I have never heard before.

No one has better use of vogelisms than the lead singer of Terror.

swing voter

People who have neither partisan nor ideological conviction at any detectible level. Most often found in the suburbs, these voters are often swayed by emotional appeals rather than philosophical, moral, or logical arguments. As such, these voters are emotionally torn pulled the two parties – they want to vote Republican as they live what they believe to be the capitalist dream of a comfortable, two-income, and sterile life in the ‘burbs (with the perception of being inoculated from those sticky urban social issues), at the same time they want to vote Democrat to assuage their guilt of their own mindless and unconscious lifestyle (such as talking racial tolerance but living in a racially homogeneous community, expressing horror at things like outsourcing jobs while drawing a paycheck from a company that does it every day, driving gas-guzzling SUVs while claiming their concern for the environment, and outwardly claiming support for their neighborhood public school systems while sending their own kids to private school). Often claiming to be independent, they criticize partisans on both sides for being closed-minded while believing there is nobility in their own indecision.

More and more people are swing voters and we wonder why no one votes (hint: if you don’t have the stones to decide where you stand, then either candidate, or even a non-vote, will do)

Voldemort Effect

Being fearful of naming someone or something. The phrase takes cue from the line associated with "Lord Voldemort" in the Harry Potter series: 'he who must not be named'.

The phrase was coined by British activist Maajid Nawaz in context of Islamism; analysts being fearful or reluctant to call out the ideology of Islamism as the underlying cause of Jihadist terrorism.

Left-liberals often succumb to the Voldemort Effect when discussing Islamic terrorism.

voxplain

Explaining a piece of news in a certain way (using statistics and evidence in the most wrong or misleading way - or merely lying outright) to support your argument; as is the trend with Vox.com's trend.

Have you seen Vox.com's newest article? Yeah, they really Voxplained away all of Hillary Clinton's illegal activites.
