DIY Dilettante

Someone who spends all their time watching DIY shows, going to DIY websites, and reading DIY books but never actually does any DIY projects to completion.
Maggie’s roommate Sophia is a real DIY Dilettante. She’s got at least three dozen half finished projects lying around their apartment and she still hasn’t finished replacing the faucet in the 2nd bathroom.

"Honey, you need to face facts. You're a DIY Dilettante and you need to finish at least one of these projects. I mean, how hard is it to finish painting the living room wall?"

Aguilera Dilemma

Based on Christina's Aguilera's song Genie in the Bottle lyric:
"My body's saying let's go. ... But my heart is saying no."

When something should begin at the very moment, but not all information is pointing to it being a good idea. It can also can mean that the information is not yet available, thus causing the hesitation.
Engineer: "Should I go ahead and proceed implementing this feature?"
Project Manager: "Not sure... I have to check with the client."
Engineer: "Ah another Aguilera Dilemma."

N-Dileg

Usually referring to a person considering himself to be a ladies man, or that everyone truly like them. Disloyal, dishonorable, and usually backstabbing. Heavily associated with the likes of T-Fazio's. An N-Dileg will think that they are able to start new trends, and take pathetic examples of pride in new lingo they believe will spread rapidly such as "prish" or "peas&tanks." N-Dileg's are destined to be homo-sexual loner alcoholics.
N-Dileg: "Hey T-Faz, can I borrow your pod, peas and tanks, peas and tanks."

T-Faz: "Yea, let me get this thing out of my mouth first."

N-Dileg: "What? I can't und'stan' with that thin' in your mouth."

T-Faz: "Oh, sorry it was just Marky Mark. Here's my pod."

N-Dileg: "Tanks mang, I tot' prish."
