Prog

1. An adjective denoting the complexity of a thing or event; when something seems far too difficult to undertake or complete; when one is involved in a "sticky situation." (Derives from the words "Progressive" and "Prog", used to describe certain types of rock/Metal music (e.g., Rush, Dream Theater, Genesis, Symphony X, Tool, etc.), which may use odd time-signatures and, at times, contain mind-blowing musicianship.)

2. My also refer to the manner in which one is dressed: One will usually sport a white button-down shirt and tight-fit pants (black jeans, leather, blue jeans, white pants).
"My Advanced Quantam Physics exam was so prog that my heart almost stopped as I was trying to complete it."

"Did you see John Paul at the party yesterday? He was proggin' it up with his clean-ass white Calvin Klein button-down. He dressed mad prog."

neo-prog

A label commonly used for new bands influenced by progressive rock. These bands frequently were also influenced by alternative/punk rock, unlike more traditional punk bands, so they have a different sound to them, but also have many of the qualities of progressive rock bands, such as odd time signatures, long songs, classical/jazzy influences, and complex layered songs.
Bands frequently called Neo-prog include: Radiohead, The Mars Volta, Tool, Coheed and Cambria, Dredg, Muse, Kasabian, etc.
