Sherlockian

Someone who is in the fandom for the BBC show Sherlock. Often wild and nearly always brewing theories as to what will happen in season 3 and beyond, they love everything that has to do with Sherlock, The Swishy Coat, and The Purple Shirt of Sex. The favorite ship in the fandom is Johnlock (John Watson and Sherlock Holmes). After only 6 episodes of the show, they have made fan fictions and such to fulfill their needs for Sherlock Holmes.
Person: Hey, I've just heard of this British show called Sherlock. Know anything about it?

Sherlockian: KNOW ANYTHING?!?! I know EVERYTHING. Sherlock and John is just, yes. I can't wait for season 3! Want to read my new fanfic?

Sherlocksmiths

Sherlocksmiths established themselves on may 12th 2017 in an renown Cornish winery. 3 years down the line and still slightly hungover, the sherlocksmiths saunter through life with their motto “why not” which can sometimes lead to mishaps when it comes to booze; dogs; houses and cake but hey ho and on they go spreading love and occasional looks of discontent at mr barkey their cockapoo.
And the sherlocksmiths lived happily ever after, though slightly hoarse from constant reprimand of mr barkey.

sherloki

A genre of slash fan fiction or art featuring Sherlock Holmes (Benedict Cumberbatch's version) and Loki Laufeyson (Tom Hiddleston's version) together. The combined power of both entities' cheekbones may prove lethal to many a fangirl.

Also see Hiddlesbatch.
Person 1: Doctor, what was her cause of death?
Doctor: My autopsy findings point at possible Sherloki overdose. Exploded ovaries and all, the usual.

Person 1: Sherloki? Not familiar with the term. Let me Google it though . . .
Doctor: NOOOOO!

explosion, thud

Doctor: That's seventy-two today! Damn you, Sherloki!

sherlocked

to have developed a product and just started shipping it, only to have Apple come along and provide exactly the same functionality in a system update. It happened to Karelia Software twice. Once with Sherlock and again with iWeb.
I'll bet the Pro HDR folks groaned and got drunk after the Apple event yesterday where they showed the HDR functionality built in to the OS. They got Sherlocked!
