Side-Scroller

A genre of video game in which the characters exist on a 2D plane (or mostly 2D plane), and they run side to side, often with the ability to jump up or down to different points on the map to avoid obstacles or reach objectives. As the player runs to one side of the screen, the camera will follow them, allowing them to uncover more of the map as they go.

"Oh, is that another one of those side-scroller games?"

"Huh? Oh, yeah... I've just been running right forever. I think it's endless."

The Strobl

When one goes out with a girl, finds themself drunk with said girl (also drunk), and then she asks him to call her an uber because she is so inebriated. The man, wittingly, takes her phone and puts in his own address, not only having the girl come home with him, but getting her to buy their ride as well.

That guy is a total player, I heard he gave Amy the Strobl last weekend, and she didn't even realize when she woke up.

zoom and scroll

A tactic used by engineers and architects to trick coworkers or superiors into thinking they are actually working. The two actions refer to the controls on a mouse and their affiliations in AutoCad.

Nice job Mike! You sure are a hard worker. (Boss)
Stupid asshole! I just got him with the zoom and scroll! (Mike to Dan)

The "Groan And Scroll"

The action that you perform when not commenting on someone's facebook post that you don't know that well and in a sense "turn the other cheek", even though it is completely outlandish and they need to be called out on it.

Facebook status: 'You should read controversial politician name here's new book. Her stance on insert ridiculous political viewpoint here is something that is good for all of society. Praise be to insert a religious reference here!'

At this point... you think about replying, but decide instead to do the "Groan and Scroll" to keep scrolling on to other statuses thinking it's not worth it and better to leave them in their small minded world instead.

scrolling

In internet chat rooms and instant messaging, "scrolling" is the practice of turning what should be one line of text into multiple lines. This is an annoyance to other users, as scrolled messages take up more screen real estate.

the Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

1. A videogame nerd's wet dream because It has fucking dragons... and... people expect it to be as good as Oblivion. yeah.
2. The kind of game that will ruin people's lives by drawing them in with pretty landscapes, enticing them with streamlined gameplay, and addicting them with a massive ammount of content untill the videogame life supplants the real world life. Untill released, the trailer for Skyrim will be viewed with the same intensity as pornography.
3. See nerdgasm.

Did you see the new screenshots for the elder scrolls V: Skyrim ?

OH MY GOD YES, I'M SO EXCITED!
